⁄2″ to the left or right. This will help to align vent
discharge to house ductwork.

For even more flexibility, the entire blower can be
rotated up to 30° toward the left or 30° toward
the right.
Discharge direction
The blower assembly may be removed and turned
90° for a left or right side discharge.
■ The downdraft vent is shipped with the discharge
outlet pointing straight down and can be changed
to the left or right side.
■ A left or right 90° direction adjustment should be
performed before dropping into the countertop
opening.
■ Flatten the shipping box to use as a pad.
■ Lay the vent on its back onto the pad.
To change to a left or right discharge:
Remove 4 nuts holding the blower to the
mounting plate. See illustration. One nut is just
inside the blower discharge.
Remove and turn the blower to the right or left.
Reinstall the 4 nuts.
To locate the ductwork holes in the cabinet floor
or side walls:
Temporarily, place vent into the countertop
opening.
Push the vent all the way to the back of the
opening.
If you are transitioning to 6″ round, place
transition piece over the discharge outlet.
– Mark the location and remove the assembly.
– Cut holes and install ductwork connections.
