Fig. 14—Leveling Legs
1. Position furnace on its back. Locate and drill a 5/16-in.
diameter hole in each bottom corner of furnace. (See Fig. 14.)
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 furnace base. (Install flat
washer if desired.)
4. Adjust outside nut to provide desired height, and tighten inside
nut to secure arrangement.
NOTE: Bottom closure must be used when leveling legs are used.
See Bottom Closure Panel section.
Step 2—Installation on a Concrete Slab
1. Construct hole in floor per dimensions in Fig. 15.
2. Place plenum and furnace as shown in Fig. 16.
Step 3—Installation on a Combustible Floor (Downflow

Applications)

1. Cut and frame hole in floor per dimensions in Installation
Instructions packaged with downflow subbase kit.
NOTE: Remove furnace perforated, discharge duct flanges when
they interfere with mating flanges on coil on downflow subbase.
To remove furnace perforated, discharge duct flange, use wide
duct pliers or duct flange tool to bend flange back-and-forth until
it breaks off. Be careful of sharp edges. (See Fig. 17.)
Do not bend duct flanges inward as shown in Fig. 17. This
will affect airflow across heat exchangers and may cause
limited cycling or premature heat exchanger failure. Remove
duct flange completely or bend it inward a minimum of 210°
as shown in Fig. 17.
2. When complete, downflow subbase, plenum, and furnace (or
coil casing when used) should be installed as shown in Fig. 18.
