INSTALLATION 
 
1.    Cut and frame the appropriate wall opening. Fans mounted to a wall require a different wall opening than fans 
      mounted in cabinets or sleeves. For specic dimensions, refer to the submittal drawing for the specic fan 
      conguration. 
 
2.    Mount the fan in the opening with the fan panel directly over the load bearing support and if this is not practical 
      angle supports must be provided to transfer the fan weight to the load bearing structure. 
 
3.    Caution: The fan contains rotating parts and requires electrical service. Appropriate safety precautions should 
      be taken during installation, operation and maintenance. 
 
4.    Warning: Do not install or operate this fan in an environment where combustible materials, gasses or fumes 
      are present unless it was specically designed and manufactured for that application. 
 
5.    A damper, if used, should be securely mounted in a manner that allows free and unobstructed operation. 
 
6.    All electrical work must be done, in accordance with all applicable electrical codes, by a qualied electrician.  
      Please follow all applicable national, state/provincial and local codes, all of them will supersede this manual. 
 
7.    Prior to wiring ensure the power supply is locked in the OFF position and that the motor nameplate voltage 
      and the supply voltage match. 
 
8.    Be sure to keep all wiring clear of any rotating parts.  
 
9.    Before starting the fan ensure that the wheel rotates freely.
