WARNING: DO NOT DEPEND UPON ANY SWITCH OR THERMOSTAT AS THE SOLE MEANS OF DIS­CONNECTING POWER WHEN INSTALLING OR SERVICING THE MOTOR. ALWAYS UNPLUG THE
POWER CORD. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN FATAL ELECTRIC SHOCK.
CAUTION: DO NOT MOVE FAN WHILE BLADE IS MOVING. ALWAYS TURN FAN OFF AND LET
BLADE STOP BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO MOVE. DO NOT USE BLADE GUARD TO MOVE FAN.

1. Motor is set for 90˚ sweep when assembled at factory. Make sure both bolts on actuating arm are

tight. See Figure 1. Be sure that lockshaft (3) in Figure 1 is securely tightened full counter clock­wise to obtain the “sweep” action. Tighten lockshaft only when blade or motor is at rest. The lock­shaft may be hand tightened or a pair of pliers may be used to snug the lockshaft.

2. “Straight blow” (fixed position) is obtained by loosening the lockshaft(3) approximately 1/4 turn

clockwise.

3. The lockshaft will loosen and disengage the oscillating mechanism when the fan assembly is

blocked or prevented from making its full sweep. Remove the blockage and re-tighten the lock­shaft to return to its sweeping action.

4. Fan may be tilted 10˚ up or 10˚ down on both pedestal & wall mount application.

5. Do not tighten set screw on support . This is pre-set at factory.

WARNING: MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE FAN IS UNPLUGGED BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO SERVICE,
DISASSEMBLE OR REMOVE ANY COMPONENT!

1. Clean blade and guard with mild soap and water only. DO NOT allow fan motor to get wet.

2. Motor is permanently lubricated - do not oil.

3. Inspect for any damaged or worn parts and replace.

ADJUSTABLE PEDESTAL COLUMN FOR OSCILLATING FAN

IMPORTANT- REVIEW ALL THE ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS AND

HECK FOR MISSING OR DAMAGED PARTS PRIOR TO STARTING

C
ASSEMBLY

1. Remove 2 sections of adjustable pedestal column from carton. Remove
oval grommet from parts package and install in oval slot near top of
pedestal column. Remove large round grommet from parts package. Turn
grommet “inside out” so that the grove is on the inside and the smooth
side is on the outside. Install grommet over bottom lip of pedestal col­umn. Feed power cord down through top of black section (end with screw
holes). Slide adjustment collar into black section, align screw holes and
secure. Secure adjustment collar to lowest height for assembly. (See
Figure 2)

2. Remove base from carton and insert medium rubber grommet into hole
on surface of fan base.(See Figure 3)

3. Feed power cord from bottom of column down through center hole of fan
base and then back through hole with rubber grommet.(See Figure 3)

4. Align holes in flange at base of column with holes in top of fan base.
Secure using 5/16” x 1” carriage bolts, lockwashers and hex nuts.(See
Figure 3). One of the carriage bolts is to be attached with the 5/16” inter­nal tooth star washer mounted under the bolt head.

OVAL GROMMET

Remove oval grommet from parts
package and install in
oval slot near top pedestal.
This grommet must be installed to
prevent cord damage.

LARGE ROUND
GROMMET

Remove large round grommet from
parts package.

5. Secure fan head assembly to upper column using 1/2” x 1-1/2” hex bolt,
washer, lockwashers and hex nuts,1/4” x 1-1/2” bolt, washer, lockwash­ers and hex nut. (See Figure 4).

NOTE: Loosen the lockshaft (3) Figure 1, at least 1/4 turn clockwise to dis-

engage the oscillating mechanism of the gear before installing the fan

ead assembly to the pedestal column. This will avoid unnecessary

h
movements of the gear mechanism while the fan head is still being
installed.

6. Loosen adjustment collar and extend fan to proper height.Tighten collar
and connect power cord from column to power cord on motor.

7. Plug power cord from fan into any 120 VAC 3-prong grounded outlet.

NOTE: When mounting Fan Head
onto pedestal assembly, motor cord
should be on the same side as the
oval grommet on the pedestal. This
will minimize the rubbing of the
