Mounting the roof vent

Note on installation location
• The vent should be mounted on the roof on a level surface. When mounted on a
sloping surface, the roof hood must be rotated so that one of the three water
drainage holes is directed toward the incline. A tilt angle up to 20° will not affect
the performance of the vent when the motor is not running. The vent must be
installed freely accessible to the wind, regardless of the wind direction – this
means not positioned next to towering obstacles (fig. 1, page 3).
• The vent is designed for a roof 25 – 45 mm thick. If the roof is thinner, parts of the
vent can be shortened (fig. 3 A/B, page 3).
• The vent removes air from the interior. Make sure there is an adequate air supply!
The air intake opening must be at least 60 cm
Mounting the vent
➤ Select an appropriate installation location for the vent on the roof.
➤ Draw the location and size of the opening of 130 mm diameter (fig. 2, page 3).
➤ Pre-drill and cut out the hole on the roof carefully with a keyhole saw or similar
tool.
➤ Place the vent (fig. 3 1, page 3) on the opening and mark the two screw holes.
➤ Attach the vent (fig. 3 1, page 3) with the two screws (fig. 3 2, page 3).
