4. Rotate the center flywheel until the blade
bracket screw holes in the center flywheel
are visible from the cut-out in the light kit
plate of the fan motor (Figure 8b).
5. Align the two captive screws in the blade
bracket with the screw holes in the center
flywheel and tighten the screws securely.
6. Repeat steps 1-5 for the remaining blade/
blade bracket assemblies.
7. Re-install the screw driver access cover re-
moved in step 3 to the light kit plate.
BLADE BALANCING
All blades are grouped by weight. Because
natural woods 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 and blade brackets 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 9. Rotate the fan until the next
Figure 8b
blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat
for each blade. Measurement deviations
should be within 1/8". Run the fan for 10
minutes.
3. Use the enclosed Bladed Balancing Kit if
the blade wobble is still noticeable.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY,
DO NOT BEND THE BLADE HOLDERS WHILE
INSTALLING, BALANCING THE BLADES, OR
CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT INSERT FOREIGN
OBJECTS BETWEEN ROTATING BLADES.
