! B E F OR E Y O U B E G I N SAFETY & PRECAUTIONS Important Safety Information To prevent SERIOUS INJURY, DEATH and PROPERTY DAMAGE, you should read, understand and follow the warnings and instructions in this manual before installing or operating the fan. Keep for future reference. This manual must always be kept with the fan and should remain with the fan if it is transferred or sold. Always give manual to fan owner following installation. FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK and CRUSH HAZARDS.
! B E F OR E Y O U B E G I N SAFETY & PRECAUTIONS Electric Shock Hazard To prevent serious injury or death: • BEFORE installing or servicing your fan, ALWAYS disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breaker, or breakers, to the fan locations and confirm Lockout/Tagout procedures are in place. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the off position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the electrical panel.
! BEFORE YOU BEGIN SAFETY & PRECAUTIONS CRUSH HAZARD To prevent serious injury or death, ALWAYS attach the Retention Cable to the fan motor and secure to the building structure on EVERY fan. The Retention Cable, if installed per Hunter Industrial Fan specifications, can limit the distance the fan could fall in the unlikely event of mounting system failure. Failure to install and to secure the Retention Cable will void your warranty.
! BEFORE YOU BEGIN FAN PLACEMENT Fan Placement ALWAYS mount fan so the bottom edge of blade to the floor is at least 10 feet from the floor and at least 25% of fan diameter from the ceiling. Always mount fans away from the following: Sprinkler Systems Prior to installing fans, review all codes applicable to sprinkler systems and fans to ensure code compliance and refer to NFPA 13: Fire Sprinkler System Installation.

I NS TA L L AT I O N 1 MOUNTING CRUSH HAZARD To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH ALWAYS mount fan directly from building structure that can withstand double the installed fan weight. • • Caution do not install the fan from a single structure such as a perlin, truss, i-beam, or bar joist. For any questions or concerns regarding the building structure, consult a structural engineer. • Ensure the attachment point can support double two time the weight of the fan and maximum torque of 75ft lbs.

1 MOUNTING I NS TA L L AT I O N A B C D Select proper strut channel from chart below. Use strut channel or simular to span mulitiple points of the building structure and create a stable attachment point for the fan. Bolt fan mounting plate to attachment point using 1/2 grade 5 bolts and nylon locking nuts. Using a fence post level plum the downrod and torque all eight nuts to 65 ft lbs.
2 RETENTION SYSTEM I N S TA L L AT I O N CRUSH HAZARD. To prevent serious injury or death, ALWAYS attach the Retention Cable to the fan motor and secure to the building structure on EVERY fan. A B Wrap retention cable around building structure that can withstand double the installed fan weight. Secure remaining cable to itself with cable clamps. A NOTE Make sure the retension cable extends beyond the end of the downrod. B Secure first clamp on the loose end of the cable.
3 MOTOR ASSEMBLY I NS TA L L AT I O N CRUSH HAZARD. To prevent serious injury or death, ALWAYS attach the Retention Cable to the fan motor and secure to the building structure on EVERY fan. A B C Insert retention link into fork and align holes. To connect the VFD cable to the fan motor, Join the two connectors and twist, making sure they lock together Raise motor, using a lift, up to downrod while pushing cables into downrod.

To prevent serious injury or death: • BEFORE installing or servicing your fan, ALWAYS disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breaker or breakers to the fan locations and confirm Lockout/ Tagout procedures are in place. • If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the off position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the electrical panel.
I NS TA L L AT I O N 4 CONTROL PANEL A B C D The control panel should be mounted five feet outside of the swept area of the fan. Position the control panel with plug connectors facing down. Connect VFD cable from fan to the Industrial Control Panel. Twist to lock in place. Secure excess cable to mounting location. Connect he communication cable (Cat 5) to one of the COMM terminals and run cable down to the control location.
5 STANDARD CONTROL I N S TA L L AT I O N A B C D Remove cover to access mounting holes. Mount control box using mount holes in back of the box. Once the control box has been mounted reattach cover. Plug in RJ45 cable from control panel to side of control box.

Remember to install with the numbers facing up. C D Tighten the nylon locknuts on the the press studs using the 19mm wrench or socket. Repeat steps A-C for each of the three remaining blades. B A C NOTE The blade is marked with a number to signify which size fan it goes with.

RE F E R E N C E MAINTENANCE Electric Shock Hazard Electric Shock Hazard. To prevent serious injury or death: • • • BEFORE performing maintenance or service, ALWAYS disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breaker or breakers to the fan locations and confirm Lockout/Tagout procedures are in place. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the off position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the electrical panel. Do not remove covers while power is on.
TROUBLESHOOTING RE F E R E N C E Symptom FAN WILL NOT START IF THE ABOVE IS VERIFIED AS WITHIN SPECIFICATION MOTOR IS PULLING EXESSIVELY HIGH AMPS FAN IS “SWINGING” AS IT RUNS Possible solution • Verify that the fan’s circuit breaker has power and it is on. • Does the VFD’s receptacle have power and is the VFD plugged in? • Check for secured plug connections. Each connection should be checked to ensure they are fully engaged. • Inspect for loose wiring connections.
