INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE OPTIONAL FAN
120 Volt AC power is needed for the fan switch 
and blower. The fan can be hard wired if desired. 
The  receptacle box should be installed  on  the left 
hand side of the unit by a qualifi ed electrician. The 
neutral (wider) slot of the polarized receptacle 
should be at the top.
Unit must be grounded at all times. Do 
not cut the ground terminal off under any 
circumstances.
1)  Shut the power off.
2)  Remove the standard fl ush door and the 
optional bay door, if installed. Open the 
bottom louver door. 
3)  Remove the 2 screws holding the Burner 
ON/OFF switch and bracket to the bottom 
louver and lift the assembly out.
4)  Turn the fan base on its side (with the base 
facing towards you) and then slide the fan 
in towards the rear of the unit. Turn the fan 
upright and slip it over the two mounting 
studs. Take care not to damage the insulation 
on the fan base. Ensure that the fan blades 
do not rub against the valve tubing.

the control boxes to join them together.
10) Secure the fan wires and power cord by 
attaching one of the adhesive backed wire 
holder clips (Part #910-199) onto the stove 
base. Use the second clip to bundle up the 
wires approximately 4" from the control box. 
Ensure that there is no interference with the 
wires when the louver is closed and that 
no wire will touch the hot metal surfaces 
or sharp edges.
11)  Plug the fan power cord into the rear end of 
the receptacle box to provide the maximum 
clearance from the louvers.

your home. Ensure you maintain these fan 
motors on a regular basis by vacuuming 
out the fan blades and housing using a soft 
brush nozzle.
