for operation by tipping the machine onto one
of the three flat faces of the heavy duty plastic
chassis. The balanced machine design assures
stable positioning.
Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet.

This Air Mover has three (3) power settings
•
controlled at the side of the machine. Turn the
power knob on the side of the Air Mover to
the desired speed.
1 = 780 RPM. 2 = 1000 RPM. 3 = 1100 RPM.

To turn the Air Mover off, turn the power
knob to the off position.
Never pull on the cord to disconnect or turn
•
off the motor.
3.0 Storing the Air Mover
Wind the cord around the carrying handle.
•
Store in the upright position in a dry area.
•
Check and clean after each operation. Remove soil and chemical buildup. Use
•
vacuum and soft brush to remove soils from motor vents and fan blades.
Wipe the outside chassis with a mild cleaner. Never wash the outside of the Air
•
Mover with flowing water. Make sure that the air intakes are not blocked.
Check switches for proper operation. Call a trained electrician to repair or replace
•
damaged cords and plugs.
Report problems and repair promptly.

equipment.
1.1 Air Mover will not run
This Air Mover operates on a 15 amp nominal 115V, 60 Hz, A.C. power circuit. The,
amp, hertz and voltage ratings are listed on the motor spec label found on each Air
Mover. Using voltages above or below those indicated on the spec label will damage the
motor. Always check your local voltage requirements.
1.3 Extension Cords are Not Recommended
The Air Mover is built with a 25 foot safety cord. Use of any extension cords is NEVER
RECOMMENDED.
1.2 Grounding Instruction
This Air Mover must be grounded while in
use to protect the operator from electric shock.
This machine is built with a 3-wire cord and a
3-prong grounding-type plug (Figure 1) to fit a
properly grounded receptacle.
Before using this machine, make sure a properly
grounded, 3-hole electrical outlet is available.
If not available, as in some older facilities, use
an adapter for connecting a 3-prong plug to
a 2-prong receptacle (Figure 2) to ground the
outlet chassis.
IMPORTANT!! This adaptor may not be
used in Canada.
IMPORTANT!! Never cut off the grounding
prong for use in a 2-prong outlet. By doing
so, you have cut off your protection from
electrical shock.
Never assume that all 3-hole outlets are properly
grounded. Check before use.
Never assume that an adaptor connection (as in
Figure 2) is properly grounded. Check the outlet
with a ground fault interrupter device which
quickly indicated if a ground is connected.
Correct a faulty grounding before proceeding.
