If  necessary  adjust  fan  ring  or  fan  stack  by  shimming  to  obtain 
proper  clearance.  For  heat  exchangers,  spacers  may  be  added  at 
the  fan  ring  joints  to  increase  clearance  (See  Figure  10).  Use  a 
chisel to maintain the correct gap until the bolts on the ring are re-
tightened. 

Figure 10 

If a small adjustment is needed, tighten or loosen nut on fan strut 
in section requiring adjustment (See Figure 11).

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

 

Start fan and check rotation. Viewed from top (discharge), fan 
blades should rotate clockwise. 
 
Check  motor  power  consumption  to  be  sure  fan  is  pulling  d 
desired  load. 

CAUTION:  If  positive  pitch  is  set  in  summer  to 

use all available motor amps (nameplate rating), motor could 
be overloaded in winter.

 

Design pitch angles usually do not use 

all  of  the  available  motor  horsepower.  This  ensures  that  the 
motors will not be overloaded at low winter temperatures.
