14. TROUBLESHOOTING

Solution

1. Check 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.

1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor 

hub is tight.

3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rubbing against each other or 

the interior wall of the switch housing. 

CAUTION:

 Make sure main 

power is off.

4. Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noise associated with a 

new fan disappear during this time.

5. If using an optional light kit, make sure the screws securing the 

glassware are tight. Check that the light bulb is also secure.

6. Do not connect the fan with a wall mounted variable speed control (s).
7. Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It 

should not touch the ceiling.

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 by selecting a point on the ceiling above the 
tip of one of the blades. Measure this distance. Rotate the fan until the 
next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. The 
distance deviation should be equal within 1/8".

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.

WARNING:

 TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY,  DO NOT BEND 

THE BLADE ARM WHILE INSTALLING, BALANCING THE BLADES, OR 
CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT INSERT FOREIGN OBJECTS BETWEEN 
ROTATING FAN BLADES.

1. This unit is equipped with a wattage limiting device. Lamping in 

excess of 190 watts will disable your ceiling fan's light kit. To reset your 
light kit you must turn the power off and re lamp, keeping the 
wattage under 190 watts. Restore power to your ceiling fan and 
continue normal operation.

Problem

Fan will not start.

Fan sounds 
noisy.

Fan wobble.

Lights shut off 
and will not 
come back on.
