TAKE MEASUREMENTS
1= Refer to the cooktop installation instructions for dimensions
of cooktop, countertop cut-out, and cabinet requirements.
The Model 59960 will fit in most 30" wide cabinets and the
Model 59966 will fit in most 36" wide cabinets. However, it
is recommended that oversized cabinets be used for easier
installation.
2= Cooktop depth can vary greatly from one to another. This
may cause the fit of these two appliances to be rather tight.
Pay special attention to the areas of potential
interference
highlighted above. A countertop with (A) a raised Iip and/or
(B) a backsplash may not allow enough flat countertop for a
proper installation.
Note that 2" of fiat countertop is required
behind cooktop and that 1-3/4" is necessary between the back
edge of the cooktop and the inside of cabinet back.
PLAN THE DUCTWORK
1= This downdraft
blower system is designed
for use with
3-1/4" x 10" ductwork (can be transitioned
to 6" round).
Three different discharge directions are available with side-
to-side adiustment for accurate alignment of ductwork.
2. For best performance:
Choose the ducting option which
allows the shortest
length of ductwork
and a minimum
number of elbows and transitions. Check location of floor
ioists, walI studs, electrical wiring or plumbing for possible
interference.
NOTE: The unit is shipped with the 3q/4" x
10" discharge facing DOWN. See "CHANGING BLOWER
DISCHARGE"
on page 7, if necessary.
3. The system wiII operate most efficiently when the ductwork
does not exceed 40 feet of equivalent
duct. The chart,
above, shows equivalent
feet of eibows and transitions.
The number of feet of straight duct pius the equivalent feet
of transitions and/or elbows to be used should equal 40
feet or less.

1= The downdraft blower system draws 4 AMPS and requires
a 120 VAC, 60 Hz circuiL
2= The unit has a 2 fL long power cord with a 3-pronged plug.
Plan to provide a grounded
outlet in a location which wiiI
allow the unit's power cord to reach= (Note: If the Model 59940
is being instalIed in a 30" wide cabinet or the Model 59946 is
being installed in a 36" wide cabinet, the outlet cannot be
located on the back waII of cabinet.) Outlet may also be waif
mounted, with access hole in cabinet.
