General Safety Information
Only qualified personnel should install this fan system.
Personnel should have a clear understanding of these
instructions and should be aware of general safety
precautions. Improper installation can result in electric
shock, possible injury due to coming in contact with
moving parts, as well as other potential hazards. Other
considerations may be required if high winds or seismic
activity are present. If more information is needed,
contact a licensed professional engineer before moving

objects.
3. Motor must be securely and adequately grounded.
4. Do not spin fan wheel faster than maximum
cataloged fan RPM. Adjustments to fan speed
significantly effects motor load. If the fan RPM is
changed, the motor current should be checked to
make sure it is not exceeding the motor nameplate
amps.
