Bay Glass Removal

on a soft surface to prevent scratching.
2) Remove the nuts holding the glass retainers
in place.
3) Remove the glass retainers (sides, top and
bottom).

retainers and fasten with the nuts but do not
over tighten, as this can break the glass.

seal.

FAN MAINTENANCE

If your fan requires maintenance or replacement,
access to the fan is through the plate on the rear
wall of the fi rebox. NOTE: the unit MUST NOT
be operated without the fan access panel
securely in place.
Caution: Label all wires prior to
disconnecting when servicing controls.
Wiring errors can cause improper and
dangerous operation. Verify proper
operation after servicing.

Replacing fan:
Reverse above steps. Hint for pushing fan down
onto pins - rub a bit of dish soap on the grommet
so it will slide more easily onto the pin.
Check to make sure the fan is seated properly
on the pins, this is very important- try to move
the fan back and forth, there should be no noise,
if there is check that the grommets haven't
come loose.
Seal fan access panel using high temperature
silicone (sparingly).
