STANDBY POWER UNIT

Model 475LM Owner’s Manual

INSTALLATION

Mounting the 

standby power unit (SPU)

 can be done using one 

of two methods. The SPU can be mounted directly on top of the 
motor unit or it can be secured on a structural support just 
above it.

1. Mounting the SPU Directly to the Motor Unit.

•   Position the SPU on top of the motor unit. Make sure the 

motor unit power cord is drawn out from beneath the SPU. 
The SPU should sit firmly on top of the motor unit. Adjust 
angle iron placement so that it is out of the way of the SPU’s 
installation (Figure 1).

•   Align the two screw slots on the SPU to the back chassis 

holes.

•   Secure the SPU to each side of the chassis flanges with 3/4" 

screws provided.

2.  Mounting the SPU Directly to a Structural Support.

•   After the motor unit has been installed, the SPU can be 

mounted to either the ceiling or a wall within 3' (.9 m) of the 
motor unit.

•   Position the SPU as desired to a structural support (ceiling 

joist or wall stud) (Figure 2).

•   Attach the SPU to the support using the mounting holes on 

either side of the SPU.

•   Secure the SPU using the 1-1/2" lag screws (provided).

3. Connect the SPU to the Motor Unit.

•   Disconnect the motor unit from the electrical outlet.
•   Connect the SPU cord into the connector on the 

end panel on the motor unit. Connect the motor 
unit to the electrical outlet. The SPU will activate 
and all LEDs will turn on for 3 seconds.

•   The green LED will begin flashing, indicating the 

SPU is charging from the motor unit.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

 Installation of SPU when 

permanent electrical power is not available (such as 
new construction and the electricity is not installed) 
may damage the batteries. Unplug SPU after testing 
to prevent damage.
