INSTALLATION
Continued
Decide which way you intend to gain access
into the bottom rear of the rebox to install
the blower accessory. The lower front panel
can be removed easily by snapping out the
front with a at blade screwdriver. Use cau-
tion not to scratch any surfaces. Models with
louvered front panels can also be removed by
inserting ngertips between slots and gently
pulling out. DO NOT FORCE. The panels are
actually held in place by means of a retention
dimple embossed on the edge of removable
panels.
Accessibility to the bottom on 36" and 42"
models only, can also be gained through the
access panel underneath the bottom front
refractory brick liner. Lift the bottom front
refractory brick liner up and out of the rebox
oor, exposing the rectangular shaped access
panel (see Figure 11, page 13). The sides and
back refractory brick liner pieces do not have
to be removed. Lift access panel out by using
nger holes. Blower accessory BK or BK3 can
now be installed.
