Receiving
Upon receiving the product, check to ensure all
items are accounted for by referencing the delivery
receipt or packing list. Inspect each crate or carton
for shipping damage before accepting delivery. Alert
the carrier of any damage detected. The customer will
make notation of damage (or shortage of items) on
the delivery receipt and all copies of the bill of lading
which is countersigned by the delivering carrier. If
damaged, immediately contact your representative. Any
physical damage to the unit after acceptance is not the
responsibility of the manufacturer.
Unpacking
Verify that all required parts and the correct quantity
of each item have been received. If any items are
missing, report shortages to your local representative to
arrange for obtaining missing parts. Sometimes it is not
possible that all items for the unit be shipped together
due to availability of transportation and truck space.
Confirmation of shipment(s) must be limited to only
items on the bill of lading.
Handling
When lifting the unit onto the roof, use either the four
lifting points on the drive frame or the two lifting points
on the bearing plate if present, see Figure 1 for lifting
points. Access to the drive frame is accomplished by
removing the screws pointed out in Figure 2. The cover
can then be removed and placed on a flat surface in an
area protected from strong winds.
When the unit is on the roof, move fan to desired
location using lifting points and fasten securely
according to mounting details outlined in the Installation
section pertaining to your application. Shims may be
necessary depending upon roofing material thickness.
The motor amperage and voltage ratings must be
checked for compatibility to supply voltage prior to
final electrical connection. Wiring must conform to local
and national codes. Consult local code authorities for
specific requirements.
Storage
Fans are protected against damage during shipment. If
the unit cannot be installed and operated immediately,
precautions need to be taken to prevent deterioration of
the unit during storage. The user assumes responsibility
of the fan and accessories while in storage. The
manufacturer will not be responsible for damage during
storage. These suggestions are provided solely as a
convenience to the user.
Indoor -
The ideal environment for the storage of
fans and accessories is indoors, above grade, in a
low humidity atmosphere which is sealed to prevent
the entry of blowing dust, rain or snow. Temperatures
should be evenly maintained between 30° to 110°F
(-1° to 43°C)
(wide temperature swings may cause
condensation and “sweating” of metal parts). All
accessories must be stored indoors in a clean, dry
atmosphere.
Remove any accumulations of dirt, water, ice, or snow
and wipe dry before moving to indoor storage. To avoid
“sweating” of metal parts, allow cold parts to reach
room temperature. To dry parts and packages, use
a portable electric heater to get rid of any moisture
buildup. Leave coverings loose to permit air circulation
and to allow for periodic inspection.
IMPORTANT
Do not lift by the fan hood. Avoid lifting fans in a way
that will bend or distort fan parts. Never pass slings or
timbers through the venturi of fan. Fans with special
coatings or paints must be protected in handling to
prevent damage.
