9. The COM Port is located on the upper
right portion of the Rear Panel.
Remove the two (2) Mounting Nuts
located on either side of the COM Port.
10. Position the Chassis as shown with the Blower Assembly facing
forward.
11. Disconnect the four (4)
connectors shown from the
Main PCB. Make note of
the location of each
connector (the Flo Pump
harness plug should be
marked "P10").
13. Pull the Main PCB forward to release pins on PCB plug from the
connector on the HV Board. Set Main PCB aside.
12. Disconnect the two (2)
connectors shown from the
main PCB.
CAUTION
The larger of these two
connectors has very fine wires
attached. Handlethisconnector
withcaretopreventanydamage
to these wires.

14. Remove the Tie Wrap that secures the large air hose to the Blower
Assembly (see illustration, step 24). Do NOT remove the other 2 Tie
Wraps (near rear panel).
15. Remove the 4 Hex Nuts & Washers from blower mounting bracket.
16. Pull the Blower Assembly up and just off of its four (4) mounting studs.
17. Holding the Blower Air Hose, pull the Blower Assembly forward to
release the Air Hose from the Blower Assembly.
18. There are four (4) Blue grommets (with metal sleeves) on the blower
mounting bracket. Remove each of the grommets and install in position
on the replacement Blower Assembly. Set old Blower Assembly aside.
19. Holding the Blower Air Hose, push the nipple
of the plastic housing on the Blower Assembly
forward and into the Hose.

20. Push the Blower Assembly down, sliding the four (4) Blue grommets
(with metal sleeves) over the four (4) mounting studs on the chassis
plate.
NOTE
Insure that the small Vacuum Air Hose does not become pinched when
the Blower Assembly is pushed into place. This hose should be routed
under the Blower Assembly between the plastic blower housing and the
metal blower mounting bracket.
21. Check the Blower Air Hose to insure that it is securely attached to the
Blower Assembly and is straight (not kinked). Adjust hose if necessary.
22. Secure the Blower Assembly in position by installing the four (4) Hex
Nuts and Washers removed in step 14.

harness) at the Blower Assembly
using the supplied Tie Wrap.
25. Position the Main PCB as shown
over the Chassis and with the ribbon
cable facing forward.
26. Align the COM Port receptacle at
the rear of the Main PCB with its
rear panel cutout
27. There is a ten (10) pin plug mounted
at the rear of the Main PCB.
Carefully insert these pins into the
matching 10 pin connector on the
HV Board.

28. Install the two (2) Mounting Nuts
removed in step 9 on either side of the
COM Port.
29. Install the 6 connectors
removed in steps 11 & 12.
Insure that each connector
is pushed fully onto its
PCB connection. Insure
that the connector marked
"P10" is plugged into the
proper location. Refer to
