Tools required:
Phillips screwdriver
3/8” Socket driver (extension
in electric drill is ideal)
Steps:
1. Position hood on its back (preferably up on a table or similar) and remove all baffle filters. Then raise up the
hood with a 2x4 under each side so there is at least
1” clearance between the hood and table.
2. Remove 4 screws holding the center bar (see diagram above). Make sure to hold bar with one hand while
removing final screw on each side so it doesn’t fall. Move center bar towards blowers until free of edges,
then pull out of the unit and set aside.
3. Identify the 6 nuts that hold the 2 blowers (3 for each)
and remove using 3/8” socket. Set nuts and washers
aside. One at a time slide to release remaining tab and pull blowers out. Set blowers down on back of the
hood, as far forward as wiring allows. ***Note: No need to touch or change any wiring/electrical cables.
4. Remove
the metal plate (with 10” hole) which was behind the blowers and set aside.
5. With same socket tool, take off the 8 nuts and washers to release the other solid plate currently mounted
inside the back of the unit. Put in place where the other plate was (top of unit) and secure using same nuts
and washers.
6. Now set the remaining (solid) plate in place at the back of the unit. ***Note: The solid one should now be
attached to the top of the unit, and the one
with the 10” hole should be against the back of the unit.
7. Move one blower into place on top of plate and weld screws at the back of the unit, using tab to slide
through both layers of steel (if you have trouble, pry the slots open with flat head screwdriver). Make sure
to slide tab in as far as possible.
8. Do the same with the second blower (can overlap the first one).
9. Secure the blowers using the same 6 washers and nuts removed in step 3.
10.
Make sure flex cable isn’t touching anything, specifically the front face of the unit. (If necessary twist and
bend it out of the way).
11.
Put back center bar the same way it came out. It is not reversible, so if holes don’t line up, flip and try the
other way.
Unit is now ready for mounting and installation.
Re-install baffle filters as final step after installation is completed.
