Fan should only be serviced by qualified

personnel with HVAC equipment

experience.

Disconnect fan from power supply before

servicing fan. Lock the switch in the “OFF”

(open) position and/or tag the switch to

prevent unexpected power application.

1. After repairing any component:

a. Check that electrical connections are correct and

secure.

b. Remove any foreign material from enclosures.

c. Install and secure all covers.

d. Ensure that all fasteners are tight.

e. Remove all foreign objects from fan.

f. Ensure air exits through dampers and fan rotates

counterclockwise when viewed from rear of fan

(see Figure 8).

MOTOR, FAN, AND

FAN GUARD

1. Remove the (8) screws and washers that are holding the fan

grills to the shroud (see Figure 9).

2. Remove the (4) bolts and nuts that are holding the motor to

the motor mount (see Figure 10).

3. Remove the motor, fan and grills from the frame by lifting the

motor (see Figure 11).

4. Before removing the fan, measure and record the location of

the fan hub on the motor shaft (see Figure 12). If fan is difficult

to remove, use a gear puller on the fan hub.

5. To reassemble, place grills with grill clips onto motor (see

Figure 12) then position fan on motor shaft and tighten set

screws.

6. Place motor assembly onto motor mount and fasten the fan

guard to cabinet.

7. Center fan in shroud opening. Leave approximately 1/16” to

3/16” (1.6 to 4.8mm) gap between the motor and fan guard.

(see Figure 13).

8. Bolt motor to motor mount. Manually spin the fan blade to

ensure it rotates freely before applying power.

9. Air must exit through dampers and fan must rotate counter

clockwise when viewing from the rear of the fan

(see Figure 9).
