1. Safety Safety Guidelines Safety guidelines are general-to-specific safety rules that must be followed at all times. This manual is written to help you understand safe operating procedures and problems that can be encountered by the operator and other personnel when using this equipment. Read and save these instructions. As owner or operator, you are responsible for understanding the requirements, hazards, and precautions that exist and to inform others as required.
1. Safety Cautionary Symbols Definitions Cautionary symbols appear in this manual and on product decals. The symbols alert the user of potential safety hazards, prohibited activities and mandatory actions. To help you recognize this information, we use the symbols that are defined below. This symbol indicates an imminently hazardous situation DANGER which, if not avoided, will result in serious injury or death.

1. Safety Prevent Roof Damage Due to Vacuum Pressure • Roof damage can result from excessive vacuum or internal pressure from fans or other air moving systems. The manufacturer does not warrant this type of roof damage. • Adequate ventilation or “makeup air” devices must be provided for all powered air handling systems.
Page 10
1. Safety Handle and Use Equipment Properly • Equipment is intended for the use of grain drying only. Any other use is a misuse of this equipment. • The operating instructions in this manual pertain to the common cereal grains as indicated. When drying any other grain, contact GSI for additional recommendations.

2. Safety Decals Roof Damage Warning and Disclaimer The manufacturer does not warrant any roof damage caused by excessive vacuum or internal pressure from fans or other air moving systems. Adequate ventilation and/or “makeup air” devices should be provided for all powered air handling systems. The manufacturer does not recommend the use of downward flow systems (suction).
3. Installation Pre-Installation Requirements Foundation Use the dimension illustration in the specifications section on Page 21 of this manual to determine the physical size of the fan to be installed. Use the dimensions shown to determine the position of the fan installation with respect to other equipment.
3. Installation Fan Installation 1. Remove packaging materials and inspect fan for any shipping damages. Report these at once to the shipper. 2. Check all fasteners on the fan to make sure they are tight. (Fasteners may loosen during shipment.) Tighten any loose fasteners, check for proper clearance and re-tighten.
3. Installation The voltage between L1 and N must be 115 VAC. Any other voltage will cause damage to the equipment. Check this voltage before starting unit. If voltage is not within 105 VAC-125 VAC, check for proper voltage on L2 or L3 and move to appropriate leg. If voltage is not acceptable, install a 1/4 KVA step-down transformer.
3. Installation Machine to Earth Ground It is very important that a machine to earth ground rod be installed at the fan. This is true even if there is a ground at the pole 15' away. This ground needs to be as close to the fan as possible, but no more than 8' away.

4. Fan Specifications Fan Pad Location Fan pad should be perpendicular to the bin wall. Fan discharge centerline should lie on the bin centerline. Recommended thickness for pad is 4" minimum. Top surface of pad should be 2" below bin foundation. Fans with downwind heaters require fan pad to be 48"...
5. Operation After initial installation and also prior to using the unit each season, check the operation to ensure proper functioning, adjustment and reliability. Fan Start-Up 1. Make certain the unit is properly installed and connected, as described within the installation section on Page 15 of this manual.
5. Operation Grain Storage Average grain temperature should be above 35°F in the winter and below 65°F in the summer. Always try to keep the grain within 10°F-15°F of the average monthly outside temperature. This means grain may need to be aerated on warm days during the winter to stay above 35°F when freezing temperatures are predominate.
6. User Servicing Instructions and Troubleshooting Important Information Regarding Fuse Replacement This product employs overload protection (fuse). A blown fuse indicates an overload or short circuit situation. If the fuse blows, disconnect all power to the product. Replace the fuse as per the user servicing instructions (follow product marking for proper fuse rating) and check the product.
6. User Servicing Instructions and Troubleshooting Installing the Fan Wheel Assembly 1. Clean the motor shaft, key, bushing and the bore of the hub with a non-residual cleaner, such as brake parts cleaner or electric parts cleaner. It is important that these mating surfaces be clean and dry and no grease or oil is present.

6. User Servicing Instructions and Troubleshooting Lubrication and Bearings Bearing grease will lose its lubricating ability over time, not suddenly. The lubricating ability of a grease (over time) depends primarily on the type of grease, the size of the bearing, the speed at which the bearing operates and the severity of the operating conditions.
