GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to a person, including the following:
-
Read all instructions before using Fan.
-
Make certain that the power source conforms to the electrical requirements of the Fan.
-
Use this Fan only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons.
-
To reduce the risk of personal injury and electric shock, the Fan should not be played with or placed where small children can reach it.
-
Unplug the power cord before servicing, or moving the Fan.
WARNING: DO NOT DEPEND UPON THE ON-OFF SWITCH AS THE SOLE MEANS OF DISCONNECTING POWER WHEN INSTALLING OR SERVICING THE FAN. ALWAYS UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. -
This Fan must NOT be used in potentially dangerous locations such as flammable, explosive, chemical-laden or wet atmospheres.
-
DO NOT use a Fan in or near a window. Rain may create an electrical hazard.
-
Completely reassemble the Fan, according to instructions, before reconnecting to the power supply.
-
The power cord is equipped with a three-prong grounded plug that must be inserted into a matching receptacle.
-
Under no circumstances should the grounding prong be cut off the plug. Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it must be replaced with a properly grounded three-prong receptacle installed by the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes and ordinances. This work must be done only by a qualified electrician, using copper wire only.
WARNING: USE OF A THREE-PRONG TO TWO-PRONG ADAPTER IS NOT RECOMMENDED. IMPROPER CONNECTION MAY CREATE THE RISK OF ELECTROCUTION. USE OF SUCH ADAPTERS IS NOT PERMITTED IN CANADA. -
Where possible, avoid the use of extension cords. If they must be used, minimize the risk of overheating by ensuring that they are UL-listed. Never use a single extension cord to operate more than one Fan.
-
Do not operate any Fan with a damaged cord or plug or after the Fan malfunctions have been dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the Fan to an authorized service facility for examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment or repair.
-
Do not insert or allow fingers or foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as it may cause an electric shock or fire, or damage the Fan. Do not block or tamper with the Fan in any manner while it is in operation.
-
Locate the Power Cord so the Fan or other objects are not resting on it. Do not run the Power Cord under carpeting. Do not cover the Power Cord with throw rugs, runners, or the like. Arrange the Power Cord away from room traffic and where it will not be tripped over.
-
This Fan is not intended for use in wet locations. Never locate a Fan where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container.
-
Do not use a Fan outdoors.
-
This Fan is not suitable for use in hazardous locations. Please refer to National Electric Code (NEC) Article 500 or applicable state or local codes or standards relating to electrical requirements for Hazardous locations. THIS FAN DOES NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF NEC ARTICLE 500 (2002).
WARNING: REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT USE THIS FAN
WITH ANY SOLID-STATE SPEED CONTROL DEVICES.
CAUTION: BECAUSE OF THE SIZE AND WEIGHT OF THIS FAN, MAKE SURE ALL PARTS
ARE COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED ACCORDING TO INSTRUCTIONS. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD
RESULT IN THE FAN COMING APART DURING OPERATION AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
WALL BRACKET INSTALLATION (Figures 1 through 4)
NOTE: Always install the bracket to a minimum of 2″ x 4″ studding.
- Insert the 7/16-14 x 3-1/2″ Bolt through the Flag Bracket, Wall Bracket and into the 7/16-14 Lock Nut. Tighten with Adjustable Wrenches. MAKE CERTAIN THE DIRECTION OF THE FLAG BRACKET is as shown in Figure 1.
- THE HARDWARE TO ATTACH THE WALL BRACKET TO THE WALL STUD IS NOT SUPPLIED. Locate the wall stud nearest to the desired Fan location.
- Attach the Wall Bracket to the stud using (3) 5/16″ diameter x 2″ long Lag Screws.
- Position the Flag Bracket in the Motor Neck and align the Pivot Hole with the Larger Hole in the Flag Bracket. (Figure 2)
- Attach pull string to motor speed switch, if desired.
- Insert the 1/2″ X 1″ Hex Bolt (3/4″ head) through the Motor Neck, and the Flag Bracket. Place the 1/2″ diameter Split Lockwasher then the 1/2″ diameter Hex Nut (3/4″ head) and tighten fully with 2 adjustable wrenches. (Figure 3)
- From the same side of the Motor Neck, insert one 1/4-20 X 1 5/8″ Carriage Bolt through the Arc-Shaped Slot in the Motor Neck and Hole in the Flag Bracket. (Figure 3)
- To Fasten: Place one 1/4″ Flatwasher, one 1/4″ Internal Tooth Lockwasher, and a second 1/4″ Flatwasher and then tighten the Adjustable Knob over the remaining threads.
- The final assembly of the Motor to the Wall Mount Bracket is illustrated in Figure 4.
GRILL AND BLADE ASSEMBLY (Figures 5 and 6)
NOTE: The assembly of the blade and grill is identical, regardless if the Fan has an oscillating motor or a non-oscillating motor.
- Install the Rear Grill onto the Motor, lining up the six holes in the grill with the six threaded holes in the Motor. Install (6) 10-32 X 5/16″ Hex Screws through the Rear Grill into the Motor. Securely tighten all (6) screws. (Figure 5)
- Push the Fan Blade onto the Motor Shaft, centering the Hub facing away from the motor, until it stops against the shaft (Inset A). Align the Square Head Bolt with flat of the Motor Shaft. TIGHTEN VERY SECURELY WITH AN ADJUSTABLE WRENCH. Failure to securely tighten the Bolt could result in damage to the Fan and/or personal injury.
- Hold the Front Grill so that the name, in the centre, is right side up and straight across. Starting at the top: Fasten the Front Grill to the Rear Grill by sliding the hooked wires on the Front Grill over the outermost ring on the Rear Grill (Figure 6 / Detail A). The bottom-most hooks will require the use of a flathead screwdriver to complete assembly.
- Stand behind the Fan. Slip the flat of the screwdriver between the Front and Rear Grills, next to one of the unfastened hooks. (Figure 6 / Detail B) Pull the screwdriver handle upwards towards the Rear Grill. Slip the
Front Grill hook over the Rear Grill outer ring with a push. Repeat the procedure with the remaining hooks.
CAUTION: DO NOT BEND WIRES ON THE FRONT OR THE REAR GRILLS.
CAUTION
THE SECONDARY SUPPORT CABLE PROVIDED SHOULD BE USED ANYTIME THE CIRCULATOR
IS MOUNTED OVERHEAD FOR ADDITIONAL SAFETY.
SECONDARY SUPPORT CABLE (Figures 7 and 8)
-
Loop one end of the Cable around the Large Guard Wires of both the Front and Rear Grills.
-
Attach a Cable Clamp with the “U” on the tail side of the loop leaving a tail approximately 1 to 2 inches. Tighten Clamp Nuts. Make sure no part of the Cable interferes with the Blade.
-
Wrap the other end of the Cable around a secure building joist, truss, or other support near the Fan. Take up all excess slack in the Cable.
CAUTION: USE ONLY THE MOUNTING HARDWARE THAT IS RECOMMENDED FOR USE ON THIS FAN. -
Attach the remaining Cable Clamp as indicated in Step 2. The excess tail should be trimmed to extend 1 to 2 inches past the Clamp.
-
Check the Assembly to ensure the Blade is free of all obstructions.
CAUTION: Use of the secondary support cable does not guarantee protection against injury of persons, mounting of both the circulator and cable could fail if subjected to abuse, neglect or improper installation.
