The piping can be connected in the
five directions indicated by 1, 2, 3, 4
and 5 in Figure 4. When the piping is
connected in direction 3, 4 or 5 cut
along the piping groove in the side or
bottom of the front cover with a saw.

1. Installing the Wall Bracket

1. Install the wall bracket so that it
is level from side to side. If the
wall bracket is tilted, condensate
water will drip to the floor.

2. Install the wall bracket so that it
is strong enough to withstand a
weight of 50 kilograms or more.

3. Fasten the wall bracket to the
wall with 6 or more screws
through the holes near the outer
edge of the bracket.

4. Check to insure that there is no
rattle of the wall bracket against
the wall.

Caution

• Always cut the wall hole uniformly
and straight when the wall pipe is
not used. If the hold center is not
aligned, condensate leakage can
occur.

• If the wall pipe is not used, the
wiring cable connecting the indoor
and outdoor units may become
frayed and cause electric current
leakage to earth.

3. Forming the Indoor Drain
Hose and Refrigerant Pipes

1. For 3 Left piping. 4 Right piping,

5 Bottom piping: Perform.
“Indoor Unit Wiring” before
performing the following steps

3.2 through 3.6.

2. Wrap the pipes of the indoor unit

that are visible from the inside
with decorative tape (Figure 7).

3. Insert the indoor unit piping into

the wall hole and bind the drain
hose and pipe together with
vinyl tape (Figure 8).

2. Cutting the Hole in the Wall
for the Connecting Piping

1. Cut a 65 mm. diameter hole in

the wall at the desired position
shown in Figure 6.

2. Cut the hole so that the outside

end is lower (5-10 mm.) than the
inside end.

3. Cut the wall pipe length to match

the wall thickness, insert it into
an accessory wall cap, fasten the
cap with vinyl tape, and insert the
pipe through the wall hole. (Wall
pipe and wall cap are procured
at the site).

4. For 3 left piping and 4 right
piping, cut the hole sligthly lower
so that the condensate water will
flow freely.

•To prevent breaking of the pipe,
avoid sharp bends. Bend the
pipe with a radius of curveture of
100 mm. or more.

• If the pipe is bent repeatedly at the
same place, it will break.

• Do not remove the flare nuts
from the indoor unit pipe until
immediately before connecting
the outdoor connection piping.

5. After passing the indoor piping
and drain hose through the wall
hole, hang the indoor unit on the
hooks at the top and bottom of
the wall bracket.

6. Check to insure that: (Ref.
Figure 10).

• The top and bottom hooks are
hooked firmly and the indoor unit
does not move to the front and
rear or left and right.

• The indoor unit is accurately
positioned horizontally and
vertically.

• The drain hose is at the bottom
of the wall hole pipe.

A good flare should have the
following characteristics:

- Inside surface is glossy and
smooth.

- Edge is smooth.

-Tapered sides are of uniform
length.

Bending

5. When bending the tube, be careful
not to crush it. To prevent crushing
of the tube, bend it gently and do
not bend the tube at a radius
curvature of less than 100 mm.

3. Remove the flare nut from the
unit and be sure to mount it on
the copper tube.

4. Make a flare at the end of copper
tube with a flare tool (Figure 14,15).

Outdoor Unit Installation

1. Install the unit mounting pads
(4 places) into the bottom channels
by tapping gently with a plastic or
rubber tipped hammer.

2. Set the unit on a strong surface
such as one made of concrete to
minimize shock and vibration and
to locate the unit securely.

3. Do not set the unit directly on the

ground.

Connecting the Unit with
Flaring Procedure.

Flaring (If piping is procured or cut at
the site).

1. Cut the copper tube to the

required length with a tube cutter.
It is recommended to cut approx.
30-50 cm. longer than the tubing
length you estimate.

2. Hold each pipe downward when

cutting and remove burrs at the
end of the copper tube with a tube
reamer or file. This process is
important and should be done
carefully to make a good flare
(Figure 12 and Figure 13).

6. If the copper tube is bent or pulled
too often, it will become stiff. Do
not bend the pipe more than three
times at one place.

Cautions before Connecting
Tubes Tightly

7. Be sure to apply a sealing cap
or water-proof tape to prevent
dust or water from getting into
the tubes before they are used.

8. Be sure to apply refrigerant
lubricant to the matching
surfaces of the flare and union
before connecting them together.
This is effective for reducing gas
leaks (Figure 16).

Union Flare nut

Connection

9. For proper connection, align the
union tube and flare tube straight
with each other, then screw in the
flare nut lightly at first to obtain a
smooth match (Figure 17).

When reaming, hold the tube end
downward and be sure that no
copper scraps fall into the tube.

10. Tighten the flare nut to the
specified tightening torque with
torque wrench and adjustable
wrench (Figure 18).
