CARE AND CLEANING

Periodically it may be necessary to re-tighten blade to blade arm screws or blade arm to motor screws to prevent clicking or humming sound
during operation. This is especially true in climates with broad temperature and humidity ranges.
When dusting the blades, you must support the blade to prevent bending - no pressure should be applied to the blades. If you experience
any flaws in the operation of your fan, please check the following points.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM
Fan Will Not Start 1. Check main and branch circuit breakers and/or fuses.
2. Check line wire connections to fan housing wiring. Make sure forward/reverse switch is set to one or the other
position, not stuck in between.
3. Check to make sure the dip switches from the transmitter and receiver are set to the same frequency.
Fan Sounds Noisy 1. Check and make sure that all screws in motor housing are snug (but not over tight).
2. Check that the screws securing blade arms to the motor are tight.
3. Check that wire connectors in switch housing are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch
housing.
4. Check that all glassware is finger tight and that bulb(s) are well held in the sockets, if a light kit is used.
5. Check that the canopy is firmly attached to hanging bracket and not vibrating against ceiling.
Fan Wobbles 1. Check that all blades are firmly screwed into blade arms. Check that all blade arms are firmly secure to the
motor.
2. Check to make sure that light kit (if present) is firmly attached to switch housing and that all glassware and
shades are fastened properly. Wobble can also result from even the smallest deviations in distance from blade
tip to blade tip.
3. If measurements from blade tip to blade tip are not equal, loosen screws connecting blade to blade arm one at a
time and adjust blade(s) so that distances are equal.
4. Interchanging adjacent blades may redistribute mass and result in smoother operation. Blade arms can be bent
slightly to restore same pitch to all blades if a blade is different than the other blades when viewed edge on.
5. Most wobble can be traced to a loose electrical box or mounting bracket. Make sure these are tight and the ball
is completely seated in the bracket.
6. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.
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.
Remote Control 1. Do not connect the fan with a wall mounted variable speed control(s).
Malfunction. 2. Make sure the dip switches are set correctly.
