I cannot access the Vowell drawings-need 26-27 fan info

That part of the forum must still be down. Does anyone have instructions on how the fan goes together? We have a bunch of parts, but no technical drawing. Thank you.

Clarification. We are putting a fan together with the new bearing assembly from Langs (Texas T) . Not sure of the assembly sequence like Martin shows in his drawings.

Instructions from site.

T3962-BBH
‘20-’27 Ball Bearing Fan Hub Installation Instructions
Your new fan hub is designed to use your old hub shaft, without the need to purchase a new shaft. Unless your old shaft is completely mutilated, it should work just fine. In fact, a worn original shaft may work better, as some of the replacement shafts that are available today are over-sized, and may require a light press fit to install it.
The spacer provided must be used between the hub and the mounting arm or bracket. It locks the inner bearing races when the shaft is tightened. The inner races must be locked to achieve proper operation of the ball bearings.
As sealed bearings have some inherent drag, be sure your belt is clean, free of oil, and adjusted properly. You may want to use some belt dressing until the seals loosen up (You may already be using some if you are running a water pump).
When mounting your fan blade, you may find it necessary to "move" slightly one or two of the holes in the blade. It seems that Henry didn’t always put them in the same place.

Jeff. That is not the same web site that is under the forum 'Photo gallery and other topics'. Can you correct it AFTER you finish your vacation. Spend some time with your wife, not us.

This is the link that is currently on the Vowell drawing page, and it is incorrect.
