24 Installing Guy Wires (cont.)<br />

4. Route guy wire through Gripple ®<br />

Route the guy wire through the Gripple and the carabiner on the guy wire clamp, and then back through the Gripple as shown below.<br />

Do not tighten the Gripple until the remaining guy wires have been installed.<br />

Note: To back the guy wire out of the Gripple, the small tool included with the Gripple set or a 0.050” Allen wrench into the small hole on<br />

the Gripple.<br />

5. Install three remaining guy wires<br />

CAUTION: Over-tightening the guy wires could throw the fan off balance.<br />

Wire Rope Clip<br />

Repeat steps 3–4 to install the three remaining guy wires.<br />

Evenly cinch all four guy wires into place using the Gripples. The guy wires should be<br />

taut, evenly spaced around the fan, and away from the path of the airfoils. Maintain a<br />

distance of 6”–8” between the Gripple and the carabiner.<br />

Once all of the guy wires are taut, secure their loose ends with the wire rope clips and<br />

torque to 4.5 ft·lb (6.1 N·m). Ensure all electrical cords/cables are unobstructed by the<br />

guy wire system.<br />
