GRILL & BLADE REMOVAL
(USA ONLY)
REMOVABLE GRILL (USA ONLY)
1. Using a phillips head screwdriver, remove grill by unscrewing the
4 screws located along the perimeter of the inlet grill at roughly
2, 5, 7, and 11 o’clock positions. This will release the grill. To
reattach, position grill so the logo in the center of the grill is
straight. Align the Locator Pin to reconnect grill. Once aligned
replace screws.
2. Dust or wash with a mild dishwashing soap. Do not place grill in
the dishwasher. The excessive heat can distort the plastic.
BLADE REMOVAL (USA ONLY)
1. It is possible to remove the blade should something accidentally
get wrapped around the motor shaft. First, remove the nut from
the shaft. Turn the nut clockwise to loosen. Pull the blade straight
out from the shaft. When replacing, the blade can only go on the
shaft one way. Be certain the flat side of the shaft aligns directly
with the corresponding flat side on the blade’s socket. Push the
blade all the way on the shaft until it bottoms out. Do not use a
hammer as this could result in bearing damage. Reinstall nut.
2. Wipe blade with a damp cloth. If your Air Circulator is used in a
greasy environment, such as a kitchen, mild soap or a common
household cleaner may be necessary. Do not use solvents.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock and injury to persons, unplug the circulator before removing blade.
