Assembling Your Arctic

Base and Pedestal Tube Assembly
1. Interlock the criss-cross bases.
Remove the four screws from the
criss-cross bases, and align these
four holes with those on the flange.
Secure the flange to the criss-cross
bases with the four screws. This might
require a bit of force.
Fig. 1
2. Loosen and remove the Height
Adjustable Ring. Slide the criss-cross
collar over the support tube. (Fig.
2) Extend the support tube. A bit of
force may be required to grasp the
support tube, located inside the
Pedestal Extension Tube. Re-attach
and tighten the Height Adjustment
Ring to prevent slipping.

the Pedestal Extension Tube.
4. Tighten the screw to secure the
motor head housing to the Pedestal
Extension Tube.
Fan Head Assembly
1. Remove the Blade Cap from the
Motor shaft by turning it clockwise,
and then remove the Guard Locking
Nut by turning it anti-clockwise.
2. Thread the Motor shaft through the
centre hole of the Rear Grille, placing
the Rear Grille into position. Make sure
that the carry handle, on the back of
the Rear Grille is located above the
motor housing. Ensure the Rear Grille
is aligned with the locating pins and
fix the grille into position by replacing
the Guard Locking Nut. Make sure that
the Rear Grille has not slipped off the
locating pins before tightening. This
should be done by hand. Do not force.
NOTE: When positioning the
Rear Grille on the Motor shaft,
always ensure the carry handle
on the grille is positioned in the
upright position.
3. Insert the Plastic Blade onto the Motor
shaft, and match the pin slots in the
blade with the Motor shaft pin.
4. Fix the blade into place by tightening
the Blade Cap onto the Motor shaft in
an anti-clockwise direction. This should
be done by hand. Do not force.
