service agent or suitably qualified persons;
•
That the fan is to be installed so that the blades are more than 10ft [3.05m] above the floor;
•
The model or type reference of a luminaire that may be installed in a fan constructed for
this purpose.
DAMAGED EQUIPMENT
Do not operate or install any fans or fan accessories that appear to be damaged. Failure to follow
this instruction can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

If the fan does not operate properly using the procedures in this manual,
BE CERTAIN TO
REMOVE ALL POWER TO THE UNIT

Keep clear of moving parts at all times. All electrical troubleshooting and repair must be done by
a qualified technician and meet all applicable codes.
Ensure that the replacement of parts of the safety suspension system device shall be performed
by the manufacturer, its service agent or suitably qualified persons.
Key Safety System Components
MacroAir fans are engineered with key safety features to prevent pieces of the fan from falling in
the unlikely event of a catastrophic failure. Used together, these features provide comprehensive
protection of people, equipment and property. Follow the detailed instructions precisely when
installing fans, including the following:
•
Install the safety cable on
EVERY
fan. The safety cable, if installed per MacroAir
specifications, will prevent the fan from falling in the unlikely event that the mounting
system should fail. A MacroAir fan should never be run without a properly installed safety
cable, which is supplied with every fan along with all required hardware. You must install a
safety cable for the warranty to be in effect.
•
Install guy wires on every fan, unless otherwise specified. Properly installing the guy wires
is required for proper stabilization during normal operation for some fan and mounting
types (Universal Mounts). In addition, guy wires keep the fan stable in case of earthquakes
or in “outdoor” installations where high wind conditions may occur.
