Hoisting Information
Failure to lift the fan correctly can
result in severe personal injury
and/or property damage.
A crane or forklift and qualified operator are
recommended for unloading, assembly, and
installation of the fan.
Use all lifting points provided.
Fans should be lifted by the base, mounting supports,
or lifting points only. Never lift a fan by the wheel, shaft,
motor, motor bracket, housing inlet, outlet, or any fan part
not designed for lifting.
Use clevis connectors, not hooks, on lifting slings.
Check the Specification Control drawing for weight and
dimensions of the fan to ensure adequate crane capacity.
Refer to applicable OSHA regulations and local codes
when using cranes, forklifts, and other lifting equipment.
Use drift pins to align holes in flanges during assembly.
Storage
Check dampers for free operation and lubricate
moving parts prior to storage. Inspect the stored fan
periodically. Rotate the wheel by hand every two weeks
to redistribute grease on motor bearing parts.
