READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY FOR SAFE INSTALLATION AND FAN OPERATION. IF UNSURE CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Safety Information

  1. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

  2. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

  3. To ensure the success of the installation be sure to read the instructions and study the diagrams thoroughly before commencing.

  4. This fan MUST be installed with an easily accessible isolated device to disconnect all poles of the fan from the main supply.

  5. The electrical installation must be performed by a licensed electrician.

  6. Do not connect the fan motor to a dimmer switch (solid-state). This may give an unsatisfactory performance (motor
    hum) and cause damage to the motor.

  7. The fan must be earthed.

  8. All electrical work should only be undertaken after disconnection of the power by removing fuses or turning off the circuit breaker to ensure all pole isolation of the electrical supply. If you are in any doubt the services of a qualified electrician should be sought to ensure that all work is carried out in accordance with AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Rules, current good practice and other national and local electrical codes.

  9. The fixing point for the fan must be able to support a weight of 48kg. Net weights can be found on the bottom of the unit’s box. If you are mounting the fan to a ceiling junction box, the box and it’s fixing must be able to support the moving weight of the fan and must not twist or work loose.

  10. Make sure that your installation site will not allow the rotating fan blades to come into contact with any object and that there is a minimum clearance of 150mm from the blade tip to the wall or ceiling. Please note that the bigger this clearance is the better the airflow from your fan will be. Ensure the blades are mounted at a minimum height of 2.1 meters from the floor when the fan is installed.

  11. The electrical installation must be performed by a licensed electrician.

  12. Do not insert anything into the fan blades while the fan is operating. This will damage the blades and upset the balance of the unit causing the unit to wobble.

  13. After the fan is completely installed make sure that all connections are secure and tight to prevent any problems. Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may loosen. Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year to make sure they are all secure. If they are loose tighten with a screwdriver. ( It is not necessary to take the fan down from the ceiling )

NOTE: The important safeguards and instructions given in this manual are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood that common sense, caution, and care are factors, which cannot be built into any product. These factors must be supplied by the persons caring for and using the unit.

The light source is non-user replaceable. The LED lamp panel must be replaced by a licensed electrician.

  • Cool-weather:  Reverse (clockwise) An upward airflow moves warm air off the ceiling area as shown. This allows you to set your heating unit in a cooler 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 the 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 of shoe polish.
  4. There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated bearings.

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

Troubleshooting

Problem / Solution

Fan will not start

  1. Check circuit fuses or breakers.

  2. Check all electrical connections to ensure proper contact.
    CAUTION: Make sure the main power is OFF when checking any electrical connection.

  3. Check that the battery of the remote is functioning.

Fan sounds noisy

  1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
  2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade brackets to the motor are tight.
  3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rubbing against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing. CAUTION: Make sure the main power is off.
  4. Allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period. Most noise associated with a new fan disappears during this time.
  5. Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.
  6. Do not connect the fan with wall-mounted variable speed control(s). They are not compatible with DC motors.

Fan wobble

  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 b selecting a point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades. Measure this distance (from the floor or ceiling). Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. The distance deviation should be equal to 1/8″ (3mm).
  3. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.
  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.

Remote control malfunction

  1. Replace the batteries in the remote control handpiece.
