    CAUTION: Prior to installation confirm the operation direction of the
    fan, and ensure this coincides with the direction of free
    rotation of the AirBrake.
    STEP 1.
    NOTE:
    Confirm there is at least 1.5 inches (38.1 mm) of available shaft and that there is at
    least 3 inches (76.2 mm) of clearance between the bottom of the shaft and the
    nearest obstacle.

    1.5 “ (38.1mm) Minimum

    Figure 1. Minimum shaft extension necessary to install the AirBrake®.


    STEP 2.
    Install the AirBrake® assembly onto the fan shaft by aligning the modified setscrew
    with the keyway of the fan shaft and sliding the assembly onto the shaft until the bot-
    tom of the shaft comes into contact with the lip of the AirBrake® assembly as seen in
    Figure 2.

    Table 1. Torque values for the modified set screw.

    Keyway Width (in) Torque (ft-lbs) Keyway Width (mm) Torque (kg-m)
    3/4 150 20 19.4
    5/8 100 18 15.3
    1/2 50 16 11.4
    3/8 20 14 7.6
    1/4 6

    STEP 3.
    Apply Loctite 262 to the threads of the modified setscrew and tighten using a hex
    wrench to the proper torque value (see Table 1).

    STEP 4.
    Apply Loctite 262 to the threads of the plain setscrew and tighten using a hex wrench
    to 45 ft-lbs (6.2 kg-m).

    STEP 5.
    Insert the thimble portion of the cable assembly onto the shackle. Install the shackle
    on the arm of the AirBrake® assembly with the head of the bolt on the upper part of
    the shackle as shown in Figure 3. Tighten the nut of the bolt to 20 ft-lbs (2.8 kg-m)
    and install the cotter pin in the bolt.
    Apply Loctite 262 at these locations

    Cable Assembly
    Figure 3. Installation of shackle and cable assembly.

    STEP 6.
    Attach the supplied 1/2”-13 eye bolt to a nearby support using the supplied lock
    washer and nut. Insert one end of the thimble through the eye bolt. Secure the free
    end of the restraining cable to the attached eyebolt using the supplied wire rope clips
    as shown in Figure 4. Ensure that the attachment to the support will not make the
    cable more than plus or minus 10° out of level as shown in Figure 5. Remove all of
    the slack out of the cable, apply Loctite 262 to the threads of the rope clips and tighten
    the clips.
    TMC 866 REV G (Jun 13)
    Position saddle side of the clip on the live end and the u-bolt
    side of clip on the dead end.

    Secure restraining cable using


    wire rope clips and apply Loctite
    to the threads.

    No more than ± 10° out of level

    STEP 7.
    After the installation of the restraining cable, attempt to rotate the fan in the
    backwards direction by hand and ensure that the AirBrake® is working properly and
    that there is no slack in the restraining cable. Also, ensure that the restraining cable
    will not rub on any sharp edges that might lead to fraying of the cable.
    STEP 8.
    Install all required guards and confirm there is sufficient clearance for the AirBrake®.

    STEP 9.
    After all of the necessary guards have been installed, run the fan at full speed and
    ensure that the cable is taut and positioned properly, and that everything is working
    correctly.
