Installing the PROCESSOR
Preparing the WOOD FRAME
Note
This procedure may be easier to do if you mount the WOOD FRAME to the wall before you cut the opening and drill
the holes. However, if you wish, you may cut the opening and drill the holes before you mount the WOOD FRAME
to the wall.
[34] Check that the dimensions and location of the opening cut in the wall are correct. See the figure below for the
correct dimensions.
[35] Apply lighttight CAULK to the wall around the WALL OPENING on the outside of the darkroom.
[36] Mount the WOOD FRAME securely to the wall.
[37] Cut an opening in the WOOD FRAME for the PROCESSOR. See the figure for the correct dimensions of the
hole.
[38] If there is no need for connections through the WOOD FRAME, go to section “Installing the GASKET on the
WOOD FRAME” on Page 23.
