Do not plug in power cord until vent system is completely installed. The Power Vent operates on 110-120 Vac, therefore a grounded outlet must be within reach of the six (6) foot flexible power cord supplied with the unit (see fig. 1). The power cord supplied may be used only where local codes permit. If local codes do not permit the use of a flexible power supply cord:

a.) Make sure the unit is unplugged from wall outlet. Remove screws and open panel on front of control box.

b.) Cut the flexible power cord, leaving enough to be able to make connections, then remove the strain relief fitting from box.

c.) Install suitable conduit fitting in side of enclosure and then follow (d.) and (e.) below.

d.) Splice field wiring into existing wiring using code authorized method (wire nuts, etc.).

e.) Be certain that neutral and line connections are not reversed when making these connections.

f.) Close panel on the side of control box, make sure that access panel is secured shut.

CAUTION

LABEL ALL WIRES PRIOR TO DISCONNECTION WHEN SERVICING CONTROLS. WIRING ERRORS CAN CAUSE IMPROPER AND DANGEROUS OPERATION. VERIFY PROPER OPERATION AFTER SERVICING.
