Using l/8” drill, install locking screws (Item

bottom flanges (see Figure 14). If you need
additional holding strength, add two more
screws at upper sides of filler frame (marked
“A”). Also, two screws can be added at unit
sides (marked
“B”). However, if you add
screws at “B”,
you must use a 3 ‘16” drill bit

INSTALLATION IN SLIDING
WINDOWS THAT DO NOT HAVE SIDE
OR TOP TRACK.
The top flanges and one side flange of the air
conditioner must butt up to a flange on the
window. These window flanges must not be
more than 1’16” thick. On the side with the
open sash, the leading edge of the sash be-
comes the flange. The flange is on the top and
jamb side of most metal windows. Use a metal
angle or add wood to provide a flange for the
unit in windows where there is no side jamb
stop, or where there is a thick wood jamb
stop. Follow the three suggestions shown in
Figure 17.

crank handle so the window will open wide
enough and not interfere with shelf against
the bottom sill angle. Tie opened window to
the wall or frame to prevent the window from
swinging.
