Installation and Operation Guide

Before drilling any holes check that the area behind the surface to be drilled is clear of any
electrical cables, pipes etc. Fixing to a solid joist or 50mm deep truss is recommended.
Whenever possible protect the hob top with cardboard or similar.
1. Before commencement unpack the canopy hood and check that it functions correctly.
2. Use a plumb line to mark the centre of the cooking surface on the ceiling.
3. Using the upper support frame as a template mark the eight holes on the ceiling.
4. Ensure that the support frame front edge is parallel with the bench top and
that the plumb line mark is central to the mounting screw holes.
5. Drill holes in the ceiling at the points marked.
a. When fitting to a 50mm truss drill a pilot hole through
the ceiling and the truss.
b. If securing to any other ceiling type please use appropriate
fasteners and follow their instructions of use carefully.
For the ducting mark out and cut a Ø170mm hole in the ceiling.
Note that this hole is not central to the four mounting screw holes.
6. Fix the upper support frame to the ceiling using the screws supplied.
7. Secure ducting to the top of the motor housing, use duct tape if required.
Solid ducting, galvanized or plastic is recommended. Use flexi
ducting only in difficult installations and if used ensure that it is pulled tight.
The smoother, straighter and shorter the ducting the quieter and more
efficient the canopy hood will perform. Tape the power plug to somewhere
near the top of the ducting, this will enable easy access to the plug after
installation.
8. Secure the lower part of the support frame to the top of the canopy hood
using the screws provided.
9. Strip the plastic protective film off the two chimney pieces and place these
over the lower support frame. The lower chimney will rest on top of the
canopy hood and the upper chimney will be extended and secured to the
upper support frame. To ensure that the upper chimney does not slip
inside the lower chimney, secure it so that the upper chimney is showing.
Duct tape or two screws/nails through the upper chimney securing holes
will do this.
10. Offer the canopy hood, lower support frame, chimneys and ducting
up to the upper support frame and secure in place with the four screws
provided. The dimension between the filters and the cooking surface
should be in line with those suggested in the ‘height of canopy hood’
section. An additional person will be required for this operation or a
simple support frame manufactured to the correct dimensions will aid
assembly of the island canopy hood.
Finish assembling the ducting ensuring the path is as short, straight
and smooth as possible.
Connect to the power supply and switch on the power to the
canopy hood.
Slide the upper chimney piece up to the ceiling and secure in place
with the four screws supplied.
Remove the transport tape that holds the oil cup in place under
the motor unit and fit the filters.
