Qmark Specialty Ceiling Fans - Manual (Page 2)

CAUTION:Do not allow the permanently installed
lower canopy to touch the revolving motor as
damage will occur. Make sure all wires are securely
placed to avoid rubbing against the motor.
CAUTION: Blades must be fastened to the motor as
shown in Figure 2. DO NOT reverse blades when
installing.
NOTE: Blades are weight balanced per set. DO NOT mix
on multiple fan installations.
NOTE:Do not bend fan blade brackets.
WARNING: DISCONNECT CIRCUIT POWER BEFORE
MAKING ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury,
install the primary mounting directly from building
structure and use only the hardware provided with
the fan.
4. Before attaching the appropriate “J” hook to the
building structure member note the following:
IMPORTANT: WHEN MOUNTING THIS FAN THE
SUPPORT BEAM MUST BE SUITABLE FOR A 50
POUND LOAD LIMIT
CAUTION: If pilot hole is used with the wood thread
hook, the pilot hole should be drilled no larger than
the minor diameter of the screw threads on the hook.
Do not put a lubricant on the “J” hook. At least 1-1/2’
of the screw threads should be secured into the
structural wood joist. When the threaded bolt hook
is used, be careful to secure tightly with supplied
lockwashers and nuts. Attach the hook as instructed
and hang the fan.
5. This fan is equipped with the required “secondary
support” cable. This cable must be affixed to the beam
structure and securely clamped in such a manner to
support the weight of the fan in the event the
mounting hook or other parts fail. After wrapping cable
around a structural member that will support 300
lbs., secure cable with supplied cable clamps as
illustrated in Figure 3. (NOTE: Any additional materi-
als needed for specific installations may be purchased
from your local distributor.)
NOTICE: Leave approximately 3” but no more than 5” of
slack on this safety cable to allow for possible fan
movement. Do not exceed more than 5” total slack.
IMPORTANT CAUTION: The safety cable must not be
placed between the rubber roller and hook, but
rather as Illustrated in Figure 4.
Assembly
This fan includes a “secondary support” safety cable fea-
ture that complies with existing C.S.A. (Canadian
Standards Association) requirements and all other
proposed safety regulations for overhead air movement
equipment. To insure proper installation of this important
safety feature, please read and follow these instructions
carefully.
( Refer to Figure 2. )
1. Carefully lift out the motor with attached rod assembly
from the protective styrofoam package and place
assembled motor on a flat work surface. This fan is
supplied pre-wired and pre-assembled except for the
blades.
2. If inspection is desired, slide lower canopy (C) and
neoprene rod seal (B) gently up the downrod (A). To
place the lower canopy (C) back into the lower boot
cover (D) gently force the canopy rim into the molded
opening and push down 1/2” until secure fit is
obtained.
3. Affix the three blades, curved side down to the motor
with the isolation pad mounted between the blade and
the fan. Make sure blade holder is flat against motor
platform when you tighten blade nuts for secure fit.
NOTICE: The safety cable should be taped to one side
of the yoke with electrical tape to prevent the cable from
resting on top of motor during running operation.
CAUTION: Make sure that blades are attached as
shown.
