Woodstock Shop Fox W1690 Instruction Manual - Hanging Mount

-11-

To make the unit operate at the optimum height

of 7 feet from the floor, you can install the air

filter unit in your shop by hanging it by chain,

cable, or steel strapping.

To install the air cleaner for hanging mount

operation, do these steps:

1. Install four chain, cable, or steel strapping

lines to your ceiling from capable ceiling

studs or supports. When the lines hang down

freely they should be 15

1

⁄

4

" from left-to-right

and 24

1

⁄

2

" from front-to-rear. 

2. Remove the plug screw. Retain the screws

because if you remove the eye bolts for the

flush mounting configuration, you must

reinstall these screws to seal the air cleaner

unit. See Figure 7.

3. Thread the eye bolt completely into the air

filter unit until the jam-nut shoulder contacts

the air filter unit. See Figure 8.

4. Tighten the eye bolt until it is snug against

the air filter unit.

5. Repeat  Steps 2 through  5 on the three

remaining eye bolts.

6. Raise and secure the air cleaner eye bolts to

the four hanging lines.

Hanging Mount

Get lifting assistance

before  installation. At 55

pounds, the Model W1690

air cleaner is a heavy load. 

ONLY hang the air cleaner to load bearing

ceiling supports or joists that can hold at least

100 lbs. DO NOT mount the unit to sheet rock,

pressboard, paneling, or honeycomb ceiling

panels with expansion-type fasteners like the

ones shown in Figure 10. The fasteners can tear

out and the air cleaner can fall. Ignoring this

warning can result in severe injury or death.
