NOTE - The 1/2 hp blower motor used in the SLP98D-
F070V36B and SLP98DF090V36C unit is equipped
with three exible legs and one rigid leg. The rigid leg
is equipped with a shipping bolt and a at white plastic
washer (rather than the rubber mounting grommet used
with a exible mounting leg). The bolt and washer must
be removed before the furnace is placed into opera-
tion. After the bolt and washer have been removed, the
rigid leg will not touch the blower housing.

Allow for clearances to combustible materials as indicated
on the unit nameplate. Minimum clearances for closet or
alcove installations are shown in gure 7.
WARNING
The blower access panel must be securely in place when
the blower and burners are operating. Gas fumes, which
could contain carbon monoxide, can be drawn into living
space resulting in personal injury or death.
WARNING
Improper installation of the furnace can result in personal
injury or death. Combustion and ue products must
never be allowed to enter the return air system or air in
the living space. Use sheet metal screws and joint tape
to seal return air system to furnace.
In platform installations with furnace return, the furnace
should be sealed airtight to the return air plenum. A door
must never be used as a portion of the return air duct
system. The base must provide a stable support and an
airtight seal to the furnace. Allow absolutely no sagging,
cracks, gaps, etc. For no reason should return and
supply air duct systems ever be connected to or from
other heating devices such as a replace or stove, etc.
Fire, explosion, carbon monoxide poisoning, personal
injury and/or property damage could result.
IThe unit may be installed three ways in downow applica-
tions: on non-combustible ooring, on combustible oor-
ing using a base, or on a reverse-ow cooling coil cabinet.
Do not drag the unit across the oor in the downow
position. Floor and ange damage will result. Refer to
gure 7 for clearances in downow applications.

connections and sufcient installation and servicing
clearances. See table 1 for correct oor opening
size.
2 - Flange warm air plenum and lower the plenum into
the opening.
3 - Set the unit over the plenum and seal the plenum
to the unit.
Ensure that the seal is adequate.
