GRILL AND BLADE ASSEMBLY (Figures 3 and 4)

NOTE: The assembly of the blade and grill is identical, regardless if the Fan has an oscillating motor or a non-oscillating motor. One of each is shown in the illustrations below.

1.Install the Rear Grill onto the Motor, lining up the six holes in the grill with the six threaded holes in the Motor. Install (6) 10-32 X 5/16” Hex Screws through the Rear Grill into the Motor. Securely tighten all (6) screws. (Figure 3)

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 4/ 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 4/ 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.

For Oscillating Motor: Place the flat section on the Motor Mounting Adapter next to the Motor Neck. (Figure 2A)

For Non-Oscillating Motor: Slide the Motor Neck Slot over the Motor Mounting Adapter. Align the 1/2” diameter hole in the Adapter with the 1/2” diameter holes in the Motor neck Slot. (Figure 2B)

10.Insert the 1/2” X 1” Hex Bolt (3/4” head) through the Motor Neck, and the Motor Mounting Adapter. Place 1/2” diameter Split Lockwasher then the 1/2” diameter Hex Nut (3/4” head) and tighten fully with 2 adjustable wrenches.

11.From the same side of the Motor Neck, insert one 1/4-20 X 1 5/8” Carriage Bolt through the Arc-Shaped Slot in the Motor Neck and Hole in the Motor Mounting Adapter.

To Fasten: Place one 1/4” Flatwasher, one 1/4” Internal Tooth Lockwasher, a second 1/4” Flatwasher and then tighten the Adjustable Knob over the remaining threads.
