Finishing the Fan Installation

STANDARD CEILING MOUNTING

WARNING: WHEN USING THE STANDARD BALL/DOWNROD MOUNTING, THE TAB IN THE RING AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MOUNTING PLATE MUST REST IN THE GROOVE OF THE HANGER BALL. FAILURE TO PROPERLY SEAT THE TAB IN THE GROOVE COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO WIRING.

1. Align the locking slots of the ceiling canopy with the two screws in the mounting plate. Push up to engage the slots and turn clockwise to lock in place. Immediately tighten the two mounting screws firmly.
2. Install the remaining two mounting screws into the holes in the canopy and tighten firmly.
3. Install the decorative canopy ring by aligning the ring’s slots with the screws in the canopy. Rotate the ring clockwise to lock in place. (Figure 15)

Blade Balancing
All blades are grouped by weight. Because materials vary in density, the fan may wobble even though the blades are weight matched. The following procedure should correct most fan wobble. Check after each step.

1. Check that all blade screws are secure.
2. 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 16. 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.
3. Make sure that canopy is tightened securely to ceiling mounting bracket and that the ceiling mounting bracket is tightened securely to the electrical box.
4. Interchanging two adjacent blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in the smoother operation.
5. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.

Preparing the Remote Control
NOTE: The remote control has already been paired to the ceiling fan for your convenience. If you have two of the same model fans in your home , please follow the steps below to control each fan independently.

1. Remove the battery cover by pressing firmly on the arrow and sliding the cover off.
2. Install two 1.5V AAA batteries (included).
3. Slide the dip switch in the battery compartment to the “1” setting.

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, this could damage the motor, or possibly cause an electrical shock. 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. Warning – Make sure the power is off before cleaning your fan.
3. You can apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood 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: Fan will not start
Solution

1. Check main and branch circuit fuses or breakers
2. Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing. CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.
3. Check batteries in the transmitter. Does the red LED light come on?Are you standing close enough to the fan? (Normal range is 10-20 feet.) Are the dip switch settings the same on the transmitter (hand unit) and receiver? REMEMBER TO TURN OFF POWER SUPPLY BEFORE CHECKING THE DIP SWITCH SETTINGS IN RECEIVER.

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.
   CAUTION : Make sure power is off.

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. Check that the light bulb is also secure.

6. Make sure the canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.

7. Make sure your electrical box is secure and rubber isolator pads were used between the mounting bracket and electrical box.

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