Remove the 3 screws that secure vent elbow to furnace, rotate furnace vent elbow to position desired, re-install screws. The factory-supplied vent elbow does NOT count as part of the number of vent connector elbows.

The vent connector can exit the furnace through one of 5 locations on the casing.

1.Attach the single wall vent connector to the furnace vent elbow, and fasten the vent connector to the vent elbow with at least two field-supplied, corrosion-resistant, sheet metal screws located 180_ apart.

NOTE: An accessory flue extension is available to extend from the furnace elbow to outside the furnace casing. See Table 18 for accessory listing. If flue extension is used, fasten the flue extension to the vent elbow with at least two field-supplied, corrosion-resistant, sheet metal screws located 180_ apart. Fasten the vent connector to the flue extension with at least two field-supplied, corrosion resistant sheet metal screws located 180_ apart.

2.Vent the furnace with the appropriate connector as shown in Fig. 35-47.

3.Determine the correct location of the knockout to be re- moved.

4.Use a hammer and screwdriver to strike a sharp blow between the tie points and work the slug back and forth until the slug breaks free.

!CAUTION
