Please do not remove the wire harness when
installing the fans.
4) Move both fans and the wire harness
together to the front of the fi replace.
5) Insert Fan A in from the left sideways (see
diagram below). The easiest way to insert
Fan A is to put Fan B in front of the louver

studs. Then fl ip the fan and position it onto
the mounting studs.

wire holder clips (Part #910-199) onto
the fi replace base. Use the second clip
to bundle up the wires approximately 4"
from the control box. Ensure that there is
no interference with the wires when the
louver is closed and that no wire will touch
the hot metal surfaces, fan blades or sharp
edges.
13) Plug the fan power cord into the rear end of
the receptacle box to provide the maximum
clearance from the louvers.

not lubricate them. Make sure you vacuum
the fan area on a regular basis.

These fans collect a lot of dust from within
your home. Ensure you maintain these fan
motors on a regular basis by vacuuming
out the fan blades and housing using a soft
brush nozzle.
