Hanging the Fan
REMEMBER to turn off th the power. Follow
the steps below to hangyour fan properly. NOTE:
This ceiling fan is supplied with two types of
hanging assemblies; the standard ceiling
installation using the downrod with ball and
socket mounting and the "close-to-ceiling"
installation. The "close-to-ceiling" installation
is recommended in rooms with less than 8-feet
ceilings or in areas where additional space is
desired from the floor to the fan blades. When
using the standard 4 1/2"downrod, the distance
from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades
will be approximately 12 inches. The "close-
to-ceiling" installation reduce this distanceto 8-
inches. Once you have selected which mounting
system you will use, proceed with the following

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 arm
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 16. 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 Balancing Kit if
the blade wobbleis still 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.

Turn on the power and check the operation of
your fan. The pull chain controls the fan speed
as follows: 1 pull- High, 2 pulls-Medium, 3
pulls- Low, and 4pulls-Off.
Speed settings for warm or coolweather depend
on factors such as the room size, ceiling height,
number of fans,and so on.
The slide switch controls directions: forward
(switch down) orreverse (switch up).
Warm weather - (Forward) A downward
airflow creates a cooling effect as shown
in Figure 18. This allows you to set your
air conditioner on a higher setting without
affecting your comfort.
Cool weather - (Reverse) An upward
airflow moves warm air off the ceiling
area as shown in Figure 19. This allows
you to set your heating unit on a lower
setting without affecting your comfort.
11.Operating Your Fan
Figure 18
Figure19

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 cause
an 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.
