Original instructions
The following are instructions for mounting a cross support:
1. Level the base cabinets and the work surface. Work surface should be
placed flush with the back of the fume hood as shown in Figure 3-1.
2. Scribe a line on the wall or back of the base cabinet to locate the
support under the work surface.
3. Mount the support by attaching it to the wall or base cabinet.
4. Place the hood on top of the work surface and cross support.
The work surface should be smooth and durable, such as a chemically-resistant
epoxy resin. The surface should be nonporous and resistant to the acids, solvents,
and chemicals used in conjunction with the Protector Fume Hood. The work
surface should also contain a dished recessed area for containing primary spills.
