Warnings
Read and follow all instructions before operating fan. Do not use fan if any
parts are damaged or missing. Do not bend blades.
Do not expose the fans to water from a high-pressure cleaner (pressure
washer). Doing so could lead to electrical shock or damage to the motor.
Always disconnect fan from power outlet before cleaning, moving or
repositioning.
To clean, simply wipe down with soapy water & gently rinse with a hose.
Dry fan before reconnecting to power outlet.
Never insert ngers or any other objects through grills while fan is operating.
Do not operate mist in freezing weather conditions. Misting components must
be winterized to prevent damage.
Motor bearings are sealed and do not require additional lubrication.
When securing power cables on outdoor installations, loop them below and
back up to the power outlet. This makes any moisture collection on the cable
drip to the oor instead of into the outlet.
Included instructions are written for U.S. wiring standards and building
codes. Please refer to your local wiring standards and building codes to
avoid complications or personal injury.

Operation
Power & Speed Control
The tower fan model has a built-in switch, but does not have speed controls.
It is not recommended to connect the fan power to a variable speed control
(rheostat), as the motor is not designed to handle that.
Misting
A high-pressure misting pump (sold separately) is required to use the misting
function. See the misting pump’s manual for operating instructions. HydroMist
recommends the quiet Digi-Pro pump.
Winterizing Instructions for Misting Fan Heads
1. Remove all nozzles from fan ring. This allows the nylon hose and rings to
completely drain, which prevents breakage due to freezing.
2. Clean the nozzles with 50/50 diluted vinegar and warm water. Do not
use harsh chemicals as they will harm the o-rings.
3. Store nozzles in a small container or baggie to prevent them from
collecting dust while not in use.
4. For harsh winter weather conditions, cover or store the fan heads to
prevent them from becoming damaged.
Replacement Parts
Please contact HydroMist for pricing and availability of replacement parts.
