The following procedure should correct most
fan wobble issues. Check after each step.
1. Check that all blades and blade holder
screws are secure.
2. Most fan wobble 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
unt il the n ex t b lade is posi ti on ed for
measurement. Repeat for each blade. The
distance should be equal within 1/8".
If all blade levels are not equal, you can
adjust the blade level with the following
procedure.
3. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the
blade wobble is still noticeable. (Please refer
to the introduction provide in the blade
balancing kit, which is individually packed.)
4. If the blade wobble is still noticeable,
interchanging two adjacent (side by side)
blades can redistribute the weight and
possibly result in smoother operation.

the 2 remaining screws and washers.
2. Tighten each screw securely starting
with the center screw. Make sure the blade
is straight.

4. F asten the blade assemblies to motor
housing by tightening two previous
removed screws from the motor housing.

Speed settings for warm or cool weather
depend on factors such as the room size,
ceiling height, number of fans, etc.
The Reverse switch is located on the switch
box. Slide the switch down for warm weather
operation. Slide the switch up for cool weather
operation.
Warm weather - (Counter-Clockwise
direction) A downward air flow creates a
cooling effect.(Fig. 21) This allows you to
set your air conditioner on a higher setting
without affecting your comfort.
Cool weather - (Clockwise direction) An
upward airflow moves warm air off the
ceiling area. (Fig. 22) This allows you to set
your heating unit on a lower setting without
affecting your comfort.

Care of Your Fa n Troubleshooting
PROBLEM SOLUTION
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.)
Clean your fan periodically to help maintain
its new appearance over the years. Do not use
water when cleaning. 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.
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 of shoe polish.
There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has
permanently lubricated sealed ball
bearings.1.2.3.4.
Here are some suggestions to help you
maintain your fan.
Check main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.
Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire
connections in the switch housing.
Check to make sure the dip switches from the transmitter and
receiver are set to the same frequency.
Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the
motor hub is tight.
Make sure wire nut connections are not rattling against each
other or the interior wall of the switch housing.
Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noises associated
with a new fan disappear during this time.
If using ceiling fan light kit, make sure the screws securing the
glassware are tight. Check that the light bulb is also secure.
Make sure there is a short distance from the ceiling to the
canopy. It should not touch the ceiling.
Make sure your ceiling box is secure and rubber isolator pads
are used between mounting bracket and outlet box.
MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX
BEFORE YOU ATTEMPY ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION,
“MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS”.
