Base / Pole Assembly
Step 1:Insert the pole into the base aligning the keyway on the bottom
of the pole with the key in the base.
Step 2: Tighten the base nut onto the bottom of the pole.
Fan Head Assembly
Step 1: Position the rear grill over the motor shaft, making sure
thecircular opening in the center of the rear grill fits over
the prongs on the rear housing. Please make sure the
rear grill fits securely against the motor housing.
Step 2: Secure the rear grill in its place using the rear grill
mounting-nut. Turn this nut clockwise and tighten firmly.
Step 3: Slide the fan blade, with the hollowed interior of the
blade facing towards the rear of the grill firmly onto the
motor shaft, until the shaft protrudes from the front of
the blade.
Step 4: Secure the fan blade onto the motor shaft by firmly
tightening the fan blade nut.
NOTE: TURN THE BLADE NUT COUNTER-CLOCKWISE
Step 5: Center the front grill by aligning the Holmes logo on the
grill hub so it is horizontal and parallel with the floor.
Then, holding the front grill against the rear grill, push
the translucent grill ring into place at the top and bottom
of the fan. (Push directly on the translucent grill ring, not
on the grills themselves.) Finish securing the grill ring in
the same manner until both grills are joined underneath
the translucent grill ring.
Step 6: Align the metal plate with the indentation on the bottom
of the grill ring. Pass the screw with the washer through
the opening on the bottom of the grill ring and fasten to
the metal plate.
