6.INTERNAL BLOWERS Internal blower downdrafts are shipped from the factory ready to vent in the down position. If you need to vent back, left or right, then the blower must be repositioned.

TO VENT TO THE LEFT OR THE RIGHT

Four hex nuts attach the blower box to the downdraft body. Remove all four nuts and carefully remove the blower box. To vent left or right, simply rotate the blower box 90° to the left or right and re-assemble.

TO VENT TO THE REAR

Venting to the rear requires that the blower be repositioned inside the blower box as indicated in FIGURE 9. The blower is attached to the blower box by 6 screws. Remove the blower from the blower box. Note the position of the angle mounting rails on each side of the blower. To vent to the rear, both mounting rails must be repositioned on the blower as illus- trated in FIGURE 10. Attach the mounting rails as indicated. Re-attach the blower to the blower box.
