The PC fan is supported by a rubber band type suspension. It is important that the fan sits central to the
housing and that there is a loop in the fan motor wiring harness between the motor and the housing. This
loop should be on a horizontal plane to the fan motor. This also applies to the FC suspended fan.

back in to the housing.
