the ends of the hangers to bolt unit to the hatch collar.
After unit is in place, check to make sure it is level. If
required, add spacer washers to level the unit. Then bolt
hanger brackets to the collar to prevent them from mov-
ing or becoming unhooked.
4. Rotate blade by hand to make sure it is not
obstructed.

bered motor leads and the numbered control box termi-
nals as listed. See Fig. 3 and wiring diagrams.
