room air through the appliance to enhance heat output.
The GFK-160A blower system operates on 120 VAC, 60
Hz power. This is available through a receptacle in the
factory installed junction box. The junction box is mounted
in the bottom of the appliance behind the access panel. A
variable speed control is provided with the blower system
to provide quiet forced air flow at the desired speeds. A
temperature sensor switch, which automatically turns the
blower ON/OFF, is also provided with this kit.
Tools Required:
Powered screwdriver with Phillips head
bit; a fl ashlight is helpful.
Compare contents of carton with the actual parts received.
If any parts are missing or damaged, contact your dealer
before starting installation. Do not install a damaged
blower kit. See Figure 8.22.

during installation to assure maximum benefit from, and
safe operation, of the blower.
This blower is carefully engineered and must be installed
only as specified. If you modify it or any of its components,
you may cause a fire hazard and will void the WARRANTY.
In addition, such action may void the coverage provided
