Both motor shaft and fan bore must be completely free of
paint, grease, oil and dirt. If necessary, clean the surfaces
with non-petroleum based solvent, such as isopropyl alco-
hol. Insert the bushing into the fan, making sure the mating
hub is flush against the shoulder at the flats. Position the
assembly at the desired location on the motor shaft and
hand tighten nut (clockwise) until the assembly becomes
snug on the shaft.
Using a torque wrench and a 1¾” socket, tighten the nut to
the proper installation torque. See Table 3 for torque value.
Fan should overlap inlet cone by 3/8” [9 mm] and have a
clearance of 1/16” [2 mm]. Motor/fan assembly position is
adjustable by loosening the four bolts (#3, Figure 7) and
sliding shelf forwards and back.

the exhaust filters and slide the cassette out of the unit.

sette seals. Proper support must be provided so the cas-
sette is not dropped.
