Installation Instructions

Important: Read all the safety instructions before attempting to install this product.

8.1 Installing the Fan Onto a Wall
Important: The fan requires an area of at least W 600 x H 600 x D 650mm in order to operate freely and without obstruction.
CAUTION! Check the immediate area around the installation point to ensure that there are no loose items that may become caught in or otherwise affected by the fan in a manner that may cause a hazard.

1. Place the wall mounting bracket (H) against the wall or surface so that the three holes are against the wall and the bracket extends upwards.
   Important: Ensure that there is enough space above the bracket to accommodate the fan once installed and that a suitable power outlet is within reach of the plug.

2. Mark the position of the holes and drill using an appropriate bit.

3. Insert the plastic wall plugs and screw the bracket firmly into place.

4. Hook the fan’s base bracket (10) over the wall mounting bracket. The cable runs and eyes on the base of the fan can be used to keep the power cable tidy.
   Important: Ensure that the fan sits securely on the bracket and cannot be pulled away from the wall easily.

5. Additional fixings (not supplied) can also be installed through any unused cable eyes for extra support.
   Important: DO NOT overtighten screws through the cable eyes as you may damage the product. ALWAYS use fixings appropriate for the installation surface material.

8.2 Setting the Fan Tilt Angle
WARNING! ALWAYS ensure that the fan is switched off, disconnected from mains power and has completely stopped before adjusting the tilt angle.
The vertical tilt angle of the fan can be adjusted by gently pushing the fan head upwards or downwards. The fan clicks as it locks into each position.
