Finishing the Fan
Installation
STANDARD CEILING MOUNTING
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
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 counter-
clockwise to lock in place.
4. You may now proceed to attaching the
fan blades.

Attaching the Fan
Blades
1.
Attach a blade to the blade bracket using the
screws supplied and tightened firmly.(Figure 11)
2.
Attach the blade assembly to the fan motor
housing by inserting the blade assembly into
slots in the side of the fan motor housing using
the screws supplied and tightened firmly. (Figure
11)
3.
Repeat steps 1 & 2 for the remaining blades.
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 screws are secure.
two
mounting
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 12.
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.
