1. Upon purchase, the fan equipment should be visually inspected
to check for any damage. Ensure that the impeller has free rotation
without scraping or catching on any part of the internal housing.
2. If there are any questions concerning the fan equipment, Hydro-
farm or the retailer should be contacted prior to the installation.
3. Use the mounting brackets included with the fan system to securely
fasten the unit in the desired mounting position. (Refer to FIGURE 1 &
2 for mounting options)

rect power supply (voltage, frequency and phase) is available. An
incorrect power supply may lead to permanent damage to the fan
motor.

MAINTENANCE:
All Active Air™ series in-line duct fans incorporate sealed for life bear-
ings and therefore do not require any lubrication. We would recom-
mend inspection of the product at least once every 12 months to
ensure that the motor, impellor, and supporting guards are clean. All
fastenings should be checked for tightness and security. In addition,
all rotating items should be checked. To inspect the unit, disconnect it
from the power supply and any duct work. If debris is evident on the
impeller, clean it with a damp (not wet) cloth. DO NOT use any deter-
gents or abrasive materials for cleaning.
