Enstalasyon

Before using the puller, ensure all components are present and undamaged. The puller is designed for straightforward assembly.

1. Prepare the Main Puller Body: Identify the main cylindrical body of the puller. It has a central threaded hole and several smaller holes around the base.
2. Insert Pull Fingers: Thread the four pull fingers into the smaller threaded holes at the base of the main puller body. Do not overtighten them yet.
3. Insert Center Shaft: Thread the long center shaft into the central threaded hole of the main puller body. This shaft will apply the primary pulling force.
4. Attach Alignment Tool (Optional): If your fan blade has a central shaft, the black alignment tool can be placed over it to help center the puller.

Enstriksyon Operasyon

Follow these steps to safely remove a fan blade or blower wheel:

1. Sekirite Premye: Ensure the appliance's power supply is disconnected. Wear safety glasses and work gloves.
2. Position the Puller: Place the assembled puller over the fan blade or blower wheel. The pull fingers should be positioned to grip the underside of the fan hub, and the center shaft should align with the motor shaft.
3. Secure the Puller: Tighten the four pull fingers evenly until they firmly grip the fan blade. Use the hex wrench for this step. Ensure the puller is stable and centered.
4. Apply Pulling Force: Using a wrench on the hex head of the center shaft, slowly and steadily turn the shaft clockwise. This will exert upward pressure on the fan blade, gradually separating it from the motor shaft.
5. Presyon inifòm: If the blade is particularly stubborn, apply force gradually. Avoid sudden, jerky movements. If necessary, slightly loosen and re-tighten the pull fingers to ensure even pressure.
6. Retire lam la: Continue turning the center shaft until the fan blade is completely free from the motor shaft.
