Machined parts coated with rust preventive should 
be restored to good condition promptly if signs of 
rust occur. Immediately remove the original rust 
preventive coating with petroleum solvent and clean 
with lint-free cloths. Polish any remaining rust from 
surface with crocus cloth or fine emery paper and oil. 
Do not destroy the continuity of the surfaces. Wipe 
clean thoroughly with Tectyl

 506 (Ashland Inc.) or 

the equivalent. For hard to reach internal surfaces or 
for occasional use, consider using Tectyl

 or the equivalent.

Receiving

Upon receiving the product, check to make sure 
all items are accounted for by referencing the bill 
of lading to ensure all items were received. Inspect 
each crate for shipping damage before accepting 
delivery. Notify the carrier if any damage is noticed. 
The carrier will make notification on the delivery 
receipt acknowledging any damage to the product. 
All damage should be noted on all the copies of the 
bill of lading which is countersigned by the delivering 
carrier. A Carrier Inspection Report should be filled 
out by the carrier upon arrival and reported to the 
Traffic Department. If damaged upon arrival, file claim 
with carrier. Any physical damage to the unit after 
acceptance is not the responsibility of Greenheck Fan 
Corporation.

Unpacking

Verify that all required parts and the correct quantity 
of each item have been received. If any items are 
missing, report shortages to your local representative 
to arrange for obtaining missing parts. Sometimes it 
is not possible that all items for the unit be shipped 
together due to availability of transportation and truck 
space. Confirmation of shipment(s) must be limited to 
only items on the bill of lading.

Handling

Units are to be rigged and moved by the provided 
lifting points or fork lifting points (see page 4). Handle 
each piece in such a way as to keep from scratching 
or chipping the coating. Damaged finish may reduce 
ability of the unit to resist corrosion.

Storage

Units are protected against damage during shipment. 
If the unit cannot be installed and operated 
immediately, precautions need to be taken to 
prevent deterioration of the unit during storage. 
The user assumes responsibility of the unit and 
accessories while in storage. The manufacturer will 
not be responsible for damage during storage. These 
suggestions are provided solely as a convenience to 
the user.

Inspection and Maintenance during 

Storage

While in storage, inspect units once per month. Keep 
a record of inspection and maintenance performed
If moisture or dirt accumulations are found on parts, 
the source should be located and eliminated. At each 
inspection, rotate all moving components by hand 
ten to fifteen revolutions to distribute lubricant on 
motor and bearings. If paint deterioration begins, 
consideration should be given to touch-up or 
repainting. Units with special coatings may require 
special techniques for touch-up or repair.
