WALL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: On the underside of the fan’s clip there are
“KEY SLOTS” (2).
Select a suitable spot on a wall (away from curtains, draperies, or
heat sources) where you want to mount the fan. Use a No. 10 pan
head wood screw (1 1/4” length) and thread into a 2x4 wood stud
behind the dry wall. Please refer to the warning below if you are
unable to locate a wood stud in the wall.
When threading the screw into the wall, leave approximately 1/4”
clearance between the screw and wall. This will allow the clip’s “KEY
SLOTS” to fit easily and securely over the screws. If necessary, the
screw may be tightened further to ensure the fan is firmly attached
to the wall.
WARNING:
WHEN MOUNTING THE FAN TO PLASTER, DRYWALL OR
SHEETROCK, YOU MUST USE A MOLLY BOLT, OR SIMILAR FASTENER.
DOING SO WILL PREVENT THE FAN FROM BECOMING DISLODGED
WHILE IN OPERATION.
FAN STORAGE
In the off-season:
•
IMPORTANT: Keep your fan in a safe dry location, where the fan
is not likely to fall or be crushed.
•
Your fan should be stored fully assembled.
•
Remember to protect the fan head from dust or moisture.
