power cord through exit hole and plug the
power cord into a wall receptacle near the
rebox.
b. If your rebox installation is recessed
and/or pre-wired, plug the power cord into
the duplex outlet provided. Refer to your
rebox owner’s manual for instructions
on wiring the duplex outlet.
CAUTION: Never touch the
blower wheel while in operation.

pletely clear of the blower wheel and that there
are no other foreign objects in blower wheel.
Turn blower on and check for operation. Turn
blower off by turning knob fully counterclock-
wise before continuing.

Model BKT Installation
Note: When installing the BKT thermostati-
cally-controlled blower, you must rst secure the
thermal switch bracket to the blower if it has not
already been factory installed.
1. Place the green ground wire with ring termi-
nal between the bottom hole on the thermal
switch bracket and the top ear hole on the
blower assembly. Insert the phillips screw
into all three pieces and tighten securely (see
Figure 29, page 19).
2. Connect wire harness and power cord ter-
minals. Connect the blue jumper wire to the
blower motor terminal and the right side ter-
minal of the thermal switch. Connect the black
wire to the left side of the thermal switch and
the white wire to the other remaining blower
motor terminal.
Note: The power cord outer insulation sleeve may
have to be stripped slightly to allow enough wire
length to reach and make all connections. DO NOT
trim excessive length away. Just enable enough to
make all connections securely.
