WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A BBQ TOP GREASE FIRE:
a) Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
b) Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee,
Peppercorn Beef Flambe’).
c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.
WARNING! TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A
BBQ TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a) SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL
TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE
DEPARTMENT.
b) NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN—YOU MAY BE BURNED.
c) DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishclothes or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
d) Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already know how to operate it.
2. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
3. The fire department is being called.
4. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
e) Follow the barbeque grill manufacturer’s instruction when using gas grills, cookers, or any propane appliances.
f) BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE

Easy Steps for Converting Hood to Rear Discharge (no wiring involved):
Tools required:
• Phillips screwdriver
• 3/8” Socket driver (extension
in electric drill is ideal)
Steps:
1. Position hood on its back (preferably up on a table or similar) and remove all baffle filters. Then raise up the
hood with a 2x4 under each side so there is at least 1” clearance between the hood and table.
2. Remove 4 screws holding the center bar (see diagram above). Make sure to hold bar with one hand while
removing final screw on each side so it doesn’t fall. Move center bar towards blowers until free of edges,
then pull out of the unit and set aside.
3. Identify the 6 nuts that hold the 2 blowers (3 for each) and remove using 3/8” socket. Set nuts and washers
aside. One at a time slide to release remaining tab and pull blowers out. Set blowers down on back of the
hood, as far forward as wiring allows. ***Note: No need to touch or change any wiring/electrical cables.
4. Remove the metal plate (with 10” hole) which was behind the blowers and set aside.
5. With same socket tool, take off the 8 nuts and washers to release the other solid plate currently mounted
inside the back of the unit. Put in place where the other plate was (top of unit) and secure using same nuts
and washers.
6. Now set the remaining (solid) plate in place at the back of the unit. ***Note: The solid one should now be
attached to the top of the unit, and the one with the 10” hole should be against the back of the unit.
7. Move one blower into place on top of plate and weld screws at the back of the unit, using tab to slide
through both layers of steel (if you have trouble, pry the slots open with flat head screwdriver). Make sure
to slide tab in as far as possible.
8. Do the same with the second blower (can overlap the first one).
9. Secure the blowers using the same 6 washers and nuts removed in step 3.
10. Make sure flex cable isn’t touching anything, specifically the front face of the unit. (If necessary twist and
bend it out of the way).
11. Put back center bar the same way it came out. It is not reversible, so if holes don’t line up, flip and try the
other way.
Unit is now ready for mounting and installation.
Re-install baffle filters as final step after installation is completed.

WARNING! Following are Manufacturer’s Suggestions.
Always Observe Local Building Codes.
Hoods installed in custom canopies constructed of combustible materials should be installed with the combustible
material structure a minimum of 36” above the cooking surface. Hoods installed in custom canopies constructed of
non-combustible materials, should be installed with the non-combustible material structure a minimum of 30” above
the cooking surface. Follow all instructions regarding minimum safe clearances and installation location. Failure to
do so may result in a safety hazard or fire. To reduce the risk of fire use only metal ductwork.
PART 2 Electrical Connection
WARNING!
Ensure that the power supply is disconnected before proceeding. Verify that the power supply matches the ratings
found on the appliance data label before proceeding. The complete appliance must be properly grounded at all
times when electrical power is applied. Do not ground the appliance with the neutral (white) house supply wire. A
separate ground wire must be utilized. Failure to complete electrical connections properly may result in damaged
or non-functional systems. Follow instructions carefully to ensure proper installation.
It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that a qualified person performs the electrical connection of this
appliance. The electrical installation, including minimum supply wire size, must comply with the National
Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-1990 (or latest revision) and local codes and ordinances. A copy of this
standard may be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association, 1 Batterymarch Park, Quincy, Massachusetts 02169-7471
Important Electrical Requirements: Observe all National and local governing codes and ordinances. Have all
electrical installation done by a qualified electrical installer. This Hood requires a 120 Volt, 60 Hertz electrical
supply of an individual properly grounded branch circuit protected by a 15 or 20 Amp circuit breaker.
The TRADE-WIND® S7200CD Series BBQ Hood is supplied with a 6.0 Amp three speed fan control.
For safety precautions, each Ventilation Hood should be installed in a GFCI protected branch circuit.

PART 3 Direction of Vent and Securing the Hood
MOUNTING HOLES:
Because the TRADE-WIND® S7200CD Series BBQ Hood was designed for all applications, no mounting holes
have been pre-drilled. This allows for custom applications for mounting. The hood should be attached to the
framing through the top and back, whenever possible. Remove the filters. Mark and drill screw holes through the
hood as required. Secure the hood by driving screws (provided by others) through the screw holes.
**NOTE: DRILLING THROUGH STAINLESS STEEL REQUIRES TITANIUM DRILL BITS. BE CAREFUL NOT TO
DRILL THROUGH THE UL LABEL OR INTO THE HOOD’S ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
PART 4 Use and Care
OPERATING CONTROLS:
Always activate the ventilator when using cooking appliances. Activate the ventilator a few minutes before starting
to cook to establish an airflow pattern within the room. Adjust the fan speed as needed. Adjust the dimmable
halogen lights as desired.
WARNING!
Do NOT operate the blower / ventilator system without the filters in place, or with dirty, grease laden filters.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS:
Do not operate the blower at a speed higher than necessary to remove the cooking exhaust. Turn off the unit once
the smoke and cooking odors have been eliminated. Clean filters and grease laden surfaces often to improve
efficiency.
CARE & CLEANING:
Proper cleaning is necessary to maintain performance and appearance, while also ensuring safe operation.
The frequency of cleaning should be adjusted according to the type and amount of cooking. Best results will be
achieved by cleaning soiled components as soon as possible. Filters must be cleaned regularly. Using the
aluminum knobs, lightly pull the filter toward the front of the liner while pulling the backside downwards. Replacing
the filter is just as easy as taking it out. For visual instructions on how to remove the filters visit our YouTube page
(https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVIbi_9hbuIATTYvz43oBA).
The filters may be cleaned by hand washing in hot water using a mild detergent solution, or by placing them in a
dishwasher. Locate holes on the sides of the filter. Put filter in dishwasher with holes facing up so detergent can
enter filters. Dry the filters completely before using again. Rinse and dry with a soft lint-free cloth. Always wipe
stainless steel surfaces with the grain. Never wipe across the grain. After cleaning, reinstall the filters carefully.
>>Most common scrubber type pads will scratch the hood.
CAUTION:
If a commercially available stainless steel cleaner is used, it is important to read the labels for chlorine compounds.
Chlorine is a corrosive substance, DO NOT USE. Follow polish manufacturer’s instructions.
HALOGEN LIGHT BULBS:
Hoods are designed for halogen light bulbs. They can be purchased at most home and/or grocery stores.
We endeavor to incorporate the best technology provided to our industry, in manufacturing the
TRADE-WIND®products, therefore, we reserve the right to change models, mode of operation,
and specification without prior notice.
