or seismic activity are present. If more information
is needed, contact a licensed professional engineer
before moving forward.
1. Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as
well as the National Electrical Code (NEC), the
National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA), where
applicable. Follow the Canadian Electric Code
(CEC) in Canada.
DANGER

2. The rotation of the wheel is critical. It must be
free to rotate without striking or rubbing any
stationary objects.
3. Motor must be securely and adequately
grounded.
4. Do not spin fan wheel faster than the maximum
cataloged fan rpm. Adjustments to fan speed
significantly affects 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.
5. Do not allow the power cable to kink or come
in contact with oil, grease, hot surfaces,
or chemicals. Replace cord immediately if
damaged.
6. Verify that the power source is compatible with
the equipment.
7. Never open blower access doors while the fan is
running.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
If you smell gas:
1. Open windows.
2. Do not touch electrical switches.
3. Extinguish any open flame.
4. Immediately call your gas supplier.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
The use and storage of gasoline or
other flammable vapors and liquids in
open containers in the vicinity of this
appliance is hazardous.
WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment,
alteration, service or maintenance can
cause property damage, injury or death.
Read the installation, operating and
maintenance instructions thoroughly
before installing or servicing this
equipment.
