HVLS Fan preventive maintenance checklist

If you look after HVLS Fan equipment, you already know the failures: loose hardware, blade imbalance and the safety cable check nobody documents.

This checklist gives you 3 ready-to-use PM tasks with frequency, trade, estimated hours, step-by-step procedure, parts, safety requirements and pass/fail criteria. Import it into your CMMS or print it for the technician.
