Chapter 3: Getting Started
Corner Post Installation for
the Floor-Mounted Hoods
Both left and right corner posts have been shipped
uninstalled. The one-piece corner posts are to be
installed once the upper and lower cabinet assemblies
have been properly positioned.
The edges on the corner posts fit directly onto the side
frames. The front inner edge of both corner posts are
held in place by stainless steel machine screws. The
outer back edge of both corner posts are held in place
with steel self-drilling screws. The screws are included
in the hood manual packet. See Figure 3-2 and 3-3.
Baffle Installation for the
Floor-Mounted Hoods
The baffles are critical to the proper airflow for the
hood. The Floor-Mounted Hood includes adjustable
baffles at three of the four slot locations. These are the
bottom slot, second from the bottom slot, and the upper
slot. Be sure the baffles are resting in the proper baffle
mount supports. See Figure 3-7 for various sizes of
baffles and their orientation.
Should you require more airflow at the bottom for
heavier than air gases then you can open up the two
lower adjustable baffles. Should you require more
airflow at the top you can open up the upper adjustable
baffle for lighter than air gases.
