Blower Cord Installation On Left Side - Quadra-Fire 5100 ACC Installation Manual

G. Blower Cord Installation on Left Side
The blower cord is shipped to be installed on the right side
of the appliance. You may relocate the cord so it is on the
left side. You will need to remove the wires, fl ip them over
and remove and reverse the male and female terminals
and re-install the wires. The wire harness and components
are located on the back side of the right side panel.
Relocating Blower Cord to Left Side
1. Remove the convection blower housing from the appli-
ance by removing the start-up air control knob and
removing the four 9/32 inch Allen head bots that hold the
housing to the appliance.
2. Remove the green ground terminal from the housing by
using a 11/32 inch wrench and Phillips head screwdriver.
Figure 19.1.
3. Disconnect all the wires from the switch, rheostat and
power cord. Figure 19.2.
4. Remove the strain relief with pliers. This will free the
power cord from the convection housing. Figure 19.3.
5. Remove the control plate by removing the three Phillips
head screws. Remove the blank plate on the left side of
the housing in the same manner. Swap the locations of
the control plate and blank plate and re-install all of the
fasteners. Figure 20.1
6. Remove the heat shield from the housing. First remove
the screw on the bottom of the housing that holds the
heat shield support. Second, remove the three fl at head
screws that hold the shield to the housing. Figures 20.2
and 20.3.
7. Gently rotate the shield up to expose the connections tat
are made to the snap disc. Disconnect the wires that
attach to the snap dis. Figure 20.4.
8. Using pliers, pry on the tabs that retain the harness
enough to remove the harness. Do not disconnect the
wires that go to the blower. Place the harness under
the tabs on the left hand side of the convection housing
and bend them down enough until they hold the harness.

9. Using pliers remove the strain relief that is on the power
cord. Remove the cap that is on the hole for the strain
relief and re-install on the right side. Route power cord
through the hole and reconnect the ground terminal to
one of the screws that hold the control cover in place.
Use the 11/32 inch nut that was used to hold the ground
terminal on the other side. Connect the white wire on
the power cord to the long high temperature lead coming
from the blower. Connect the black wire to the white
wire on the rheostat. Locate the new cord grip which is
included in the component pack and install on the power
cord about 2 inches further down the cord than the previ-
ous cord grip was installed. Snap the cord grip back into
the housing. Figure 20.6.

10. See Figure 20.1 as a reference to connect the remain-
ing wires as shown.
11 Reconnect the wire harness to the snap disc that is
located on the heat shield. Rotate the heat shield into
position and reinstall the fl at head screws and the sheet-
metal screw that is on the bottom of the housing.
12. Ensure that nothing is in the way of the blower and plug
the power cord into an outlet. Make sure that when the
switch is in 'Auto' position that the blower will not turn
on when the rheostat is engaged. If the blower turns on
while in the 'Auto' position then the wires at the switch
are reversed. Simply swap them on the terminals and
perform the test again.
