In- stall 1 plastic bushing provided into the 1.5" hole in the floor support bracket on the exit side (see Figure 16). Install the second plastic bush- ing provided into the 1.5" hole in the outer casing through which the power cord will exit. Route power cord through both plastic bushings and plug the power cord into a prop- erly grounded 3-prong wall recep- tacle near the firebox.

b.If your fireplace system installation is recessed and if an outlet is not installed in your fireplace, you must install the GA3555 Outlet kit with cover in your fireplace which will supply a convenient 3-prong grounded electrical outlet for your blower. Refer to the installation manual provided with the model GA3555 accessory for instructions on wiring the duplex outlet.

Note: A qualified installer must make all electrical connections.

9.Check to make sure that all electrical cords are completely clear of the blower wheel and that there are no other for- eign objects in blower wheel. Turn blower on and check for operation. Turn blower off by rotating knob fully counterclockwise before continuing.

WARNING: Never touch the blower wheel while in operation.

10.Peel off backing paper and stick supplied wiring diagram decal near center of fire- box bottom approximately 3" to the right of the blower speed control (Figure 17).
