IMPORTANT! Handle for model PC 3021 is
packed in the corner of the shipping carton.
Remove before discarding box.
Your “PC” is equipped with TWO (2) encapsu-
lated nuts, factory installed, inside the barrel of
the fan. To attach the handle to the barrel remove
the TWO hex head machine bolts from the pack-
age, insert them through the holes provided in
the handle, and screw them into the encapsu-
lated nuts. CAUTION: Do not over tighten. This
will cause the handle to collapse and the bolts to
become loose.
PRIOR to assembling handle to barrel, insert
handle bolts into encapsulated nuts in barrel.
With bolts inserted make certain they are 90° to
the holes in the handle. If required, bend bolts UP
or DOWN to align properly.
