6. Mark and Cut Vent Opening 

■

Using a 

¹⁄₂" (13 mm) drill bit, drill a hole in each of the dots 

marked previously on either the wall or upper cabinet. Using 
the outside edges of the holes, mark the vent opening.

■

Using a jigsaw or keyhole saw, cut the vent opening.

■

Using the 7" (17.8 cm) round vent mounting plate, draw the 
vent opening outline on the underside of the cabinet:

-

Place the vent mounting plate on the bottom of the 
cabinet. Position the edge of the plate with the widest 
distance (A) between the hole and edge of the mounting 
plate against the wall. Position the side edges of the 
mounting plate between the dots marked previously.

IMPORTANT: The widest edge (A) of the vent mounting plate 
must be positioned against the wall.

-

Trace the 7" (17.8 cm) vent opening (solid line) on the 
cabinet bottom.

■

Using a jigsaw or keyhole saw, cut the vent opening 1" 
(2.5 cm) larger than the 7" (17.8 cm) hole traced (dashed line).

¹⁄₄" (3 cm) drill bit, drill the hole in the dot marked 

previously at the electrical strain relief.
