OPTIONAL SINGLE SPEED BLOWER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Attention: Install blower assembly before connecting gas inlet supply line.

Wiring

The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, if an exter- nal electrical source is utilized. This appliance is equipped with a three-prong [grounding] plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug. For an ungrounded receptacle, an adapter, which has two prongs and a wire for grounding, can be purchased, plugged into the ungrounded receptacle and its wire connected to the receptacle mounting screw. With this wire com- pleting the ground, the appliance cord plug can be plugged into the adapter and be electrically grounded.

Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servic- ing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.

Note: Junction box on right side of firebox must be pre-wired at time of firebox installation for use with blower assembly. A standard wall ON/OFF wall switch or optional SCV1 Vari- able Speed Control Kit should be installed to activate pow- er to the Firebox, and control the operation of the FBB5 Blower assembly. It is recommended that installation of the wiring be performed by a qualified electrician. See Figure 25.

2.If applicable, turn OFF electric supply to firebox.

CAUTION: ALL WIRING SHOULD BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN AND SHALL BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL LOCAL, CITY AND STATE BUILDING CODES. BEFORE MAKING THE ELECTRI- CAL CONNECTION, MAKE SURE THAT MAIN POWER SUPPLY IS DISCONNECTED. THE APPLIANCE, WHEN INSTALLED, MUST BE ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES, WITH THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE ANSI/NFPA 70 (LAT- EST EDITION).

A factory installed junction box is located on the lower right side of the firebox. Wiring must be fed to the junction box and attached to the receptacle that is provided. From right side of the firebox, remove the screw securing the junction box assembly. Leave approximately 6” of wire in the junction box for connection.

Attach black wire to one side of the receptacle and white wire to opposite side of receptacle. The ground wire should be at- tached to the green (ground) screw.

Install the recepticle into the junction box. Attach cover plate.
