ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:

Base Assembly:
You will need the base cover, weighted insert, 1 pole (either can be used,
they are interchangeable) and base nut.
STEP 1. Insert 1 pole through the base cover and twist pole clockwise to
lock in position.
Be careful to
align the
cutaway /
grooves on the
threaded joint
(male end),
(see figure # 1)
with the two
protruding
raised pieces
inside the hol-
low end of the
base cover,
(see figure #1).
STEP 2. Now turn the base cover upside down (pole facing floor) and
place the weighted insert into the base cover. The pole threads will
be exposed as they protrude through the base insert.
Note: Hold the pole, base cover and weighted insert in one hand while
tightening the base nut with the other hand.
STEP 3. Now, place the base nut on the threaded section and hand tighten
base nut to securely fasten the pole to the base.
Note: Do not use a tool to tighten the base nut.
Pole Assembly:
You will need the second pole.
Note: The poles are interchangeable.
Insert the pole with the threaded
joint (male end), (see figure # 2)
into the hollow end of the second
pole (female end), (see figure # 2)
until both poles meet. Be careful to
align the cutaway / grooves on the
threaded joint (male end) with the
two protruding pieces inside the hol-
low end of the second pole (female
end).
Now, slowly turn the pole with the
threaded joint clockwise to lock it
securely in place (see figure #2).
Fan Head Assembly:
You are now ready to assemble the fan head (See Figure #3)
STEP 1. Position the rear grill over the motor shaft, making certain the 2
notches at the top and bottom of the rear grill fit over the 2
prongs on the motor housing. Please make sure the rear grill fits
securely against the motor housing.
STEP 2. Fasten the rear grill in place using the rear grill mounting nut.
Turn the nut clockwise and tighten firmly.
STEP 3. Slide the fan blade, with the hollowed interior of the blade facing
towards the rear grill firmly onto the motor shaft. Make sure the
motor shaft pin lines up with the recessed groove in the back of
the fan blade. Also, be sure the shaft protrudes from the front of
the blade.
STEP 4. Secure fan blade onto the motor shaft by turning the blade cap
counter-clockwise (make sure the blade is firmly in position.)
STEP 5. Install the front grill by snapping the circular front grill center
logo plate in place.
STEP 6. Center the front grill, aligning the Holmes logo so it is horizontal
and parallel to the floor, place onto the rear grill, and snap in
place. Secure by tightening the grill screw at the bottom of the
rear grill.
Final Assembly:
Insert the fan head neck joint (see figure #3) into
the hollow end of the top pole and slowly turn the neck joint to lock in
place. Be careful to align the cutaway/grooves on the neck joint with the
two protruding raised pieces inside the hollow end of the pole. Lastly,
