To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need an installation hanger bar as shown in Figure 4 (available at any Home Depot store).

Hanging the Fan

REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow the steps below to hang your fan properly.

1. Remove the canopy bottom cover from the canopy by turning the cover counterclockwise. (Figure 5)

2. Remove the mounting bracket from the canopy by loosening canopy mounting screws a half turn from the screw head. Next, turn the canopy counterclockwise to remove the mounting bracket from the canopy. (Figure 5)

3. Remove the cotter pin and clevis pin, and loosen the two collar set screws from the fan motor assembly collar. (Figure 6)

4. Take out the setscrew located in the hanger ball, lower the hanger ball and remove the cross pin. Remove the hanger ball from the hanger ball/downrod assembly. (Figure 6)

5. Remove the ground lead from the downrod assembly. (Figure 6)

NOTE: If a longer downrod is needed, take out the screw located in the hanger ball, lower the hanger ball and remove the pin, remove all 3 pieces from the downrod and assemble them onto the new longer downrod before proceeding step 3. (The longer downrod is available at any Home Depot store)

6. Carefully feed the motor wires up through the downrod. Thread the downrod into the collar. Align the holes and replace the clevis pin and cotter pin. Tighten the two collar setscrews. (Figure 8)

7. Slip coupling cover, canopy bottom cover, and canopy onto the downrod. Carefully reinstall the hanger ball onto the downrod and reinstall the ground lead onto the downrod, being sure that the cross pin is in the correct position, the setscrew is tightened and wires are not twisted. (Figure 8)

WARNING
FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL COTTER PIN AS NOTED IN STEP 6 COULD RESULT IN FAN LOOSENING AND POSSIBLY FALLING.

Blade Balancing

All blades are grouped by weight during assembly. The following procedure should correct most fan wobble. Check after each step.

1. Verify that all blades and blade bracket screws are secure (most fan wobble problems are caused by loose parts). Once the fan is properly installed, run the ceiling fan for 10 minutes to let the fan self-adjust.

2. If wobble occurs after running the fan for 10 minutes, verify blade level using the following process:

– Select a point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades, then select any fan blade and measure from the center of the selected blade to the point on the ceiling (as shown in Figure 18). Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned and repeat the measurement using the same point from the ceiling for every blade. Measurement deviations should be within 1/8″.

– If all deviations are less than 1/8″ and the fan continues to wobble, please call Customer Service (800-004-6633) to order a complimentary Blade Balancing Kit.

– If deviation is greater than 1/8″ , please call Customer Service (800-004-6633) to order complimentary replacements of your brackets.

Installing the LED Light Kit

NOTE
BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION, DISCONNECT THE POWER BY TURNING OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR REMOVING THE FUSE AT FUSE BOX. TURNING POWER OFF USING THE FAN SWITCH IS NOT SUFFICIENT TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK.

1. While holding the 20W LED light kit under the fan motor assembly, snap together the wire connection plugs :
– White to white          – Black to blue

2. Position the notches on the inner edge of the 20W LED light kit so they match the tabs on the outside of the rim. Carefully lift the 20W LED light kit inside and secure it to the fan by turning the 20W LED light kit clockwise until comfortable. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. (Figure 19)

3. Raise glass shade up against the LED light kit, and secure it to fan by turning glass clockwise until snug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. (Fig. 19)

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 top of motor housing. Slide the switch to the left for warm weather operation. Slide the switch to the right for cool weather operation.

NOTE
WAIT FOR FAN TO STOP BEFORE CHANGING THE SETTING OF THE SLIDE SWITCH.

Warm weather – (Counter-Clockwise direction) A downward air flow creates a cooling effect.(Fig. 22) 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. 23) This allows you to set your heating unit on a lower setting without affecting your comfort.

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. 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.

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 of shoe polish.

4. There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated sealed ball bearings.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM SOLUTION
The fan will not start.
  1. Check the main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.
  2. Check the line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.
  3. Check to make sure the switches from the transmitter and receiver are set to the same frequency.

The fan sounds noisy.|

  1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
  2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub are tight.
  3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing.
  4. Allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this time.
  5. If using the ceiling fan light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight.
  6. Make sure there is a short distance from the ceiling to the canopy. It should not touch the ceiling.
  7. Make sure your ceiling box is secure and rubber isolator pads are used between the mounting bracket and outlet box.

Remote control fails.|

  1. Do not connect the fan with a wall mounted variable speed control(s).
  2. Make sure the dip switches are set correctly.

WARNING
MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION, “MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS”.

The fan wobbles.|

  1. Verify that all blades and blade bracket screws are secure (most fan wobble problems are caused by loose parts). Once the fan is properly installed, run the ceiling fan for 10 minutes to let the fan self-adjust. If wobble occurs after running the fan for 10 minutes, verify blade level using the following process:
    – Select a point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades, then select any fan blade and measure from the center of the selected blade to the point on the ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned and repeat the measurement using the same point from the ceiling for every blade.Measurement deviations should be within 1/8 in.
    – If all deviations are less than 1/8 in. and the fan continues to wobble, please call Customer Service (800-986-3460) to order a complimentary Blade Balancing Kit.
    – If deviation is greater than 1/8 in., please call Customer Service (800-986-3460) to order complimentary replacements of your brackets.
