Installing Guy Wires (cont.)

3. Route guy wire through Gripple

®
Route the guy wire through the Gripple, the carabiner on the main fan unit, and then back through the Gripple as shown. Do not tighten
the Gripple until the remaining guy wires have been installed.
Note: To back the guy wire out of the Gripple, insert 1/16 (1.5 mm) Allen wrench into the small hole on the Gripple.

4. Install remaining guy wires

Wire Rope Clip
CAUTION: Over-tightening the guy wires could throw the fan off balance.
Repeat steps 2–3 to install the three remaining guy wires.
Evenly cinch all four guy wires into place using the Gripples. The guy wires should be taut,
evenly spaced around the fan, and away from the path of the airfoils. Maintain a distance of 6"–8"
between the Gripple and the carabiner.
Once all of the guy wires are taut, secure their loose ends with the wire rope clips and torque to
4.5 ft·lb (8.1 N·m). Ensure all electrical cords/cables are unobstructed by the guy wire system.
