12. 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. 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".

in Fig. 18. This allows you to set your air conditioner
on a warmer setting without affecting your comfort.
Cool weather - (Clockwise direction) An upward
airflow moves warm air off the ceiling area as
shown in Fig. 19. This allows you to set your
heating unit on a cooler setting without affecting
your comfort.
NOTE:
FAN MUST BE INSTALLED AT A
MAXIMUM DISTANCE OF 30 FEET FROM
THE TRANSMITTING UNIT FOR PROPER
