Note: The aluminum tube shown in the
following illustrations is for reference only and
is not included. The 7" adaptor snaps in to the
back of the base and will adapt to a standard 7"
aluminum duct. When using 8" duct work
it is best to either cut off the 7" section of the adaptor
using a hacksaw or discard it and assemble the duct
to the base directly.
