Daily Maintenance
- Clean the Monorail: To keep the monorail clean, wipe it with a cloth or non-abrasive scouring pad after each use. You can use soap and water or any glass cleaner.
Every 50 Hours of Use
- Lubricate the Chain: Apply a teaspoon of purified mineral oil, 3-IN-ONE oil, or 20W motor oil to a paper towel and rub it along the entire chain length. Wipe off any excess oil.

- Inspect the Chain: Check for stiff links. If lubrication doesn’t resolve the issue, consider replacing the chain.

- Tighten the Shock Cord: Ensure the handle returns to the fan enclosure.
- Check Screws: Make sure all screws, including those used for assembly, are tight.
- Monitor Arm Joints: Adjust the tension if needed.
