INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTION
BREEZEMASTER MODEL BDR/ADR W/WSS & WSSC
This set of instructions applies to both the direct driven and belt driven fans with WSS slant housing and the WSSC
slant collar. CAUTION: Model ADR36G8 should not be operated with a timer.
WARNING! Do not use fans in hazardous environments where the fan’s electrical system could provide ignition to combustible or flammable
materials, unless built specifically for that environment. This unit has rotating parts and safety precautions should be exercised during installation, operation and maintenance.
Remove from shipping crate prior to installation. All debris and shipping material must be removed to prevent obstruction of
air flow to and from the orifice. The orifice opening on both sides must be kept clear of obstructions. Failure to keep the orifice
opening clear could cause undue stresses on the propeller blades, damage to the fan, and an unsafe operating condition.

INSTALLATION
1.
CAUTION! This unit has rotating parts and safety precautions should be exercised during installation, operation and maintenance.
2.
WARNING! Do not use fans in hazardous environments where the fan's electrical system could provide
ignition to combustible or flammable materials, unless
the unit is specifically built for that hazardous environment.
3.
CAUTION! Guards must be installed when fan is
within reach of personnel or within eight (8) feet (2.5 m)
of working level or when deemed advisable for safety.
tween the top flanges and the wall. Fan wall housing
can also be attached to outside of framed opening utilizing the mounting flanges.
3.
Mount automatic damper to inside of fan wall housing
by inserting bottom edge of damper behind the bottom
damper angle with the top edge of damper in front of
the top damper angle and then securing with the snap
clips on the top damper angle. An optional inside
guard can be mounted with the damper in the same
manner.
4.
A distance of at least one and one-half times the diameter of the fan should be allowed between the fan inlet
or discharge opening and any adjacent wall or large
obstruction.
5.
CAUTION! Before proceeding, make sure electrical
service to fan is locked in "OFF" position.
6.
All wiring should be in accordance with local ordinances and the National Electric code.
7.
Before starting, check all fasteners for tightness particularly in the propeller hub. Turn the propeller by hand
to make sure it rotates freely and that the blades do not
strike the orifice.
8.
WARNING! Check voltage being supplied to the fan to
see that it corresponds with the motor nameplate voltage; high or low voltage can seriously damage the motor. On multi-voltage motors, check motor terminal
Installation With Slant Wall Housing
1.
2.
To install a fan mounted in a slant wall housing when
the wall thickness is 4" or less, provide a rectangular
opening in the wall equal to A and B dimension shown
in fan chart. It is preferable to frame the opening with 2
x 4 material, or a metal frame in metal buildings or
greenhouses. When the wall thickness is more than
4", the height of the rectangular opening should be 1
inch less than the height shown in fan chart and the
bottom of the opening should be slanted approximately 15° as shown in the inset.
Slide the fan wall housing through the inside of the
framed opening in the wall. Fasten with bolts or
screws provided by the installer. Position box so the
top panel slants down from the horizontal. Caulk bePage 3
connections to make sure motor is internally connected for voltage being supplied. Motor wiring diagram is located on the side of the motor or in the motor
wiring compartment. Extra care should be taken when
wiring two speed motors since improper connections
will damage motor and void motor warranty. Leave
enough slack in wiring to allow for motor movement
when adjusting belt tension.
9.
Apply power momentarily and compare the rotation of
the impeller with the directional arrow on fan. In the
case of three phase motors, the direction can be
changed by interchanging any two of the three motor
leads. In the case of the single phase motors, the reversing instructions will appear on the wiring diagram
in the motor wiring compartment.
10. When supply type fans are used with motorized wall
dampers, it is necessary that a time delay switch be
used between the power source and the fan motor
which will allow the damper to fully open before the fan
is activated.
BELT TIGHTENER MAINTENANCE
BELT DRIVE MODELS ONLY
CAUTION: Before proceeding, make sure electrical
service to fan is locked in “OFF” position.
1.
If the belt stretches enough that the belt tightener does
not keep the belt tight, the belt tightener can be adjusted. Start by loosening the 3/8 inch bolt holding the
belt tightener to the belt tightener base.
2.
Place a wrench on the hex nut in the belt tightener body
as shown in Figure 1 and a wrench on the belt tightener
mounting fastener.
3.
Using the wrench on the belt tightener body, apply
pressure in the appropriate direction (see Figure 1) until the belt is properly tensioned. Note: The belt tightener body has marks on it as shown in Figure 2
representing degrees. The proper alignment after
tightening the mounting bolt is shown in Figure 3.
4.
With the belt tightener securely held in position, tighten
the belt tightener mounting bolt.
5.
If the belt tightener cannot be adjusted without hitting
another part of the fan, tighten the belt by adjusting the
fans motor base toward the top of the fan with the belt
tightener mounting bolt loose (see item 1). Continue
the adjustment at Item 2.

MAINTENANCE
1.
Motors supplied by Acme have prelubricated bearings.
Consult information printed on motor for lubrication instructions.
PROCEDURE FOR TIGHTENING SET SCREWS IN
BEARINGS AND HUBS
One Set Screw Application
2.
3.
Propeller shaft bearings are prelubricated, sealed and
require no service.
Check belt tension after first 48 hours of operation and
annually thereafter. Belt should depress its width when
pressed firmly inward at midway point between the pulleys. Too much tension will damage bearings; belt
should be tight enough to prevent slippage. When replacing worn belt, replace motor pulley if “shoulder” is
worn in groove.
Using a torque wrench, tighten the set screw to the torque
recommended in Table 1.
Two Set Screw Application
1. Using a torque wrench, tighten one set screw to half of
the torque recommended in Table 1.
2.
Tighten the second set screw to the full recommended
torque.
3.
Tighten the first set screw to the full recommended
torque.
WARNING! Do not operate at higher speeds than
rated. Do not replace motor pulley with a larger diameter pulley. Do not replace the fan pulley with one
smaller in diameter. The pulley ratios are set so that the
motor will not be overloaded.
4.
5.
If motor requires replacement, one comparable to the
original with the same service factor and enclosure
must be used.
If propeller shaft bearings need replacement, replace
with bearings comparable to original equipment. The
new bearing must be installed with neoprene rings. Position propeller for correct location with orifice, position
bearings in die formed recess and tighten set screws.
Replace die formed bearing cap and tighten four bolts.
NOTE: If locking collar type bearing is used, collar
must first be positioned against inner race on bearing
nearest propeller and turned in direction of propeller
rotation with drift pin and hammer until it locks. Locking
collars must be on inboard (facing) sides of the bearings. Secure bearing to shaft with set screw. Lock and
secure other bearing to shaft in same manner.

Table 1. Recommended Tightening Torque
for Set Screws
Before initial operation of the fan, tighten set screws
according to the procedure outlined below.
After 500 operating hours or three months, whichever
comes first, tighten set screws to the full recommended
torque.
At least once a year, tighten set screws to the full recommended torque.

VARIABLE FREQUENCY
DRIVES AND MOTORS
There are occasions when a Variable Frequency Drive
(VFD) will cause poor motor performance and possible
damage. To avoid these problems, the Company
recommends the following:
1.
Select compatible motor and VFD inverter; if possible,
the motor and the inverter should be from the same
manufacturer or at least the inverter selected should
be recommended by the motor manufacturer.
2.
A motor shaft grounding system should be used to prevent motor bearing damage from eddy currents.
NOTE:
The Company will not honor motor warranty
claims if the customer fails to follow these
recommendations.
