INTRODUCTION
Receiving and Handling
PennBarry fans are carefully inspected before leaving the factory. When the unit is received, inspect the carton/crate for any signs of
tampering. Inspect the unit for any damage that may have occurred during transit and check for loose, missing or damaged parts.
Mishandled units can void the warranty provisions. If units are damaged in transit, it is the responsibility of the receiver to make all
claims against the carrier. PennBarry is not responsible for damages incurred during shipment.
Avoid severe jarring and/or dropping. Handle units with care to prevent damage to components or finishes. If the unit is scratched
due to mishandling, the protective coating may be damaged. Incorrect lifting may damage the fan and void the warranty.
Storage
Long-term storage requires special attention. Store units on a level, solid surface, preferably indoors. If outside storage is necessary,
protect the units against moisture and dirt by encasing the carton/crates in plastic or in some similar weatherproof material.
Periodically inspect units and rotate wheels to spread bearing lubricant. Failure to rotate wheels results in reduced bearing life and
may void the manufacturer’s warranty. If the unit will be stored for an extended time, remove belts. Belts which remain under tension
in a stationary position for extended periods are likely to have a reduced operating life.
Unpacking
Place the carton/crate in an upright position and remove the staples or use a sharp (knife edge) tool to carefully cut or scribe the
sealing tape on both sides at the top of the carton/crate. Open carton/crate flaps. Remove any cardboard and wooden filler pieces,
as well as loose components or accessories shipped with the unit.
Carefully remove the unit from the carton/ crate. Inspect the unit for any damage that may have occurred during transit and check
for loose, missing or damaged parts.
