IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons, including the following:

Read all instructions before using this Fan.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY, ALWAYS FOLLOW THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS:

• DO NOT use this fan to ventilate areas where flammable liquids or vapors are used, stored, or are present, including paints, gasoline, varnishes, floor refinishing products, or solvents. ALWAYS read and follow all warnings and instructions on the containers for these products!
• ALWAYS be sure the plug fits tightly into the outlet. When plugs fit loosely into outlets, they may slip partially out of the outlet and create a poor connection. This may cause outlets to overheat and create a potential fire hazard. Outlets in this condition should be replaced by a qualified electrician.
• ALWAYS unplug the power cord when servicing, cleaning, or moving the Fan. DO NOT use the ON/OFF switch as the sole means of disconnecting power. NEVER leave children unattended when the Fan is on or plugged in. ALWAYS turn off and unplug the Fan when not in use.
• BE CERTAIN that the power source for the Fan is 120V AC. DO NOT plug the Fan into 240V or other power source.
• The Blue Plug™ on your Lasko fan is a safety feature. It contains a non-replaceable safety device (fuse) that should not be removed or tampered with. To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, DO NOT attempt to remove, replace, repair, or tamper with the originally supplied plug. If the Fan has stopped functioning, it may be due to the safety device incorporated in this plug.
• THIS FAN HAS A POLARIZED PLUG (one blade is wider than the other). This plug is designed to fit into the outlet only one way. Match the wide blade to the wide slot in the outlet and FULLY INSERT. DO NOT attempt to bypass or defeat this safety feature. If the plug does not fit in the outlet, consult a qualified electrician. The outlet may need to be replaced.

CAUTION

• AVOID the use of extension cords, power strips, power taps, outlet-style air fresheners, or other cord-connected devices, as these devices may overheat and cause a fire hazard.
• DO NOT route power cord under rugs, carpets, runners, or furniture. This may damage the cord or cause it to overheat, creating a fire hazard.
• ALWAYS place the Fan on a stable, flat, level surface while in operation to prevent the Fan from overturning.
• NEVER insert or allow fingers or objects to enter grill openings while Fan is in operation, or injury and/or damage to the Fan may occur.
• DO NOT block, cover, or obstruct air flow to or from the fan while in operation.
• DO NOT use this Fan outdoors or near water or wet locations such as a bathtub, pool, or hot tub. Use of this Fan in a wet location may create a shock hazard.
• DO NOT run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings. Do not route cord under furniture or appliances. Arrange cord away from traffic areas and where it will not be tripped over.
• NEVER use a single extension cord to operate more than one Fan or other electrical device.
• DO NOT use this Fan if it has been damaged or is not functioning properly.
• Remote controls for other appliances or electronic equipment can sometimes interfere with the operation of this Fan. If this occurs, move the Fan to another location.
• Keep Fan remote control unit away from chairs and your bed where it may be sat or laid upon and inadvertently turn on the Fan.
• THIS FAN DOES NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF NEC ARTICLE 547-7 (2008). This Fan is not suitable for use in agricultural facilities including areas where livestock, poultry, or other animals are confined. Please refer to National Electric Code (NEC) Article 547-7 (2008), or applicable state or local codes or standards relating to electrical requirements for agricultural buildings.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

ASSEMBLY

For ease of assembly, lay the Fan down so that the front grill and control panel are facing up.

1. Locate the Power Supply Cord at the bottom of the Fan. Place the Power Supply Cord through the Cord Channel of the Column Support. (See Figure 1)
2. Attach the Column Support Assembly to the Motor Base with four 1/2" Long MS Screws. Make certain to align the Key on the Support Column Assembly with the Locating Notch on the Motor Base. (See Figure 1)
3. Assemble the Bases by interlocking the Bosses on Support Base A into the Boss Holes on Support Base B. Thread the Power Supply Cord through the large hole in the center of the Support Base Assembly. (See Figure 2)
4. Secure the four #8 x 1/2" Screws into the four holes in the bottom of the base. (See Figure 3)
5. Align the Support Base Assembly with the Column Support Assembly, noting that the cord channel on the bottom of the support base should be towards the back of the Fan. Assemble the Support Base Assembly to the Column Support Assembly with four 1/2" Long MS Screws. Gently pull any excess length of the Power Supply Cord and place it in the Wire Locating Trough. (See Figure 4)
