2. Remove junction box cover from supply end.

3. Remove desired knockouts and route supply cable

through openings using proper fitting. Using means to
protect finish, place heater face down with bottom
toward wall and positioned where heater location is
desired.

4. Locate wall studs and line up center of stud with notch

along bottom edge of heater. Remove keyhole
mounting hole in line with notch. Provisions for
mounting repeat at 4” intervals to aid in locating 16” or
24” on center stud.

NOTE: Use of carpenters square placed along bottom
edge and lined up with notch allows placement of
screws 4 3/4” above mounting surface. The screw of
nail may be run into 1/4” of surface. With proper
keyhole opening removed, heater may be raised
slightly and hung over screw head. Tighten screws
further after in place. Keyhole opening is intended to
accommodate a No. 8 screw with a head diameter of
3/8” maximum. If nailing directly through heater, use a
3/16” knockout below baffle and heating element.

5. Remove wire nut connector (do not open crimp

connector). Make connections in the wiring
compartment. See wiring diagram. Connect ground
conductors using approved connector.

6. Replace wiring compartment cover making sure all

screws are secured in place.

7. Turn on power supply. Adjust thermostat for desired

temperature.

THE FOLLOWING STEPS SHOULD BE TAKEN
FOR INSTALLATION

Verify input voltage and name plate voltage of heater
for compatibility. Wiring can be done from either end of
heater. A corner section is available for right angle
mounting of two baseboard heaters and allowance
should be made for locating wiring. See Figure 1 for
knockout locations.

1. Remove wiring compartment from supply end.

2. Loosen screw in built-in cable clamp. Insert supply cable

into wiring compartment allowing sufficient cable length
for connection to heater. Tighten cable clamp screw.
Ensure that the clamp is only on sheath portion of the
supply cable.

3. Push excess supply cable back into wall.

4. Repeat steps 4 through 7 above.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

mended that heaters be cleaned to eliminate any
accumulation of dust or lint. Before cleaning, make sure the
power is OFF at the circuit breaker panel and the heating
element cool. Do not remove front cover during cleaning.
Use the narrow suction attachment of the vacuum cleaner
and move from end to end and above and below fins and
cabinet. When cleaning is complete, turn power ON.
