FEATURES – OPERATIONS

PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
THIS PRODUCT COMES FULLY ASSEMBLED AND IS READY FOR IMMEDIATE USE.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Clip fan onto a dry, level surface.
Please make sure the power switch located on the back of the motor housing is in the “Off” position. Plug the cord into any standard 120-volt A/C outlet.
The SPEED is adjusted by moving the switch located on the motor housing left or right to the desired setting.
The OSCILLATION control knob is located on the top of the fan motor housing. To start oscillation, push the control knob down. To stop oscillation, pull the control knob up.

WALL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: On the underside of the fans clip there are “KEY SLOTS” (2). Select a suitable spot on a wall (away from curtains, draperies, or heat sources) where you want to mount the fan. Use a No. 10 pan head wood screw (1 1/4″ length) and thread into a 2×4 wood stud behind the dry wall. Please refer to the warning below if you are unable to locate a wood stud in the wall. When threading the screw into the wall, leave approximately 1/4″ clearance between the screw and wall. This will allow the clips “KEY SLOTS” to fit easily and securely over the screws. If necessary, the screw may be tightened further to ensure the fan is firmly attached to the wall. WARNING: WHEN MOUNTING THE FAN TO PLASTER, DRYWALL OR SHEETROCK, YOU MUST USE A MOLLY BOLT, OR SIMILAR FASTENER. DOING SO WILL PREVENT THE FAN FROM BECOMING DISLODGED WHILE IN OPERATION.

ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Vertical Angle Adjustment

To change the tilting angle of the fan head, simply loosen the tilt adjustment knob.
Move the fan head to the desired angle, then firmly tighten the knob to lock the fan head in place.

Horizontal Angle Adjustment Turn the motor housing to the desired direction. WARNING: MAKE SURE TO SUPPORT THE FAN HEAD ASSEMBLY WHEN LOOSENING THE ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT NUT, AS THE WEIGHT OF THE FAN HEAD MAY CAUSE THE EXTENSION POLE TO COLLAPSE. It is suggested that you refer to a local hardware retailer in case you need additional information on mounting your fan to a wall.
