What to do if my BIG ASS FANS POWERFOIL 8 will not start?
First, check that all wires are securely connected. Then, make sure the power supply is adequate and working. If your fan still won't start after these checks, further assistance is needed.
Why is my BIG ASS FANS POWERFOIL 8 Fan wobbling during operation?
Make sure the structure it's mounted on is strong enough and that the fan isn't getting hit by outside air. If guy wires were used, check they're properly set up. If not, further assistance is needed.
How to stop popping noise coming from my BIG ASS FANS POWERFOIL 8 Fan?
Turn off the fan and tighten the airfoil fasteners to 29 ft·lb (39.3 N·m). If the popping continues, check if the airfoils are touching. If they are, further assistance is needed.
How to fix radio frequency noise (RF) from BIG ASS FANS POWERFOIL 8 Fan VFD?
Make sure you're not running your controller and sensitive equipment on the same power line. Also, ensure the motor, controller, and the connection from the controller to the utility are properly grounded. If the noise persists, further assistance is needed.
Why is my BIG ASS FANS Fan turning in the wrong direction?
For the fan to work correctly, it should spin counterclockwise when you look at it from the floor. If it's not, just press the F/R button on the controller.
What to do if my BIG ASS FANS Fan motor makes noise when fan speed is increased?
Check that the motor currents are within the allowed limits. Refer to the technical specifications in this manual to confirm motor currents for your fan size.
