Unpacking Your System
Carefully remove your unit from its packaging. Inspect for damage. If
damage is noted, contact your shipping carrier and file a claim.
Assemble the Unit
1. Remove the parts bags and/or box from the lower compartment.
2. Lay the unit on its back, as near as possible to its intended final
location.
NOTE:
The unit can be operated without casters, on its back in a
horizontal orientation, as long as there is sufficient space at either end for
air intake and output. Make sure to properly strap or otherwise secure it
to a base to avoid unintentional movement.
3. Attach the caster assemblies (ref
) to the bottom of the unit.
a. Remove the screws from the outer corners of the cabinet bottom.
b. Position the caster assembly along the outer edge of the unit and
line up the screw holes.
c. Use the removed screws to attach the caster assembly.
d. Repeat for the other side.

4. Use the included screws to attach the round or oval duct transition
plate to the top of the unit (
).
NOTE
: The transition plate
must
be installed even if the unit is being used as an air scrubber.
5. Carefully lift the unit to a vertical position on its casters. HINT:
Lock the casters before lifting or tilting up the unit.
6. Move the unit in its final position and lock all four casters.
7. For negative-air setup, do these steps. If used as an air scrubber,
skip to step 8.
a. Use a compression clamp to attach 10- or 12-inch round flexible
ducting (supplied by others) to the transition plate on top of the
unit.
b. Run the flexible ducting as recommended by the mechanical plan
and attach to a transition piece (ceiling register box, etc.,
purchased or fabricated on site) to complete a path for the air to
exhaust from the negative-air area. Caulk or tape all seams. Run
the flexible duct per applicable codes and requirements, with no
hard bends or obstructions.
8. Remove the bottom front door, then the top door over the blower
section. Inspect the HEPA filter and make sure it has not been
dislodged or damaged during shipping, that the side bolts and nuts
near each corner are tight and the HEPA filter is held securely in
place, and the seal around the top edge of the filter is in place.
9. Make sure the first-stage pre-filter is in place and not damaged.
10. Replace the top door over the blower, then the bottom front door.
11. Plug the unit into a grounded 115V outlet.

Operating Instructions
IMPORTANT:
Always lock the casters during operation.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure there are no paper or lightweight loose
objects near the floor by the unit that could be sucked into the bottom air
intake or front opening of the bottom front door. We recommend that you
regularly clean or sweep the floor around the unit to extend the life of the
pre-filter.
• Locate the control panel on the front upper left (
).
• Rock the green ON/OFF switch up to the ON position. It should
illuminate. There will be a slight delay before air begins to move as
the blower motor has a built-in 3-second operational delay.
• For the 015 model, select the fan speed desired.
• Observe the unit running for a short time to make sure there are no
unusual noises, that air is freely flowing through the transition and
ducting, and the unit is not shifting position. Make sure the casters are
locked!
