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
brackets, and blade attachments
twice a year. Make sure they are se-
cure. (It is not necessary to remove
the fan from the ceiling.)
2. Clean your fan periodically to help
maintain its new appearance over the
years. Do not use water when clean-
ing, this could damage the motor, or
the wood or possibly cause an electri-
cal shock. 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.
Warning - Make sure the power is off
before cleaning your fan.
3. You can apply a light coat of furniture
polish to the wood for additional protec-
tion 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
sealed ball bearings.

connections,
Fan sounds noisy
Solution
1.
Check the main and branch circuit fuses or breakers

connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch
housing.
1.
Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
2.

motor hub are tight.
3.
Make sure the wire nut connections are not rattling against each
other or the interior wall of the switch housing.

Allow a 24-hour "breaking in" period. Most noises associated with
a new fan disappear during this time.
5.
If using the Ceiling Fan light kit, make sure the tensioners or
screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that the light bulb
is also secure.
6.
Make sure the canopy is a short distance from the ceiling.
It should not touch the ceiling.

Make sure your outlet box is secure and rubber isolator pads
were used between the mounting bracket and outlet box.

Make sure pull chains are not vibrating against glass or housing.

FORE YOU ATTEMPT TO MAKE ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION,
