Blade balancing

The following procedure should correct most fan wobble. Check after each step.
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 centre of each blade to the point on the ceiling. Measure this distance as shown in figure. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. Measurements deviation should be within 3 mm (1/8 in.). Run the fan for 10 minutes.
Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.

Blade Balancing Kit

The balancing kit should only be used if there is an unacceptable amount of fan wobble after completing all the steps in the user manual under “Fan Blades Assembly”.

1. Turn the fan on and set the speed control setting to a speed at which the wobble is the greatest.
2. Turn off the fan and allow it to come to a complete stop. Mark the blades with masking tape number 1-5. Select one blade and place the balance clip on it halfway between the blade holder and the blade tip on the trailing edge of the blade.
3. Turn the fan on. Note whether the wobble has increased or decreased. Turn the fan off, move the clip to another blade, and retest. Repeat this procedure on all blades noting the blade on which the greatest improvement is achieved.
4. Adjust the clip on this blade as shown in the illustration and operate the fan to find the position where the clip gives the greatest improvement.
5. Remove the clip, clean the area where the weight is to be added, and install a balancing weight to the top of the blade along the center line near the point where the clip was positioned on the blade.
6. If the fan wobble problem has not been corrected, you may wish to try to improve the balancing further by using the balancing clip and additional weights.

Safety instructions

PRODUCT MAINTENANCE

Here are some suggestions to help you maintain your fan.
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. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish. The plating is sealed with a lacquer to minimize discolouration or tarnishing. Do not use water when cleaning. This could damage the motor, 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.

WARNING: make sure the power is off at the electrical panel box before you attempt any repairs. Refer to the section “Making Electrical Connections.”

TROUBLESHOOTING

-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

Fan sounds noisy| -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
