CAUTION: This unit has an unguarded impeller. Do not use in locations readily accessible to people or
animals. WEAR HAND PROTECTION AND STAY CLEAR OF SHARP EDGES! The compactness and
adaptability of the model PSD blower permits easy installation. The units are shipped fully assembled
and can be mounted at any angle. For mounting suggestions see Page 3 & 4. Because this unit has

electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and
standards, including fire-rated construction.

by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the American Society for Heating,
