2 This represents the most common arrange-ment. For inverted fans or for other arrangements, it will benecessary for the reader to visualize the illustrations re-oriented or sequence given for the installation may be changedif the conditions warrant. For example, the air seal may beinstalled on the hub before the hub is installed on the driveshaft. (In fact, for inverted fans, it is necessary to install the airseal first.) The installation should be planned before begin-ning so that the steps required are taken in the most conve-nient order. If you need information not found here, pleasecontact FAN IDENTIFICATIONE very fan, or group of identical fans, is assigned a JobNumber. This number will be found on Section FanSpecifications inserted in the envelope on the inside cover ofthis manual. If non-identical fans are shipped together, a JobNumber is assigned to each fan or group and a set of OrderInformation Sheets will be included for each Job Job Number is written in semi-permanent ink oneach blade, hub and air seal.

3 All fan parts bearing the sameJob Number are entirely interchangeable. (Blades of thesame Series and Diameter are also interchangeable betweenJob Numbers.)Fan components covered by more than one Job Num-ber may be crated together. The Job Number that is writtenon each part, however, will make sorting individual fan produced by Moore is assigned aSerial Number. This Serial Number is embossed on a perma-nent metal tag and attached to each fan hub. For automaticfans, the Serial Number tag will be found on the base of thehub plate. For manual fans, the Serial Number tag will befound on the side of the hub between two of the Fan Specification Sheet provided for each JobNumber lists all of the individual Serial Numbers of theidentical fans covered by that Job Number so that, in INSTALLATION GETTING CLASS 5400 FANS OWNER'S ABOUT THIS MANUAL ..
