Is it correct to test the fan without mounting the blades?

Modified on Fri, 24 Jan at 3:37 PM

It is important to know that DC motor fans are calibrated to function properly only when they are fully installed, including the blades.


⚠️ If you try to turn on the fan without the blades installed, this could damage the motor and/or affect its operation.


These fans are designed to not start if the blades are not properly installed, which explains why they stop when trying to turn them on without the blades. If you have seen videos where the fan stops when trying to turn it on without the blades, this is completely normal and is related to the motor protection.


To ensure everything works correctly, we recommend assembling the fan step by step and making sure the fan is fully installed before testing it. If you need help with assembly, we have tutorial videos on our website to guide you through the installation process.


We also recommend reviewing the installation manual.
