REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow the
steps below to hang your 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" mounting.
The "close-to-ceiling" mounting is recommended
in rooms with less than 8-foot ceilings or in areas
where additional space is desired from the floor to
the fan blades.
When using the standard downrod installation, the
distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan
blades will be approximately 12 inches. The
"close-to-ceiling" installation reduces the distance
from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades to
approximately 9 inches.
Once you have decided which ceiling installation
you will use, proceed with the following
instructions. Where necessary, each section of the
instructions will note the different procedures to
follow for the two types of installation.

Blade Balancing
Figure 20
Check that all blade and blade bracket screws are secure.
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 from a point on the center of each blade to the point
on the ceiling. Measure this distance as shown in Figure 20. Rotate the fan
until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade.
Measurements deviation should be within 1/8˝. Run the fan for 10
Minutes.
Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still
noticeable.

Operating Your Fan
Warm weather - ((Counter-Clockwise direction) A
downward air flow creates a cooling effect as
shown in Figure 21. This allows you to set your air
conditioner on a higher setting without affecting
your comfort.
Cool weather - (Clockwise direction) An upward
air flow moves warm air off the ceiling are as
shown in Figure 22. This allows you to set your
heating unit on a lower setting without affecting
your comfort.
Turn on the power and check the operation of the
fan. The pull chain controls the fan speed as
follows:
1 pull - High
2 pulls - Medium
3 pulls - Low
4 pulls - Off.
Speed settings for warm or cool weather depend
on factors such as the room size, ceiling height,
number of fans, and so on.
The slide switch controls directions: forward
(switch down) or reverse (switch up).
WARNING
LOCKING SLOTS OF CEILING CANOPY ARE
PRVIDED ONLY AS AN AID TO MOUNTING. DO
NOT LEAVE FAN ASSEMBLY UNATTENDED
