power/blower unit aside until needed.

MOUNTING THE HOUSING

MOUNTNG USING MOUNTING TABS

Refer to Figure 2.
1. Locate fan housing next to ceiling joist.
2. Use wood screws (not provided) to loosely attach housing to

ceiling joist through the keyhole slots in mounting tabs.

3. Adjust housing so that it will be flush with finished ceiling. For the

grille to fit properly, the housing's rim must not extend beyond
finished ceiling surface.

4. When housing is properly adjusted, tighten screws in slots.

MOUNTING USING HANGER BARS

Refer to Figure 3.
1. Insert hanger bars in slots provided in housing.
2. Locate fan housing between joists so that the bottom of the

housing is even with the planned finished ceiling. Extend the
hanger bars to the joists.

3. Use screws or nails (not provided) to secure hanger bars to ceiling

joists.

INSTALLING DUCTWORK

1. Refer to Figure 2. Place duct collar over flanges at discharge

opening of fan. Secure collar by snapping tabs into slots in flanges.

2. Run 4" round duct from fan's discharge opening to the outside and

terminate.

3. Connect duct to fan's duct collar.

WIRING

All wiring must comply with local codes and unit must be

properly grounded.
1. Run 120vAC house wiring (with ground) from wall switches to fan

location.

2. Insert and secure an approved box connector into wiring entrance

hole.

3. Pull wires through box connector and into junction box. Tighten

box connector.

4. Refer to Figures 4 and 5. If a single switch will be used to control

both the fan and the light, make wiring connections as shown in
Figure 4. If a double switch will be used for separate control of the
fan and light, make connections as shown in Figure 5.

5. Connect the green (or bare) ground wire to the green ground lead.
