4. Push the right end of the motor mounting plate up and snap it
into the spring tab.
NOTE: The spring tab should be outside the slot in the

5. Align mounting holes in motor mounting plate with motor
mounting clip nuts and install 6 x 16 mm screws and 6.4 mm
lock washers (quantity 2 for single motor; quantity 5 for dual
motor).
6. Attach power supply connector from the range hood to the
connector on the blower motor assembly wiring box.
7. Go to the “Make Electric Power Supply Connection to Range
Hood” section.
Install Range Hood In-Line (External Type)
Blower Motor
NOTE: Your range hood requires you to purchase either an
internal type or an in-line (external type) blower motor system.
See “Blower Motor System” in the “Accessories” section.
Prepare for Mounting the In-Line Blower System
The in-line blower system must be fastened to a secure structure
of the roof, ceiling, wall, floor, or new or existing frame
construction. The 4 holes on either the inlet (bottom) side or the
outlet (top) side of the blower must be used to mount the in-line
blower system to the structure.
NOTE: The mounting hole locations must span the studs.
Additional stud framing may be required. Plywood may be used
to span open areas between ceiling joists or roof rafters to aid
installation. This structure must be strong enough to support the
weight of the in-line blower system (50 lb [22.6 kg] min).
Prepare the In-line Blower System
1. Using 2 or more people, move the in-line blower motor
system to the mounting location.
2. Remove the 10 screws from the front cover of the in-line
blower motor housing and set them aside.
3. Remove the front cover of the in-line blower motor housing
and set it aside.
NOTE: To make the blower motor housing easier to mount,
the blower motor assembly can be removed. If you do not
want to remove the blower motor assembly, proceed to
“Install In-line Blower System” in this section.
4. Disconnect the motor electrical plug from the blower motor
assembly.
5. Remove the screws that secure the blower motor assembly
to the in-line blower housing and set them aside.
