5. HANGING THE FAN
REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow the
steps below to hang your fan properly. NOTE: This ceiling fan is supplied with two types of hanging assemblies; the standard ceiling installation using the downrod with ball and socket mounting and the "close-to-ceiling" installation. The "close-to-ceiling" installation is recommended in rooms with less than 8-foot ceilings or in areas where additional space is desired from the floor to the fan blades. When using the standard 6" downrod, the distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades will be approximately 10 inches. The "close-to­ceiling" installation reduce this distance to 8­inches. Once you have selected which mounting system you will use, proceed with the following instructions. Where necessary, each section of the instructions will note the different procedures to follow for the two types of mounting.
STANDARD CEILING INSTALLATION
1. Remove the canopy ring from the canopy. (Fig. 5)
2. Remove the hanger bracket from the canopy by loosening the four screws on the top of the canopy. Remove the two non-slotted screws and loosen the slotted screws. This will enable you to remove the hanger bracket. (Fig. 5)
Step 3. Secure the hanger bracket to the ceiling outlet box using screws and washers included with your outlet box. (Fig. 6)

12. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Turn on the power and check the operation of your fan. The pull chain controls the fan speed as follows:
1. 3-speed pull chain- it controls the fan speed as follows: 1 pull- High, 2 pulls- Medium, 3 pulls- Low, and 4 pulls- Off.
Speed settings for warm or cool weather depend on factors such as the room size, ceiling height, number of fans, and so on.
Fig. 23
Fig. 24
The slide switch controls directions: forward (switch left) or reverse (switch right).
NOTE: Wait for fan to stop before changing the setting of the slide switch.
Warm weather - (Forward) A downward airflow creates a cooling effect as shown in Fig. 23. This allows you to set your air conditioner on a warmer setting without affecting your comfort.
Cool weather - (Reverse) An upward airflow moves warm air off the ceiling area as shown in Fig. 24. This allows you to set your heating unit on a cooler setting without affecting your comfort.

13. TROUBLESHOOTING
Canfield
TM
12
Problem
Fan will not start.
Fan sounds noisy.
Solution
1. Check circuit fuses or breakers.
2. Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing. CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.
1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub is tight.
3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rubbing against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing. CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.
4. Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noise associated with a new fan disappear during this time.
5. If using an optional light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that the light bulb is also secure.
6. Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from solid-state variable speed controls. If you have installed this type of control, choose and install another type of control.
7. Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.
Fan wobble.
1. Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.
2. Most fan wobbling 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 this distance.(Fig. 21) Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. The distance deviation should be equal within 1/8".
3. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.
4. If the blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side) blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother operation. 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.
