Operation
1. Motor is set for 90˚ sweep when assembled at factory. Make sure both bolts on actuating arm are
tight. See Figure 1. Be sure that lockshaft (3) in Figure 1 is securely tightened full counter clock-
wise to obtain the “sweep” action. Tighten lockshaft only when blade or motor is at rest. The lock-
shaft may be hand tightened or a pair of pliers may be used to snug the lockshaft.
2. “Straight blow” (fixed position) is obtained by loosening the lockshaft(3) approximately 1/4 turn
clockwise.
3. The lockshaft will loosen and disengage the oscillating mechanism when the fan assembly is
blocked or prevented from making its full sweep. Remove the blockage and re-tighten the lock-
shaft to return to its sweeping action.
4. Fan may be tilted 10˚ up or 10˚ down on both pedestal & wall mount application.
5. Do not tighten set screw on support . This is pre-set at factory.
