Setting Equipment
WARNING
Do not install the furnace on its front or its back. Do
not connect the return air ducts to the back of the
furnace. Doing so will adversely affect the operation
of the safety control devices, which could result in
personal injury or death.
The ML180UHV gas furnace can be installed as shipped
in either the upflow position or the horizontal position.
Select a location that allows for the required clearances
that are listed on the unit nameplate. Also consider gas
supply connections, electrical supply, vent connection,
and installation and service clearances [24 inches (610
mm) at unit front]. The unit must be level.
NOTE - Units with 1/2 hp blower motors are equipped with
three flexible legs and one rigid leg. See FIGURE 6. The
rigid leg is equipped with a shipping bolt and a flat white
plastic washer (rather than the rubber mounting grommet
used with a flexible mounting leg). The bolt and wash-
er must be removed before the furnace is placed into
operation. After the bolt and washer have been removed,
the rigid leg will not touch the blower housing.
