Upblast Centrifugal Roof Exhaust2
Receiving
Upon receiving the product, check to ensure all
items are accounted for by referencing the delivery
receipt or packing list. Inspect each crate or carton
for shipping damage before accepting delivery. Alert
the carrier of any damage detected. The customer will
make notation of damage (or shortage of items) on
the delivery receipt and all copies of the bill of lading
which is countersigned by the delivering carrier. If
damaged, immediately contact your representative. Any
physical damage to the unit after acceptance is not the
responsibility of the manufacturer.
Unpacking
Verify that all required parts and the correct quantity
of each item have been received. If any items are
missing, report shortages to your local representative to
arrange for obtaining missing parts. Sometimes it is not
possible that all items for the unit be shipped together
due to availability of transportation and truck space.
Confirmation of shipment(s) must be limited to only
items on the bill of lading.
Handling
Direct and Belt Drive Units
Up through size 240, if provided, use the lifting points
See Figure 1. For sizes 300 and larger, or if the lifting
points are not provided, use the horizontal supports.
IMPORTANT
Do not lift by the fan hood. Avoid lifting fans in a way
that will bend or distort fan parts. Never pass slings or
timbers through the venturi of fan. Fans with special
coatings or paints must be protected in handling to
prevent damage.

When lifting a unit onto the roof, use either the four
lifting points on the drive frame or the two lifting points
on the bearing plate if present, see Figure2 for lifting
points. Access to the drive frame is accomplished by
push-pin toolless fasteners or removing the screws
pointed out in Figure 3. The cover can then be removed
and placed on a flat surface in an area protected from
strong winds.
When the Direct and/or Belt Drive unit is on the roof,
move fan to desired location using lifting points and
fasten securely through mounting holes in base. Shims
may be necessary depending upon roofing material
thickness.
The motor amperage and voltage ratings must be
checked for compatibility to supply voltage prior to
final electrical connection. For Direct and/or Belt Drive
installations, the electrical supply should be routed
through the conduit chase located between the curb
cap and the bottom of the motor compartment or
through the breather tube. Wiring must conform to local
and national codes.
Storage
Fans are protected against damage during shipment.
If the unit cannot be installed and operated immediately,
precautions need to be taken to prevent deterioration of
the unit during storage. The user assumes responsibility
of the fan and accessories while in storage. The
manufacturer will not be responsible for damage
during storage. These suggestions are provided solely
as a convenience to the user.
