1. Cut hole in cabinet as well as holes in wall or floor as
necessary.
2. Mount the roof or wall cap and work back towards the cabinet,
attaching all ductwork, elbows and transitions as previ-
ously planned. Tape all ductwork connections to make them
secure and air tight.
3. Connect ductwork (and transition, if required) to downdraft. If
necessary, LOOSEN nuts and screws that hold the blower in
place, and slide blower left or right to meet ductwork. Re-
tighten screws and nuts.
Note: A 3¼" x 10" collar (3¼" x 14" collar for exterior blower)
is provided for installers who prefer to rivet the ductwork to the unit.
This will allow blower to be removed and replaced easily in service
situations without disturbing ductwork.

can be removed and re-attached in other positions. Bottom
flange may have to face inward in tight cabinet installations.)
2. Secure the downdraft to the countertop as follows: Hold the
downdraft against the back of countertop cut-out and tighten-
ing the two mounting screws (one on each end of unit) on
underside of countertop. Use a wood shim between screw and
underside of granite countertops.
3. Screw leveling brackets to bottom of cabinet. Tighten screws
holding leveling bracket to unit on each side.
