Date 030515Maintenance InformationGuy Wire Check (if applicable): Checking a MacroAir fan’s Guy wires (if applicable) for tensionand inspecting for frayed sections could mitigate a problem before it occurs. Fan owners shouldconfirm that the Guy wires are not wrapped around any sharp edges. MacroAir recommendsattaching Guy wires to the building with eye bolts or eye lags. If they are not already installed witheye bolts or lags, we urge fan owners to install these in order to help keep the Guy wires fromfraying. If Guy wires are installed with turnbuckles, jam nuts should periodically be checked toensure tightness. If they are loose, the Guy wire cables may need to be re-tensioned.Airfoil Cleaning: Depending on the type of commercial application the MacroAir fan is in, therecan be quite a bit of dust or other particulates (including grease!) that cling to the fan’s airfoils.While this may not affect fan performance, we recommend fan owners keep airfoils clean byhaving a maintenance person or skilled trade professional – who has experience using a lift –wipe the fan airfoils with a rag or sponge using hot water or regular cleaning solutions. Please donot use chlorine or any chemicals containing chlorine.Safety Cable Check: Each MacroAir fan comes with a safety cable. Depending on the fan model,the safety cable either wraps around the building structure and the fan frame, or comes outof the top of the fan and wraps around the building structure. The safety cable is an importantpart of the safety system and acts as a last resort should an earthquake, collision, or similarcatastrophic event occur. As such, it’s vital for fan owners to ensure that it is intact and properlysecured.Reverse Operation: The beauty of MacroAir HVLS fans is that they are built to run in forwardand reverse mode, however changing the direction of your fan can put initial stress on the fan ifit has not been properly checked. It is a good idea to make sure Guy wires, safety cables and allbolts and nuts are tight. Cleaning the fan before switching directions will prevent dust and otherparticles from falling off the fan airfoils that are now turning in the opposite direction.TOTAL FACILITY SOLUTIONS(800) 274-8730www.liftandaircompressor.com
