Operating & Safety Guide 613
Now choose the direction of the air-flow in both
the horizontal and vertical plane by loosening the
appropriate lock nut lever (see diagram).
On some models the supply lead may require
connecting to the fan unit.
Plug the unit into its power supply, switch ON and
adjust the speed as required.
Fan speed is controlled by either turning a speed
control dial or pressing the appropriate speed
selection button (see diagram).
Where a single control is fitted, press and hold
until the fan reaches the desired speed. To switch
OFF, simply press the button once.
On some models it is possible to oscillate the fan
head to sweep an air-flow from side to side. Before
selecting this option, ensure the fan’s path of
travel will not be obstructed.
To start the oscillation, lightly pull up the oscillation
control, to stop simply push the control back.
Do remember that the air-flow will disturb dust,
litter and possibly someone’s carefully prepared
paper work, so ... think before you switch ON!
If the model of cooling fan is not giving sufficient air-
flow, either, hire a larger model or additional fans.
When not in use store the fan somewhere clean,
dry and safe from thieves.
Switch the fan OFF and where applicable, lower
and adjust the fan position.
Neatly coil the cable ready for return to your local
HSS Hire Shop.

For advice on the safety and suitability of this
equipment contact your local HSS Hire Shop.
Keep children, animals and bystanders away from
the fan. Never leave them alone in a room where
the unit is in use.
Never use this equipment if you are ill, feeling
tired, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
This equipment should only be used by a
competent person who has read and understood
these instructions.
Always switch OFF and unplug the equipment
before use. If it shows signs of damage or excessive
wear, return it to your local HSS Hire Shop.
Never use the equipment if highly flammable
vapours – petrol or paint thinner fumes for
example – are present.
Never carry or pull the equipment by its flex
or hoses.
Never lean over the fan or obstruct its air-flow.
Leave a 900mm gap all round to let air circulate.
Avoid loose garments and jewellery that could catch
in moving parts, tie back long hair.
Information on COSHH regulations is available from your
local HSS Hire Shop.
Most HSS Cooling Fans plug into a standard 13amp
power socket. However, 110V models (with a round
yellow plug) must be provided with a suitable 110V
generated supply, or powered from the mains via a
suitable 110V transformer.
If the equipment fails, or if its flex or plug gets
damaged, return it. Never try to repair it yourself.
Keep flexes out of harm’s way, and clear of any
walk-way.
Extension leads should be fully unwound and
loosely coiled, away from the equipment. Never
run them through water, over sharp edges or
where they could trip someone.
Keep the fan dry. Using electrical equipment in
very damp or wet conditions can be dangerous.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, use a
suitable RCD (Residual Current-Operated Device)
available from your local HSS Hire Shop, or power the
equipment from a mains circuit with a built-in RCD.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
GENERAL SAFETY Ensure the fan and power socket are switched OFF
before plugging into the power supply.
Set the unit up on a firm, level surface where air
from the fan can circulate freely through the area
and where motor noise will not be a nuisance.
Adjust the height of the fan by loosening either
the wing nut or turning the lock collar, raise or
lower as required then re-tighten.
