This warranty does not apply to any FanAm product or part which has failed as a result of faulty installation or abuse, incorrect electrical connections or alterations made
by others, or use under abnormal operating conditions or misapplication of the products or parts. We will not approve for payment any repairs not made by us or our
authorized agent without prior written consent. The foregoing shall constitute our sole and exclusive warranty and our sole and exclusive liability, and is in lieu of all other
warranties, whether written, oral, implied or statutory. There are no warranties which extend beyond the description on the page hereof. We do not warranty that said
goods and articles are of merchantable quality nor that they are fit for a particular purpose. Our liability on any claim of any kind, including negligence, for any loss or
damage arising from or connected with, or resulting from, the sale and purchase of the products and parts covered by this proposal, acknowledgement, order or from the
performance or breach of any contract pertaining to such sale of purchase, or from the design, manufacture, sale, delivery, resale, installation, technical direction in
installation, inspection, repair, operation or use of any product or part covered by the proposal, acknowledgement, order or furnished by FanAm shall, in no case, exceed
the price allocable to the products or parts thereof which give rise to the claim and shall terminate at the end of the applicable warranty period of said product or part. In
no event whether as a result of breach of contract, or warranty or alleged negligence, defect, incorrect advice or other causes, shall FanAm be liable for special or
consequential damages, including but not limited to loss of profits or revenue, loss of use of equipment or any associated equipment, cost of capital, cost of substitute
equipment, facilities or services, downtime cost, or claims of customers of purchases for such damages. FanAm neither assumes nor authorizes any person to assume for
it any other liability in connection with the sale of its products or parts. Some jurisdiction do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages,
so the above limitations and exclusions may not apply to you.
LIMITED WARRANTY
FanAm warrants its products and parts to be free from defects in workmanship and service for period of one (1) year from the date of purchase. Products and parts not
specifically designed for use in a corrosive or explosive environment shall have no warranty and the user assumes full liability for use in such environments. Our
obligation under this warranty is limited to the repair or replacement as our option, without cost at our facility, of any part or parts thereof which shall, within the
warranty period, be returned to us with transportation charges prepaid, and which our examination discloses as being defective. All requests for repair or replacement
must be directed to FanAm for authorization prior to the return of any product or part. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights in
the jurisdiction in which you reside. (It is incumbent upon the claiment to provide substantiation of purchase of installation dates if such question should arise.)
DISCLAIMER
FanAm Inc. has made a diligent effort to illustrate and describe the products in this literature accurately however, such illustrations and descriptions are for the sole
purpose of identification, and do not express or imply a warranty that the products are merchantable, or fit for a particular purpose, or that the products will necessarily

CAV Series
Maintenance
The CAV motors have sealed ball bearings
and are permanently lubricated, requiring
very little maintenance. The impeller (fan
wheel) and housing should be cleaned
periodically to remove any dirt or other build
up that may occur.
Caution
Always turn off the power before attempting
any work or maintenance on the unit. If the
utility blower housing and impeller require
rinsing to clean, a drain plug may need to be
installed to drain collected water from the
housing. Motors are not washdown duty. If
housing is drilled to install drain plug, be
careful not to damage the impeller.
SPECIAL WIRING PRECAUTIONS
All installations should be wired according to the
supplied diagrams. Failure to comply will cause the motor
to “hum” or not work.
1. Turn off power at service entrance before wiring this
fan.
2. Read the fan serial number to determine the current
draw. Check that available supply is suitable.
3. Be certain to use proper connector type for securing
conduit cable.
4. Connect electrical supply as indicated on supplied
wiring diagrams.
Troubleshooting
1. If fan fails to operate, please check the following:
a) Consult wiring diagrams included to assure proper connection.
b) To assure proper contact, check motor lead wiring, incoming supply wiring and capacitor
connections.
c) If possible, use a meter to test for continuity between fan leads. Please note that the
capacitor will show no reading if tested with a meter.
d) Please assure proper rotation of impeller (clockwise (CW) if looking into the hub of the
blower).
2. If fan still fails to operate, consult a FanAm distributor for return/replacement instructions.
