Connect Ductwork - GE CV966 Owner's Manual And Installation Instructions

INSTALL CEILING BRACKET
5
The ceiling bracket must be installed when the duct
cover is used to span 24" or more height above the hood.
The bracket will hold the decorative duct cover in place
at the top.
Note: The ceiling bracket is not required when using only
the 12" section of the duct cover.
• Install the 2 small screws into the sides of the duct
bracket. Remove the screws. Pre-tapping the holes will
insure ease of final installation.
• Match center notch on the bracket to the centerline
on the wall and flush against the ceiling.
• Mark the 2 screw hole locations.
• Drill 2/8" pilot holes in marked bracket location.
• If pilot holes do not enter studs, enlarge the holes to
3/8" and install wall fastener anchors.
• Secure the bracket to the rear wall with wood screws
and washers. Use wall anchors if needed.
Note: Bracket has 2 sets of holes. Use larger holes
for wall fasteners or wood screws with washers. Use
smaller holes for wood screws with washers.
