Continued
6. Plug in blower power cord.
a. If your fireplace system is installed
as a freestanding unit with an ac-
cessory mantel, determine whether
the power cord will exit the left side
or the right side of the firebox. In-
stall 1 plastic bushing provided into
the 1.5" hole in the floor support
bracket on the exit side (see Figure
11). Install the second plastic bush-
ing provided into the 1.5" hole in the
outer casing through which the
power cord will exit. Route power
cord through both plastic bushings
and plug the power cord into a prop-
erly grounded 3-prong wall recep-
tacle near the firebox.
b. If your fireplace system installa-
tion is recessed, plug the power cord
into a properly installed duplex out-
let. (If an outlet is not available, the
Vanguard accessory model GA3555
Outlet kit with/ cover can be installed
in your fireplace which will supply
a convenient 3-prong grounded elec-
trical outlet for your blower. Refer
to the installation manual provided
with the model GA3555 accessory
for instructions on wiring the duplex
outlet.)
7. Check to make sure that the power cord
is completely clear of the blower wheel
and that there are no other foreign ob-
jects in blower wheel. Turn blower on
and check for operation. Turn blower
off by rotating knob fully counterclock-
wise before continuing.
WARNING: Never touch the
blower wheel while in operation.
8. Peel off the backing paper and stick the
supplied wiring diagram decal on the fire-
box bottom approximately 3" to the right
of the blower speed control (Figure 12).

the parts in accordance with sup-
plied diagrams or failure to use
