Actual motor not shown for

detailed hardware view.

Locate remaining parts from Motor Hardware Bag to Assemble Grills and Blade to the Motor.

1. Install the Rear Grill onto the Motor, lining up the six holes in the grill with the six threaded holes in the motor mounting ﬂange. Install (6) 10-32 X 5/16” Hex Screws through the rear grill into the mounting ﬂange. Securely tighten all (6) screws. (Figure 6)

2. 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 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.

3. Hold the Front Grill so that the name, in the center, is right side up and straight across. Starting at the top: Fasten Front Grill to Rear Grill by sliding the hooked wires on the Front Grill over the outermost ring on the Rear Grill. (Figure 7 / 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 7 / Detail B) Pull screwdriver handle upwards towards the Rear Grill. Slip the Front Grill hook over the Rear Grill outer ring with a push. Repeat procedure with remaining hooks.

CAUTION: DO NOT BEND WIRES ON THE FRONT OR THE REAR GRILLS.
