• DO NOT operate the portable fan with a damaged cord or plug. Discard the fan or return to an authorized service facility for examination and/or repair.
• DO NOT run cord under carpeting. Do not cover the cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings.
• DO NOT route the cord under furniture or appliances. Arrange it away from the traffic area and where it will not be tripped. Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before servicing.
• Regular Check: Have your wall fan checked regularly for any sign of malfunction! Stop using it, check if the plug, cord, or appliance is faulty. Watch out for excessive noise, unpleasant odor, or abnormal heat.

Safety Precautions

• This appliance is not intended for use by people (including children) with reduced physical, sensor,y or mental capabilities, or a lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
  concerning the use of the appliance by the person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
• Have any repairs carried out solely by a qualified electrician. Never try to repair the appliance yourself.
• The duct fan shall not be intended to be mounted in a duct to move heated air.
• Close supervision is necessary when children are using the appliance. They should be supervised to ensure they do not play with it. Children shall not do cleaning and user maintenance unless they are acceptableably elderly and supervised.

Important Safety Information

Work area safety

• Keep the work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Tools create sparks that may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

• Tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plugin anyway. Do not use any adapter plugs with grounded tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
• Do not expose tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering the tool will increase the risk of an electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling, or unplugging the power tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Using a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a tool. Do not use a tool while you are retired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating tools may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as a dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, a hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is off before connecting to a power source, picking up, or carrying the tool. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch invites accidents.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• Only use safety equipment that an appropriate standards agency has approved. Unapproved safety equipment may not provide adequate protection. Eye protection must be ANSI-approved, and breathing protection must be NIOSH-approved for the specific hazards in the work area.

Portable Ventilator use and care

• Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. If you can’t control the fan by its switch, that could be dangerous.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source before adjusting or storing tools. This preventive safety measure reduces the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
• Store idle tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the tool or these instructions to operate the tool. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool repaired before use. Poorly maintained tools may cause accidents.

Ventilator Safety Warnings

• Connect to the GFCI outlet only.
• Keep children away from the ventilator. They could insert their small fingers through the grill, which is dangerous.
• Do not use near flammable fumes or dust. The ventilator has internal arcing parts that will ignite flammable fumes/dust.
• Do not use without the guard in place.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this ventilator with any solid-state speed control device.
• Do not reposition the fan while in use.
• Unplug after use.
• Inspect before use; do not use if parts are loose or damaged.
• Keep the inlet and outlet clear during use.
• Do not allow paper, drapes or other types of loose material to get into the inlet end of the unit. They might restrict air movement through the ventilator, which will overheat the motor and cause a fire.
• Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool. These carry important safety information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
• Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare to begin work before tuning on the tool.
• This product is not a toy. Keep it out of reach of children.

Caution

• People with pacemakers should consult their physician (s) before use. Electromagnetic fields close to a heart pacemaker could cause pacemaker interference or failure.

In addition, people with pacemakers should:

1. Avoid operating alone.
2. Do not use with the power switch locked on.
3. Properly maintain and inspect to avoid electrical shock.
4. Properly ground the power cord. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) should also be implemented. It prevents sustained electrical shock.

The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. The operator must understand that common sense and caution are factors that cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.
