and nuts.
NOTE:
The nlaximmll
length
of bolt should
not exceed
1- 1/2 in.

corner
of furnace.
(See Fig. 19.)
Holes
in bottom
closure panel may be used as guide
locations.
2. For each hole. install
nut on bolt and then install bolt and nut
in hole. (Install
flat washer
if desired.)
3. Install
another
nut on other side of fl/mace
base.
(Install
flat
