Plan the Wiring
1.
The downdraft blower system draws 4 AMPS
and requires a 120 VAC, 60 Hz circuit.
2.
The unit has a 2 ft. long power cord with a
3-pronged plug. Plan to provide a grounded
outlet in a location which will allow the unit’s
power cord to reach. The outlet cannot be
located on a back wall. The outlet needs to be
mounted on the side wall of the cabinet or it
could be on the back wall of an adjacent cabinet
with access through an opening in the side wall.
(Based on local codes.)
Preparation
Changing Blower Discharge (Optional)
The blower is shipped with its discharge facing
DOWN. Follow these steps ONLY if:
• The position of the blower discharge needs to
be moved so the ductwork does not interfere
with the floor joists, plumbing or wiring below.
• It is necessary to rotate the blower discharge
to the RIGHT or LEFT.
Place the unit on its back on a table or work
surface.
