2. Set the motor pedestal rail onto the structural anglebrackets that run front to back along the cell (see fig-ure 1).
3. Line the four pedestal bolt holes up with the bolt holeson the angle bracket.a. Insert ½” bolts into the holes, make sure to use a
standard washer on the bolt side and a standardwasher and lock washer on the nut side. Handtighten the bolts for now (see figure 1).
4. Set the motor on the pedestal (see figure 1). Useproper lifting techniques, crane or motor/rail system ifpossible for lifting the motor into position. Once themotor is placed on the pedestal align the bolt holes onthe motor to the bolt holes on the pedestal makingsure that the motor shaft is pointing towards the faninlet wall.a. Next, insert 3/8" bolts into the holes from the
underside, make sure to use a standard washer onthe bolt side, only a locknut is required on the motorside (see figure 1).
b. Square the motor and tighten the bolts to 40 ft-lbs.
5. Locate the fan wheel and cone and associated hardwareand move to the inlet side of the fan wall (see figure 2).a. Install trantorque bushing into hub on fan wheel.
Make sure that the nut pattern on the bushing isfacing towards the fan wheel blades.
b. Place the fan wheel onto the motor shaft throughthe trantorque bushing. Slide the wheel onto theshaft until the trantorque is fully engaged on themotor shaft. Be careful not to push the fan wheel toofar onto the shaft as interference with the pedestalmay occur. Hand tighten the bushing for now (seefigure 2).
DANGER! Risk of Injury

6. Temporarily attach the cone to the cell inlet using thescrews and washers provided (see figure 2). Use aminimum of four screws for this step.a. Refer to the fan wheel overlap drawings provided to
determine where to set the wheel with respect to thecone (see figures 4-7).
b. Adjust the amount of overlap by moving the motorpedestal forward or backward to line up the cone withthe wheel (wheel/cone overlap is designed to insertthe cone 50% of the distance of the rolled shroud lipon the wheel). Once you have the wheel approxi-mately located tighten the ½” pedestal bolts to 90ft-lbs.
c. Next make sure that the wheel is located properlyand tighten the trantorque bushing. Once the wheeldepth alignment is verified tighten the trantorquebushing to 70ft-lbs. Please note that a bar or someother device may need to be inserted into the bladeof the fan wheel to hold the wheel while applying thetorque. Please refer to Table 1 for shaft size andassociated socket size to be used to tighten thetrantorque.
7. Center the cone in the wheel shroud. The attachedfigures 4-7 show the proper wheel/cone alignment.a. The cone alignment can be a tedious process as
there are no tools that effectively work to align thecone. It is a hands on process to align the cone.Huntair cones have a running clearance of about1/16" (see figure 3).
b. Start by loosening the four screws that were used tohold the cone for the depth alignment. Hold the conewith one hand and with the other use a drill to attacha screw to hold the cone in place. Feel between thewheel inlet shroud and the cone and set the gap toapproximately 1/16" and tighten the screw in thatlocation (top of the cone is usually the best place tostart). At this point you should be able to move thecone about that screw location, adjust the cone onthe left or right until there is approximately a 1/16"gap.
c. Spin the wheel by hand at this point to check for anyclearance issues. If the wheel spins clear tightenthe remaining screws on the cone. Check that thewheel spins clear after tightening each screw.
8. Attach the inlet airflow straightener using the formedangle brackets (see figure 2).a.Start by loosely installing (don’t tighten screws all
the way) the bottom angle bracket. Set theairflow grid on the angle bracket. Align the side ofthe grid with the end of the bracket.
b.Install either vertical angle bracket loosely andcheck fit up.
c.Install the two remaining brackets and tighten (seefigure 2).
9. Wire the motor per the electrical schematic provided.Make sure to wire the motors to NEC standards.
10. Bump test the motors and check for proper rotation.

Long Term Storage (Over 1 Month)
All fan and motor bearings equipped with greasee fittingsmust be relubricated as soon as they arrive from thefactory. To prevent corrosion, all bearings should receivegrease and be rotated the first of every month. Turn thewheel by hand while greasing the bearings. A clean 1/16"bead of grease must appear on each side of each bearing.Refer to specific bearing lubricating instructions on the fan.
Monthly
1. Fan and motor bearings equipped with grease fittingsare to be lubricated. Bearings without fittings arepermanently sealed and do not require lubrication.
For normal operation, use Shell Alvania No. 2, MoblithSHC 100 (Mobile), Rykon Prem #2 (Rykon), PremiumRB2 (Texaco), or an equivalent grease. Caution shouldbe used in greasing bearings with a high pressure gunwhich can blow bearing seals and overfill the bearingwith grease. This condition can result in excessivechurning and overheating. For normal operating condi-tions it is a standard practice to fill only 30% of thebearing void with grease. Do not over-lubricate.
For temperatures below 0°F, it is suggested that a lowtemperature lithium grease similar to Beacon #325(humble oil) be used.
Every Six Months
1. Check motor bearings for possible binding, noise oroverheating.
2. Check supply fan and exhaust fan wheels for dirt andgrease accumulation. Clean as necessary. Do not usecaustic cleaning solutions.
Yearly
1. Lightly lubricate damper bushings and associatedlinkage.
2. Lightly lubricate control valve linkage.
Every Two Years
1. Examine unit housing for signs of corrosion. Clean,replace or touch up with paint, as necessary.
Every Four Years
1. Lubricate motor bearings, using CHEVRON BRB #2,ALVANIA #2 (Shell Oil Co.), RYDEKN #2 (Standard OilCo.), or an equivalent grease.
2. For ambient temperatures below 0°F use BEACON#325 low temperature grease or equal
3. Lubricate while motor is warm and at standstill. Re-move and clean plugs, insert grease fitting into upperhole adding a small amount of clean grease with a lowpressure grease gun. Run motor for five (5) minutesbefore replacing plugs.
CAUTION: Excessive amount of grease will overheatthe bearings.
