2. Installing the lower black tube (with internal spring)

Position the lower black tube over its housing on the base. To insert it, remove the lower fixing screw using an 18 mm spanner, insert the tube into the base, then refit and tighten the screw. Fig. 2

3. Fitting the spring and grey tube

Insert the spring into the interior of the black tube (if not already fitted). Then slide the grey tube inside the black tube until it is correctly seated. Fig. 2

4. Attaching the tube with control panel

Attach the tube incorporating the control panel to the grey tube without fully tightening the fixing, so that the height can be adjusted comfortably. Fig. 2

5. Height adjustment rear wing nut)

Adjust to the desired height and tighten the rear wing nut until the assembly is firmly secured.

6. Final fixing of the control panel

Secure the control panel to the grey tube using the fixing screw (usually pre-fitted). Tighten without forcing the thread.

7. Fitting the water tank

Place the tank onto the base with the opening facing towards the rear.

8. Installing the pump in the water tank

Place the water pump inside the tank and fix it to the bottom using its suction cups. Feed the outlet tube through the opening in the tank to the outside. Fig. 3

9. Accessing the panel tube and connecting to the pump

10. Electrical connection of the pump to the control panel

Connect the pump cable to the corresponding connector on the control panel (2-pin connector). Ensure the connector is fully inserted.

11. Fitting the rear grille to the motor head

On the motor head, remove the 4 screws with washers. Position the rear section of the protective grille, aligning the smaller inner circle with the screw holes.

Refit the screws with their washers and tighten. Fig. 4

Remove the fixing screw supplied with the fan blades. Insert the blades onto the shaft and retighten the blade screw until firmly secured. Fig. 4

13. Inserting the motor head into the frame

Insert the motor head fully into the misting fans frame/bracket. Fig. 5

15. Tilt adjustment (side hexagonal nut)

Slightly loosen the side hexagonal nut until the motor head can be moved to the desired position. Once adjusted, retighten to lock it in place.

16. Fitting the front grille (correct orientation)

Remove the 4 screws with washers from the front panel. Fit the front grille so that the logo faces outwards. Fig. 6

17. Fitting the front section and seals

Fit the front section and check that the seals are correctly seated and free from pinching, to prevent vibrations during operation. Fig. 6

18. Feeding the tube and cable assembly through the control panel

Insert the tube included through the control panel opening:

• a 4-pin cable, and

• a water tube (through which water will flow towards the misting system).

19. Connecting the 4-pin cable

Connect the 4-pin cable to its corresponding connector on the control panel, ensuring correct connector orientation. Fig. 7

20. Connecting the water tube to the control panel valve

Connect the water tube to the valve located inside the control panel. Ensure a complete, secure connection to prevent leaks. Fig. 7

21. Connecting the motor head cable (5-pin)

Connect the cable from the motor head (5-pin) to its corresponding connector on the control panel. Fig. 7

22. Closing the control panel

Refit the rear cover of the control panel and screw it into place. Check that no cables or tubes are pinched.

23. Water recirculation tube (long plastic tube)

Connect one end of the long tube to the blue fitting located at the bottom of the misting fan. Feed the other end through the rear opening of the tank. This connection enables water recirculation.

ENGLISH
