Using Plastic Expansion Anchors

1. After locating mounting holes, drill two (2) 5/16" diameter

holes into the wall.

2. Insert two (2) plastic expansion anchors provided into the

holes.

3. Tighten two (2) 10 x 1" screws provided into the plastic

expansion anchors. (See Figure 9)

Figure 9

Attention! The screw holes on the outer casing bottom are off-set

above the floor approximately 3/8". Do not over-tighten screws

and distort the off-set on the outer casing bottom. Distortion of

the outer casing bottom will not allow the lower front panel to be

attached to the furnace.
Installing Vent Assembly

Attention: DO NOT attempt to cut vent tubes. When you order

appropriate vent kit for measured wall depth the vent tubes will

fit together.

1. Place provided caulking beneath the collar of the outside

mounting plate. Use additional caulking to correct uneven wall

surface, such as clapboard.

2. Insert six inch air tube on outside mounting plate INTO six inch

air tube attached to air drop. Place four inch flue tube on vent

cap OVER four inch flue tube attached to combustion chamber.

Position the outside mounting plate so that six inch air tube

has a slight downward slope to the outside. The downward

slope is necessary to prevent the entry of rainwater. Attach

outside mounting plate to exterior wall with four (4) 10 x 1 1/2"

screws.

3. Installation is completed.
Reassembly And Resealing Vent-Air Intake System

When vent-air intake system is removed for servicing the furnace,

the following steps will assure proper reassembly and resealing of

the vent-air intake assembly.

Locating Electric Supply

A 7/8" diameter knockout is provided at the bottom of the left

and right side panels. A three-prong (grounding) plug assembly is

located within the control compartment (bottom) of the furnace.

Please remove 7/8" knockout from appropriate side panel when

routing plug assembly to an electrical outlet.
Installation of Three-prong (Grounding) Plug Assembly

1. Disconnect nylon cap on 3' plug assembly from nylon plug on

wiring harness. Remove 3' plug assembly from control compart-

ment (bottom) of the furnace.

2. Remove 7/8" knockout from appropriate side panel.

3. Insert nylon cap on 3' plug assembly into the 7/8" hole in the

side panel.

4. Connect nylon cap on 3' plug assembly to nylon plug on the

wiring harness.

5. Place 7/8" strain relief bushing around the cord of the 3' plug

assembly. Insert 7/8" strain relief bushing into the 7/8" hole in

the side panel.

Attention! The 7/8" strain relief bushing is located within the same

envelope as the Installation Instructions and Owner's Manual.
Attaching Furnace to Wall

Place collar on four inch flue tube against combustion chamber back.

Align clearance holes on collar with screw holes in combustion

chamber back. Attach four inch flue tube to combustion chamber

back with four (4) 10 x 1/2" screws.
Place collar on six inch air tube against air drop. Align clearance

holes on collar with screw holes in air drop. Attach six inch air tube

to air drop with eight (8) 10 x 1/2" screws.
Refer to Figure 5 for the location of the 7 1/2" diameter wall open-

ing for the furnace. After the wall opening has been located and

cut, position flue outlet on furnace in center of wall opening. Insert

tubes through wall opening. When attaching furnace to the wall

remove that portion of baseboard and molding on the wall which is

behind the furnace. Attach furnace to wall, at the outer casing top,

with two (2) plastic expansion anchors provided and to floor, at the

outer casing bottom, with two (2) 10 x 1 1/2" screws provided.
