Motor Specifications and Electrical Requirements

This Air Mover is provided with a 3-speed, 115 volt, 60Hz induction motor with a grounding conductor. It is thermally protected and will automatically shut down if over-heated. Once it cools, the motor will restart automatically if not unplugged.

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.

This Air Mover is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Introduction

Air Movers are designed to move large volumes of air. They are used to dry wet carpets, floors and furniture. They may also be used for ventilation.

Air Mover Interconnection

RIDGID Air Movers (AM22870) can be interconnected in series using the AM22870 convenience outlets. If utilizing the series interconnection feature, only use Air Movers that total less than the recommended 7.9 Amp maximum convenience outlet rating. The 8 Amp onboard circuit breaker will allow up to two (2) additional RIDGID Air Movers to run on the first Air Mover at the same time.

NOTE: This Air Mover AM22870 is equipped with convenience outlets with an on-board 8 Amp circuit breaker. If the convenience outlet overloads, the circuit breaker will trip. If the circuit breaker does trip, turn the switch to the off position and unplug all units then press the circuit breaker reset button. Plug the units back into the power source. The on-board convenience outlets on the Air Mover will be actively powered when the Air Mover is plugged in and the circuit breaker is properly reset.

Storage

When stacking units, position the four foot bumpers on the recessed stacking pads.

The units conveniently "stack" for storage, as shown.

CAUTION: Do not operate Air Mover when stacked on top of each other. Do not stack more than 2 high.
