  2. Always disconnect, lock out, and tag out the power source before installing or servicing. Failure to disconnect the power source can result in fire, shock, or serious injury.
  3. The motor will restart without warning after thermal protector trips. Do not touch the operating motor; it may be hot enough to cause injury.
  4. Do not place body parts or objects in fan or motor openings while the motor is connected to the power source.
  5. All electrical connections should be made by a qualified electrician.
  6. These utility exhaust fans are for general-purpose exhaust applications only. Do not use these exhaust fans in an area where corrosive or explosive materials may be found.

  9. Protect the power cable from coming in contact with sharp objects.
  10. Do not kink or create tight bends in the power cable and never allow the cable to come in contact with oil, grease, hot surfaces, or chemicals.
  11. Make certain that the power source conforms to the requirements of your specific exhaust fan model. The fan frame and motor must be electrically grounded to a suitable electrical ground, such as a grounded water pipe or ground wire system.
  12. To reduce the risk of injury to persons, please observe the following: In the United States, OSHA-compliant guards are required when the fan is installed within 7 feet of the floor or working level. In Canada, CSA-compliant guards are required when the fan is installed below 2.5 meters (8.2 feet) above the floor or grade level.
  13. Suitable for use with solid-state speed controls.

INSTAILNLSATTAIOLLNAITNISOTNRIUNCSTTIROUN

  1. The unit should be securely mounted in a rigid framework.
    • NOTE: Allowing the fan frame to flex or move will result in excess vibrations, which may cause possible premature motor, propeller, or shutter failure.
  2. Install any auxiliary components such as thermostats, switches, or speed controls.
  3. Connect power to the motor using an approved wiring method. Refer to the following wiring diagram.
    • Fan frame and motor must be securely and adequately grounded to a suitable electrical ground, such as a ground water pipe or ground wiring system.
