Hey all,

 

So, this is a little embarrassing! We're taking out the cabinets on the wall of the kitchen where the Nutone is built-in, and I can't remember how these stabilizing brackets are released. Anyone remember?

 

Thanks in advance,

Chuck

If memory serves, remove the speed control knob, and located either above or below the knob shaft there should be a recessed slotted screw, that when turned CCW, will retract those brackets. (I believe Nutone recommended installers fill the screw hole with some sort of putty to prevent any liquids from the counter to enter the screw area. So if you see a small area with a white or white/yellow substance, that may be covering-up the slot in the screw). Good luck.
 
Thanks for that information! I don't remember having to do that in reverse when I installed it, but who knows! Since we were under the gun we ended up cutting it out of the countertop for the time being. I'll take a look when I'm ready to reinstall it this weekend!

Perfect!!! Thanks!!! I didn't remember but Rich had me fill the hole so nothing would leak in. I didn't remember the process, so..... Maybe I should tape instructions to it for next time. Oh, wait, no way in hell will there be another next time!!!! LOL!

Hi Sarah,
My mixer mechanism has broken on me. So, I might be interested in yours. Is it in good working order? And, how much are you asking for it?
Thanks,
Steve
