Installation InstructionsChapter 2
Step 3
Installing the one piece cone may require 2 people. If temperature is above 50°F then proceed to Step 5.
If temperature is below 50°F then proceed to Step 4.
Step 4
Using Locking Sheet Metal Pliers bend the cone tabs outward to allow the cone to slide onto the fan easier.
See Figure 4.

Step 5
Look for the “TOP” label on the Polycone and set the top of the Polycone on top of the fan orifice and install
(2) Truss Head Bolts [B] through holes in fan outlet through the slots in the cone at about the 10 and 2
o’clock positions and fasten with Washers [C] and Flange Nuts [D]. Truss head of each bolt must be on
the inside of the fan outlet; washers and flange nuts must be on outside of cone.
See Figure 5A and 5B.
Finger tighten nuts only at this time.

Step 6
Work down the sides of the cone, sliding the cone tabs onto the fan until the bottom tab is in place. Keep
pressure on the cone to make sure tabs stay on the fan. Install (6) Truss Head Bolts [B], Washers [C] and
Flange Nuts [D] in the remaining holes in the fan outlet and slots in the cone to finish securing cone to fan.
See Figure 5B and Figure 6.
Tighten all nuts at this time, making sure not to over tighten.
Figure 7A
Step 7
The snap-in guard has a slight conical shape to it so, when installed the center of the guard should protrude
out slightly.
See Figure 7A.

Step 8
Starting at the bottom of the cone, locate one of the guard tabs and put the guard tab through the guard slot in
the cone.
See Figure 7B
.Then work up around the guard and install each of the other guard tabs in each of
the corresponding guard slots. Some force may be required to snap the last tab into the last slot, pull out on
the center of the cone while pushing in on the guard tab until it snaps into place.

a 9⁄32” dia. hole in the center of each pad. Then insert existing guard into cone with the guard eyelets facing
away from you. Line up each eyelet with a hole in the guard pads. Secure guard to cone using (8) existing
