through the connector. Insert the loose end of the
guy wire through the end of the turnbuckle and
push back through the No. 4 Gripple connector to
close the loop.

4. Place a level against the downtube and tighten all
(4) turnbuckles by hand in a crisscross pattern until
the guy wires are tight and the fan is level.
NOTE: When leveling the fan, place the level against
the downtube in-between two neighboring guy wires
to simplify the leveling process. The level should also
be moved around the circumference of the downtube
periodically to ensure that the fan is level in all
directions.
5. Cut or organize excess guy wires to ensure that
they do not interfere with fan rotation.
NOTE: If necessary, the guy wires can be loosened by
inserting the long end of a 1/16 in. allen wrench into
either of the pin holes on the No. 4 Gripple connector
and pulling the cable in the opposite direction of the
arrow marked on the Gripple connector.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate fans without the airfoil
blades. Failure to comply with this warning will result
in voiding of the product warranty and may result in
permanent damage to the VFD and motor.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend
motor struts, airfoil blades, or airfoil retaining links
when installing the airfoil blades, balancing the blades,
or cleaning the fan. Damage to these components may
result in unsafe operation of the fan, which can lead
to property damage, personal injury or death. Contact
your local representative or the factory if replacement
parts are needed.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not insert
foreign objects in between rotating fan blades.
