Fan Head Assembly:

You are now ready to assemble the fan head.
STEP 1: Position the rear grill over the motor shaft, making certain the

notches at the top and bottom of the rear grill fit over the prongs

on the motor housing.  Please make sure the rear grill fits securely

against the motor housing.

STEP 2: Secure the rear grill in its place using the rear grill mounting nut.

Turn this nut clockwise and tighten firmly.

STEP 3: Slide the fan blade, with the hollowed interior of the blade facing

toward the rear grill, firmly onto the motor shaft.  The top of the

motor shaft should lie even with the center of the fan blade.  

STEP 4: Now use the securing screw to lock the blade into place.  Tighten

the screw into the side hole of the fan blade, against the motor

shaft, until both the blade and screw are secure.

STEP 5: Center the front grill by aligning the Holmes logo on the logo plate

so it is horizontal and parallel with the floor.  Then, holding the

front grill against the rear grill, push the black grill ring into place

at the top and bottom of the fan.  (Push directly on the black grill

ring, not on the grills themselves.) Finish securing the grill ring in

the same manner until both grills are joined underneath the black

ring. 

Final Assembly:

First, slide the inner pole extension up from the outer pole.  Insert the pole

locking knob into the hole on the outer pole, to securely hold this position.

Next, place the fan head assembly into this extension pole, inserting the

head is securely locked into place.  Finally, add the tilt adjustment knob to

the hole of the fan head's neck. Tighten when fan head is in your desired

position.
