Then mount the wire through the designated hole in the base plate and into the wire lock. Tighten the safety wire slightly and then tighten the wire lock, so that the chimney fan is secured when opened for service and cleaning purposes.
If two or more fans are required to create suffi- cient draft, a special adapter plate is required (not an Exodraft part). The two holes in the plate should match the throat diameter of the fan model used and the distance from center to center should be at least equal to the fan width.
In accordance with the provisions of the applicable EU Machinery Directive a combustion-gas fan must always have an isolation switch fitted. The isolation switch must comply with national wiring standards, and it must be ordered separately, as it is not part of the standard Exodraft scope of delivery. 20 | UK...
Turn the chimney fan ON and make sure that it is turning. Increase and decrease the speed of the fan by adjusting the speed control to make sure the fan is operating properly.
