1. Remove roofing nails from the upper 2/3 of the

shingles around the cutout area and carefully lift the
shingles to allow the back flashing sheet on the
blower housing to fit under them.

2. Center the blower ring in the 11" diameter hole,

making sure that the 1-1/4" diameter electrical wir-
ing hole aligns with the hole in the wiring box.

3. Attach the blower to the roof with the six screws

provided. All six holes in the back panel must be

shingles around the housing and flashing sheet as
well as the mounting screw heads.

5. Bring electrical wiring through the hole in the wiring

box and secure it according to local codes.

connector for the type of wiring being used. Con-
nect white to white, black to black, and the green or
bare wire to green. See Figure 4.

7. Replace wiring box cover and screws. Do not pinch

wiring under the cover.

8. Check for free movement of the damper before
