Continued

5.Be certain that all wire terminals are securely attached to ter- minals on blower motor and that the screw retaining the green ground wire is tight.

6.Place control knob provided on plastic control shaft of speed control.

7.Mount the speed control on the front leg of the left floor sup- port bracket using 2 screws provided (see Figure 15).

8.Plug in blower power cord.

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 1 plastic bushing provided into the 1.5" hole in the floor support bracket on the exit side (see Figure 16). Install the second plastic bushing provided into the 1.5" hole in the outer casing through which the power cord will exit. Route power cord through both plastic bushings 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 if an outlet is not installed in your fireplace, you must install the GA3555 Outlet kit with cover in your fireplace which will supply a convenient 3-prong grounded electrical outlet for your blower. Refer to the installation manual provided with the model GA3555 accessory for instructions on wir- ing the duplex outlet.

Note:A qualified installer must make all electrical connections.

9.Check to make sure that all electrical cords are completely clear of the blower wheel and that there are no other foreign objects in blower wheel. Turn blower on and check for opera- tion. Turn blower off by rotating knob fully counterclockwise before continuing.

CAUTION: Never touch the blower wheel while in operation.
