Maintenance Checklist:

1. 

Ensure all mounting bolts are present and torqued to 90 ft-lb (122 N-m) using a calibrated torque  

 wrench.

2.  

Ensure all bolts securing blades to the struts are present and torqued to 29 ft-lb (39 N-m) using a  

 

calibrated torque wrench.

3.  

Inspect power input terminations inside the connector plug and ensure their tightness.

4.  

Check all connections of the fan controller and ensure their tightness.

5.  

Ensure blades are secured to one another by boomerang brackets.

6.

   Ensure screws securing wingtips to blades are tight.

7.  

Check for the presence of the safety cable and gripple clips. The cable should be wrapped  

 

around the I-beam or angle irons, leaving as little slack as possible. The wire rope clips should be  

 

securely fastened on the top side of the I-beam or angle irons.

8.

   Administer proper cleaning techniques such as dusting blades, motor, reducer and chassis. If  

 

desired, used a water based cleaner to polish blades.

WARNING/AVERTISSEMENT

!

Risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons during cleaning and user-maintenance! 

 

Risque d’incendie, de choc électrique ou de blessures lors du nettoyage et de l’entretien 

par l’utilisateur!

Disconnect the appliance from the power supply and allow sufficient time for electrical 

discharge before servicing. 

Débranchez l’appareil de l’alimentation électrique et laisser suffisamment de temps 

pour la décharge électrique avant l’entretien.

Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at the service panel and lock the service 

disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.

Avant de réparer ou de nettoyer l’appareil, coupez l’alimentation électrique au panneau de service 

et bloquez les dispositifs de sectionnement pour éviter une mise en marche accidentelle.

When service or replacement of a component in the fan requires the removal or disconnection of 

a safety device, the safety device is to be reinstalled or remounted as previously installed.  Failure to 

comply may result in serious personal injury.

Lorsque le service ou le remplacement d’un composant dans le ventilateur nécessite le retrait ou la 

déconnexion d’un dispositif de sécurité, le dispositif de sécurité doit être réinstallé ou remonté comme 

précédemment installé. Le non-respect peut entraîner des blessures graves.
