Install the Downdraft

Mounting screws

Leveling bracket– flange facing out

Leveling bracket– flange facing in

1.Set the downdraft into the opening. Extend the leveling brackets to the floor of the cabinet so the downdraft sits straight. (NOTE: Leveling brackets can be removed and re-attached in other positions. The bottom flange may have to face inward in tight cabinet installations.)

2.Secure the downdraft to the countertop

as follows: Hold the downdraft against the back of the countertop cut-out and tighten the 2 mounting screws (one on each end of unit) on the underside of the countertop. Use a wood shim between the screw and the underside of granite countertops.

3.Screw the leveling brackets to the bottom of the cabinet. Tighten the screws holding the leveling bracket to the unit on each side.

Install the Ductwork

CAUTION- BEFORE CUTTING A HOLE IN CABINET FOR DUCTWORK: Check for interference with floor joists, wall studs, electrical wiring or plumbing.

31⁄4″ x 10″ to 6″ RD. Transition

Blower

Collar

Screws6″ RD. Elbow &

ductwork

1.Cut the hole in the cabinet as well as holes in the wall or floor as necessary.

2.Mount the roof or wall cap and work back towards the cabinet, attaching all ductwork, elbows and transitions as previously planned. Tape all ductwork connections to make them secure and air tight.

3.Connect the ductwork (and transition,

if required) to the downdraft. If necessary, LOOSEN wing nuts and screws that hold the blower in place, and slide the blower left or right to meet the ductwork. Re-tighten the screws and wing nuts.

NOTE: A 31⁄4″ x 10″ collar is provided for installers who prefer to rivet the cutwork to the unit. This will allow the blower to be removed and replaced easily in service situations without disturbing the ductwork.

Install the Electrical Wiring

1.Mount a standard wiring box, with

3-pronged outlet, inside the cabinet. Make sure the downdraft’s power cord can easily reach it.

2.Run the appropriate power cable into the cabinet and connect it to the outlet.

3.Plug the downdraft’s power cord into the outlet.
