UNPACKING YOUR FAN

• Visually inspect the unit for any damage that may have occurred during shipping.

• Contact your shipper immediately if any damage is found.

INSTALLING YOUR FAN

Many Schaefer circulation fans include a fan mount. Additionally, we offer a variety

of wall mounts and ceiling mounts for permanent installations as well as pedestals

and a fan cart for mobile / free-standing applications.

Wall and ceiling mounts must be installed on a support structure strong enough for

the added weight of the mount and fan assembly. The customer is responsible for

determining that their structure is adequate to support these loads.

MOUNTING HARDWARE

The hardware to attach the fan mount to the support structure is not supplied.

Hardware must be adequately sized and be the proper type for your installation

to safely support the fan. Always follow the fastener manufacturers installation

instructions.

ATTACHING THE FAN

TO THE MOUNT

Use the supplied hardware

that came with your fan

to attach it to the mount.

The 3/8” hardware installs

through the center hole of

the motor yoke bracket.

The 1/4” hardware fastens through the slot feature. Adjust the fan to the

desired angle and securely tighten all mounting hardware.

Fan mount designs may vary. Fan must always be attached to the mount

through center hole of the motor yoke bracket using 3/8” hardware.

CAUTION: Fasteners may loosen over time. It is important to check and tighten fasteners frequently.

CAUTION: Inspect fan components and fasteners frequently for corrosion. Replace any corroded fasteners or parts.
