Setup and Installation
Charging the Fan
Before first use, fully charge the fan. Connect the provided USB-C cable to the fan's charging port and the other end to a compatible USB power adapter (not included). The LED indicator will show the charging status. A full charge provides up to 30 hours of runtime depending on the speed setting.
Attaching the Fan
The fan offers two primary attachment methods for versatile use:
- Magnetic Attachment: The fan is equipped with strong N52 magnets. Simply place the fan on any suitable metal surface, such as a golf cart frame, metal workbench, or gym equipment. Ensure a secure attachment before operation.
- Strap Attachment: For non-metallic surfaces or added security, use the included Velcro strap. Thread the strap through the designated slots on the fan base and secure it around a pole, bar, or handle.
