STEP 4 The WSD SLEEVE must also be installed with a downward

tilt toward the outside of the building. If a level is placed

so that it rests on the FRONT and BACK UNIT REST as

shown in Figure 8, a properly installed unit provides a ½

bubble slope to the outside of the building.

STEP 2 Once the SLEEVE has been installed, check the LEVEL

lit

Apply shims, if required, to maintain the proper slope.

STEP 3 Caulk the perimeter of the entire opening on the inside and

the outside between the SLEEVE and the WALL.

STEP 4

NOTICE

SLEEVE projections and leveling precautions

must be observed to prevent the entry of

water into the room.

After unpacking the WSD SLEEVE from the carton, remove

the FRONT PANEL. Place the WSD SLEEVE in the wall

opening following the instructions given in the INSTALLA-

TION REQUIREMENTS. Attach the SLEEVE to the

INSIDE WALL by driving two #12A x 2" screws in each side

of the SLEEVE (see Figure 7). Shim at the top of the

SLEEVE, midway between the sides. Drive one #12A x 2"

screw in the top of the sleeve, close to the shim. Install

screws from inside the SLEEVE. If the wall opening is not

framed with wood, use expansion anchor bolts or molly

(toggle) bolts (not provided).

The front panel removed in Step 1 above must be remoun-

ted back in place if masonry work is to be done and/or if the

"WallMaster" CHASSIS is to be installed at a later date.
