Step 4 Hanging the Fan Body
Notice the half ball on the end of the support rod is grooved down one side (see
figure 9). This keyway fits over the small keyway pin on the inside of the mounting
bracket and keeps the ceiling fan from spinning on the mounting bracket.
Using your step ladder, lift the fan and place the half ball in the center of the
mounting bracket with the keyway pin inserted into the keyway on the ball. Turn the
fan left and right slightly to make sure it is seated on the bracket with the keyway
pin in the keyway (see figure 10).

To operate your ceiling fan with the pull chain(s) and switches mounted on your
fan, follow the instruction below (see figure 12-1).
Attach the GREEN wire (connected to the half ball) to the GROUND wire in the
junction box. The GROUND wire is usually a bare copper wire without plastic
insulation. It could also be covered in green plastic insulation.
Attach the BLACK wire and BLUE wire from the ceiling fan to the BLACK wire in
the junction box.
Attach the WHITE wire from the ceiling fan to the WHITE wire in the junction box.
Fold the connected wires (see figure 12-2) and push them up inside the electrical
junction box with the BLACK and BLUE wires to one side and the WHITE and
GREEN to the other side. Make sure the wire nuts do not come loose during this
operation.

Troubleshooting Guide:
cases these installation errors may be mistaken for defects. If you experience any faults please check this troubleshooting guide.
Problem Suggested Remedy:
1. If fan does not start:
1. Check main and branch circuit fuses or circuit breakers.
2. Check line wire connections to fan and switch wire connections in switch housing. CAUTION:
switch is in the middle.
4. Make sure that the wall controller is turned “ON”.
2. If fan sounds noisy:
1. Make sure all screws in motor housing are snug (not over tightened).
2. Make sure the screws which attach the fan blade holder to the motor are tight.
3. Make sure wire nut connectors in switch housing are not rattling against each other or against
the interior wall of the switch housing.
4. If using an optional ceiling fan light kit check to be sure the screws securing the glass shade are
tight. Check to be sure the light bulb is tight on the socket and not touching the glass shade.
5. Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from solid state variable speed controls. DO NOT USE a
solid state variable speed control.
6. Your ceiling fan’s “break in” period is 24 hours of operation. Most noises associated with a new
fan will disappear after this period.
3. If fan wobbles:
All blades are weighed and grouped by weight. Natural woods vary in density which could
cause the fan to wobble even though all blades are weight-matched. The following procedures
should eliminate most of the wobble. Check for wobble after each step.
2. Check that all blade holders are tightened securely to motor.
3. Make sure that canopy and mounting bracket are tightened securely to ceiling junction box
4. 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 keeping measure within 1/8
in. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. If
all blade levels are not equal you can adjust blade levels by the following procedure. To adjust a
blade tip down insert a washer (not supplied) between the blade and blade holder at the screw
closest to the motor. To adjust a blade tip up insert washer (not supplied) between the blade
and blade holder at the two screws farthest from the motor.
5. If blade wobble is still noticeable interchanging two adjacent (side by side) blades can
redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother operation.
. If light does not work:
1. Check blue wire from fan to make sure it is connected to hot wire from the house.
2. Check for loose or disconnected wires in fan switch housing.
3. Check for loose or disconnected wires in light kit.
