THESE IMPORTANT

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

THIS HACP9 OSCILLATING CLIP FAN COMES FULLY ASSEMBLED AND IS READY FOR IMMEDIATE USE.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Clip fan onto a dry, level surface.

2. Please make sure the On/Speed switch is in the "Off" position. Plug the cord into any standard 120-volt A/C outlet.

3. The SPEED is adjusted by moving the switch left or right to the desired setting.

4. The OSCILLATION control knob is located on the top of the fan motor housing. To start oscillation, push control knob down. To stop oscillation, pull control knob up.

WALL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: On the underside of the fan’s 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 2x4 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 clip’s “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

1. To change the tilting angle of the fan head, simply loosen the tilt adjustment knob.

2. 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.

CLEANING/MAINTENANCE

Follow these instructions to correctly and safely care for your oscillating clip fan. Please remember:

• Always unplug the fan before cleaning or disassembling.

• Do not allow water to drip on or into the fan motor housing.

• Do not use any of the following as a cleaner: gasoline, thinner, benzene.

3. Replace the front grill by snapping back into rear grill.

Fan Head and Clip Cleaning

Using a soft, moist cloth, with or without a mild soap solution, carefully clean the fan head. Please use caution around the motor housing area. Do not allow the motor or other electrical components to be exposed to water.

FAN STORAGE

In the off-season:

• IMPORTANT: Keep your fan in a safe dry location,

where the fan is not likely to fall or be crushed.

•Your fan should be stored fully assembled.

• Remember to protect the fan head from dust or moisture.

THIS APPLIANCE HAS A POLARIZED PLUG (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MODIFY THIS PLUG OR DEFEAT THIS

SAFETY FEATURE IN ANY WAY.
