General Safety Information
1. Ensure that the power source conforms to the electrical requirements of the fan.
2. Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it must be replaced with a
properly grounded three prong receptacle installed in accordance with the United
States National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes and ordinances.
This work must be done by a qualified electrician, using copper wire only.
3. Where possible, avoid the use of extension cords. If they must be used, minimize
the risk of overheating by ensuring that they are UL Listed and of the proper gauge
and length. Never use a single extension cord to operate more than one fan.
4. Do not kink the cord or allow it to contact oil, grease, chemicals, hot surfaces, or
sharp or abrasive objects.
5. This fan is to be operated ONLY with its OSHA compliant guards in place to prevent
persons and/or objects from contacting the revolving propeller. Any other use voids
warranty and may create unsafe conditions.
6. Fan is intended for general air circulation ONLY. It must NOT be used in potentially
dangerous locations such as flammable, explosive, chemical-laden, or wet
atmospheres. Do not use fan in or near a window, since rain may create an electrical
hazard. Do not attach ductwork to the fan.
7. Fan motor is equipped with an automatically resetting control circuit that will
disconnect power if the motor overheats. Always unplug fan before removing guard,
