Assembly Instructions
STEP 1
Open the shipping crates and separate the parts
according to the size of the unit. (See Figure No. 1 on
attached "PARTS LIST")
STEP 2
Place the two BASE ENDS, BASE SIDES and
INTERMEDIATE HOOD SUPPORT ASSEMBLY in their
approximate relationship to each other. (See Figure 2)
Fasten together the BASE ENDS to the BASE SIDES
using three (3) 1⁄4-20 fasteners per corner for 5 inch high
base and four (4) 1⁄4-20 fasteners per corner for 12 inch
high base. Note: Fasteners should be hand tightened
only until step 4. On some units where the difference

between the hood width and throat width is greater than
32 inches, a REINFORCING PLATE is required in the
corners of the BASE (See Figure 2, DETAIL "A") Now
bolt the BASE SIDES to the INTERMEDIATE ASSEMBLY,
using eight (8) 1⁄4-20 fasteners per INTERMEDIATE
