Plug your Suncourt corded in-line duct fan into the power outlet located at the bottom of the controller.
Plug the Suncourt Variable Speed Fan Controller into a standard 120-Volt electrical wall outlet.

5. Operating Instructions

To operate the fan controller:

With the fan plugged into the controller and the controller plugged into a wall outlet, rotate the dial clockwise from the "OFF" position.
Continue rotating the dial clockwise to increase the fan speed. The fan speed will increase as you turn the dial towards the "HIGH" setting (implied by "LOW" marking).
Rotate the dial counter-clockwise to decrease the fan speed.
To turn the fan off, rotate the dial fully counter-clockwise until it clicks into the "OFF" position.

Note: Some fans may produce a buzzing sound at lower speeds. This is a characteristic of some motor types when used with solid-state speed controllers and does not necessarily indicate a malfunction of the controller.

6. Maintenance

Ensure the controller is unplugged from the wall outlet before cleaning.
Wipe the exterior of the controller with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Do not allow liquids to enter the controller's housing or outlet.
