Required Installation Hardware
Optional Installation Hardware
On a flat surface such as a table. press the spring push pin and adjust the Left Extension Arm to the Left side of the Horizontal Bracket.
Then install the Right Extension Arm into the Right side of the Horizontal Bracket. These will be adjusted ina later step.
For windows where the front of the bracket to sit on the window sill. adjust the extension arms to your window sill width. For windows where the front of the bracket will rest against the vinyl! lip, these arms will be adjusted in a later step.
NOTICE
The Angled Support Arms should come installed into the Main Supports from the factory.
The small tabs on the sides of the Angle Support Arms must sit on the inside bottom of the Main Support.
A. Before placing the bracket in the window, allow the Angled Support Arms to rotate down and make sure they don't fall out of the Main support arms.
Place the support bracket assembly in your window opening on the bottom windowsill. The Horizontal Bracket and Extension Arms must be located on the indoor side of your window frame.
For installations where the bracket sits on the window sill, secure the bracket to the window (reference Step E).
WARNING: Maintain control of the bracket until installation is complete.
NOTICE
The front of the Support Bracket should be located on the indoor side of the window frame (refer to image on the left).
