Hanging the Motor/Impeller Assembly 

If you purchased an Electrical Box with your system, it is recommended that you wire the 
6’ whip into the wiring box of the motor first, prior to hanging the motor/impeller assembly.  
Please refer to the Electrical Box instruction sheet for more detail. 

1.  Hang the motor/impeller assembly: 

a.  With the help of your installation partner, turn the motor/impeller assembly over so that 

the fins of the impeller are facing downward.   

b.  Rotate the assembly so that the wiring box on the motor will be accessible, once 

mounted.   

b.  Slide the assembly onto the Wall Mounting brackets – the hanger plate can be 

situated either lengthwise or widthwise, depending on installation.   

2.  The motor/impeller assembly will be secured to the Wall Mounting Brackets after the cyclone 

has been installed. This allows for the ability to move the motor/impeller assembly in or out a 
couple of inches to make installation of the cyclone easier. 

  

Do NOT turn the motor on until the system is completely 

assembled, including the collection drum. Doing so may cause 

the circuit breaker to trip, physical damage to the system and/or 

bodily harm.
