Assembly <strong>and</strong> Operation<br />

Refer to FIGURE 1 below, <strong>and</strong> the Assembly Drawing on page 5.<br />

Warning!! Before setting this Windmill in the ground, contact your local utility company to<br />

make sure there are no buried cables or pipes in the desired location. If locating the Windmill<br />

on a rooftop, read <strong>and</strong> adhere to the warnings on page 3.<br />

1. Stack the Blades (3) so that they resemble the pattern in the box in FIGURE 1, making<br />

sure the fins face out, toward the wind. Lay number 2 over number 1 so that the holes<br />

match. Then, lay number 3 over number 2 so that all four holes match evenly.<br />

2. Lubricate the Bearing Assembly (4) prior to assembly, using a lightweight grease.<br />

3. Using three Bolts (8) <strong>and</strong> three star Washers (10), attach the blade assembly to the<br />

Bearing Assembly (4) <strong>and</strong> secure with three Nuts (6).<br />

4. Attach the Directional Finder (2) to the Tube Frame (1) with two Self-tapping Screws<br />

(5). Thread in the Bolt (9) to secure the Bearing Assembly (4). See Figure 1.<br />

5. Tap Extension Tube (B) into the ground. Make sure it is securely in place <strong>and</strong> insert<br />

Extension Tube (A) onto Tube (B).<br />

Operation Notes:<br />

1. A rattling sound in the tube is normal.<br />

2. Just a few turns in a 24 hour period will effectively rid the area of moles.<br />

3. Keep the unit lubricated. See Maintenance section below.<br />

Maintenance<br />

1. The Bearing Assembly (4) is not grease-packed, it will require lubricating periodically.<br />

2. Check the pole stability periodically. If it seems loose, remove the Windmill <strong>and</strong> pound in<br />

the pole. Replace the Windmill.<br />

3. Keep the Blades (3) clean of dirt <strong>and</strong> debris.<br />
