Operation

To operate the fan, depress the switch to “II” for HI, “I” for LO and
“0” for off. The blade must be clear of any obstructions that would
cause it to jam.

Important Safety Instructions

• To reduce the risk of fi re or shock, do not use this product with any

solid-state speed control device (dimmer switch).

• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended
to fi t in a polarized outlet one way. If the plug does not fi t fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fi t, contact a qualifi ed
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

• Unplug fan before cleaning.

• Use common sense when using this and/or any electrical appliance.

• Do not position too close to any objects which may be drawn into the
blades and stop the airfl ow.

• Do not use outdoors, on wet surfaces or immerse in water. Never
allow water to drop into motor housing.

• Do not use if power supply cord becomes frayed or brittle.

• Do not use gasoline, thinners or other harsh chemicals to clean fan.

• Do not position too close to fi replaces or stoves to avoid damage to
plastic parts.

Warning! Avoid prolonged jamming of the fan blade. This model is

equipped with an “overheat protector” which is designed to stop the
motor if the fan blade is jammed for a long period of time. Under extreme
conditions damage can occur to the blade at the point where it attaches to
the shaft. If damaged, the blade will not be secure on the shaft and will
have to be replaced. Please contact Caframo Customer Service at
1-800-567-3556 for a replacement blade.

Care and Maintenance

This product has been designed for many years of problem-free
operation. There are however, a few simple things that you can do to
enhance the life of your fan:

1. Keep the air vents clear and free of dirt. These vents are necessary
to keep the motor cool while in use. Unplug the fan, and use a
vacuum to remove dirt from vents.

2. Although this product has self-
lubricating bearings, after many years
of use these can dry out and clog with
dust. Should this happen, your fan will
begin to run slower, louder and may
seize-up. To prevent this, unplug the fan,
blow out and lubricate the front bearings
where indicated in the diagram beside.
Use a light machine oil.

The front bearing is easily oiled by
turning the fan so that the shaft is
vertical with the blade facing upwards.
Remove the blade by fi rmly pulling
it straight off the shaft. Apply a couple
of drops of oil onto the shaft, as close
to the bearing as possible, and leave
adequate time for the oil to penetrate
the bearing. Clean the shaft thoroughly
before replacing the blade.

Caution! Keep out of the reach of children.
