Warning

means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be 

locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such  as a tag, to the service panel.

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

either way. Fan will not operate when switch is in the middle.

4.If this fan uses remote controller, make sure dip switches are setting properly and make 

1.Check to make sure all screws in motor housing are snug (not over tightened).

2.Check to make sure the screws which attach the fan blade holder to the motor are tight.

3.Check to make sure wire nut connectors in switch housing are not rattling against each 

other or against the interior wall of the switch housing.

CAUTION

4.Check to be sure light bulb is tight in socket and not touching the glass shade.

5.Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from Solid State variable speed controls.  

6.Allow "break-in" period of 24 hours.  Most noises associated with a new fan will disappear 

after this period.

1.If this is a downrod mount fan, make sure the ridge on mounting bracket engages the 

notch in the downrod ball.

2.Make sure that canopy, mounting bracket or mounting plate are tightened securely to 

4.Check that all blade holders are tightened securely to motor.

5.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 this distance 

from blade tip to ceilng. Keeping measure within 1/8", 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. Reverse the position of the washer if 

blades mount from top of blade.

6.If blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side) blades can 

redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother operation.

If the above steps do not eliminate the wobble problem, you will need to dynamic balance 

your fan with balancing kit provided.    

1.Check blue wire from fan to make sure it is connected to hot wire from house.

2.Check for loose or disconnected wires in fan switch housing.

3.Check for loose or disconnected wires in light kit.

4.Check for faulty light bulb and make sure bulb is tight in socket.

5.Remove light kit and check the plug connections if they are present.

6.If this fan uses remote controller, make sure dip switches are setting properly and make 

 

CAUTION

: Make sure main power is turned off before entering switch housing and/or 

canopy.
