The factory assembled fan head is equipped with a 12 foot long cord and connector. To turn on fan, plut it in; to turn off fan, unplug it.
A cord and connector is not supplied with three phase motors. These fans
will need to be tted with an appropriate cord and connector or hard wired directly to a power source. It the fan is supplied with nger
guards, the rear nger guard will need to be partially removed to access the motors internal wiring. Remove all but one of the self-tap-
ping screws and place them in a safe place. You will use them again. Rotate the guards around on the single self-tapping screw. Wire
the fan. Replace the guard using the saved self tapping screws.
When looking at the front of the fan, the blade should be turning clockwise. It it does not, eth electrical connection wires may need to
be reversed. If reversing the wires does not work, contact your factory representative.
