2.Attach the power cord to the blower motor by firmly pushing the two female terminals at the end of the power cord onto the two spade terminals on the blower motor.

3.Attach green ground wire from power cord to blower housing using screw provided (see Figure 24). Tighten screw securely.

4.Place the blower under the firebox and against the lower rear wall of firebox outer wrapper with the exhaust port directed upward. Align the holes in the top mounting tabs of blower with holes in wall of wrapper (see Figure 24). Using the two screws provided, mount blower and tighten screws securely.

5.Be sure all wire terminals on blower are attached securely. Make sure the screw retaining the green wire is tight.

a.If your fireplace system is installed as a freestanding unit with an accessory mantel, determine whether the power cord will exit the left side or the right side of the firebox. Install one plastic bushing (provided) into the 1 1/2" hole in the outer casing through which the power cord will exit. Install the sec- ond plastic bushing (provided) into the floor support bracket if exiting through the right side (see Figure 26, page 11). Route power cord through (both) plastic bushing(s) and plug the power cord into a properly grounded 3-prong wall receptacle near the firebox.

b. If your fireplace system installation is recessed and/or pre-wired, a qualified installer must make all electrical con- nections for the outlet kit included with the fireplace.

11.Check to make sure that the power cord is completely clear of the blower wheel and that there are no other foreign objects in blower wheel. Turn blower on and check for operation. Turn blower off by rotating knob fully counterclockwise before continuing.

CAUTION: Never touch the blower wheel while in operation.
