Step 1 Attach blades to blade arms using three
screws and rubber washers as shown in Figure
15. Start ascrew into thebracket, do not tighten.
Repeat for the2 remaining screwsand washers.
Step 2 Tighten each screw securely starting
with the center screw. Make sure the blade is
straight.
Step 3 Fasten the blade arms to the motor by
inserting the tab from the blade arms to the slot
in the bottom motor housing, then tighten the
two screws and washers already installed in the
blade arms (Figure16).
Step 4 Install an optional light kit if you wish.
Follow the instructionsincluded with thekit.
All blades are grouped by weight. Because
natural woods very in density, the fan may
wobble even though the blades are weighed
equally.
The following procedure should correct most
fan wobbling problems.Check after each step.
1. Check that all blade and blade screws
are secure.
2. Most fan wobbling problems are caused
when blade levels are unequal. Check this
level by selecting a point on the ceiling above
the tip of one of the blades. Measure this
distance as shown in Figure 17. Rotate the fan
until the next blade is positioned for
measurement. Repeat for each blade. The
distance should be equal within
1/8".

deviation
3. Use the enclosed Blade BalancingKit if the
blade wobble isstill noticeable.
4. If the blade wobble is still noticeable,
interchanging two adjacent (side by side)
blades can redistribute the weight and
possibly result insmoother operation.

Speed settings for warm or cool weather depend
on factors such as the room size, ceiling height,
number of fans,etc.
Warm weather - (Forward) A downward air
flow creates a cooling effect as shown in Figure
21. This allows you to set your air conditioner on
a higher settingwithout affecting your comfort.
Cool weather - (Reverse) An upward airflow
moves warm air off the ceiling area as shown in
Figure 22. This allows you to set your heating
unit on a lower setting without affecting your
comfort.
The Reverse switch is located on the top of
motor assembly. Slide the switch to the Left
for warm weather operation. Slide the switch
to the Rightfor cool weatheroperation.
NOTE: Wait for fan to stop before changing
the setting ofthe slide switch.

13. Care of Your Fan
Here are some suggestions to help you maintain
your fan
1.Because of the fan's natural movement, some
connections may become loose. Check the
support connections, brackets, and blade
attachments twice a year. Make sure they are
secure. (It is not necessary to remove fan from
ceiling.)
2. Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its
new appearance over the years. Use only a soft
brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the
finish. The plating is sealed with a lacquer to
minimize discoloration or tarnishing. Do not use
water when cleaning. This could damage the motor,
or the wood,or possibly causean electrical shock.
3. You can apply a light coat of
furniture polish to the wood blades for
additional protection and enhanced
beauty. Cover small scratches with a
light application ofshoe polish.
4. There is no need to oil your fan.
The motor has permanently lubricated
bearings.
