WARNING:

To reduce the risk of injury, do not attempt to use this

product until you have read thoroughly and understand

completely this operator’s manual and the operator’s

manual for the RYOBI garage door opener. Ensure

compatibility and fit before using this accessory. Do

not use this accessory if a part is damaged or missing.



Do not allow children to operate this product.

It is not

a toy.



Do not operate fans in explosive atmospheres, such as in

the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Fans

can create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.



Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all

times. Proper footing and balance enable better control

of the fan in unexpected situations.



Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.

Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves

away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewelry, or long

hair can be caught in moving parts.



Do not use fan if the indoor keypad or smartphone app

does not turn it on or off. A fan that cannot be con-

trolled with the keypad or app is dangerous and must

be repaired.



Deactivate accessory ports and ensure the fan blades

have stopped moving before making adjustments, clean-

ing, or changing accessories. Such preventive safety

measures reduce the risk of starting the fan accidentally.



Keep the fan and its handle dry, clean and free from oil

and grease. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning.

Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based

products, or any strong solvents to clean your fan. Fol-

lowing this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and

deterioration of the enclosure plastic.



Clean only with dry cloth.



Do not operate near any heat sources such as radiators,

heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including

amplifiers) that produce heat.



For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust

hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.



Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use

them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you loan

someone this tool, loan them these instructions also to

prevent misuse of the product and possible injury.
