2. Tighten the two downrod setscrews. Some models have locknuts for the setscrew to ensure the setscrew
is fully seated against the down rod. It is necessary to back off the locknut until it contacts the setscrew
head prior to tightening the setscrew. When the setscrew is tightened against the downrod, the locknut
should then be tightened against the connector yoke. Repeat for both (Fig. 3).
3. Tighten the motor setscrew. Check the strength of the connection (pre-tightened at the factory) by
holding the motor housing in position and turning the downrod counter clockwise. If this connection
slips, retighten the motor setscrew and locknut. Follow the same procedure mentioned above for the
downrod setscrews.
4. Install ball into hanger bracket opening. The tab opposite of the hanger bracket opening should t in
slot on ball (Fig. 4).
5. Make wire connections (refer to section titled “Electrical Connections”).
6. Slide the canopy up and fasten to the hanger bracket with the four screws provided.

without causing a draft.
Troubleshooting
FAN WILL NOT START:
1. Check all fuses or circuit breakers. Replace if missing.
2. Turn off electrical power and check all wire connections to fan and in switch housing.
FAN IS NOISY
1.Use of standard light rheostat or continuously variable fan speed wall control will always cause harmonic
distortions or a huming noise. Many fan motors do not work quietly with solid state variable controls. If a
quiet wall control is desired use only 3-speed NOM approved wall controls.
2. Always allow a few days ‘break in’ time for any new fan at medium or high speed. Try to diagnose the
exact location of the noise by listening carefully from several sides (Blades, Motor, Light Kit, etc...). Fan
noise can come from a light kit.
3. Make sure all screws in the fan assembly and light kit are tight and properly threaded. If not, back out
and retighten. Tighten these screws at least once a year because they may loosen slowly over time and
cause a clicking noise.
4. Make sure the light it is securely fastened to the fan and all glass screws are nger tightened only. Fo not
tighten with pliers or a screw driver.
5. Make sure mounting bracket is installed snugly to junction box.
6. Make sure wire nuts in switch housing or canopy are not rattling against each other or against wall of
housing. Wrap with electrical tape if necessary.
7. Make sure the canopy is not touching the ceiling.
8. Assure that the screws fastening blade arm to motor are tight and the lock washers provided for that
purpose have been used.
FAN TURNS BUT DOES NOT MOVE MUCH AIR:
1. The fan may be running in reverse, so air is directed upward.
2. The room may contain items that obstruct the air ow.
3. The fan may be too small for size of the room.
FAN SHAKES OR WOBBLES
1. A small amount of movement is considered acceptable and should not be considered a defect.
2. Make sure mounting bracket is tight at junction box/ceiling with no movement at all. Tighten screws if
necessary.
3 Make sure all screws holding the blades to the blade arm and blade arm to motor are tight. Make sure
light kit/glass screws are tight.
4. Some fan movement is normal. however, interchanging an adjacent (side-by-side) blade pair may redistribute the weight and result in smooth operation.
5. Most fan wobble problems are caused when blade levels are unequal. Check this levle by selecting a
point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades. Measure this distance as shown in Figure 15.
Measurements deviation should always be within1/8”. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned
for measurement. Repeat for each blade.
Maintenance
1.The fan’s natural movements may cause some connections to loosen. A clicking or rattling noise is a
certain sign of loosening screws. Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice
a year, and tighten all screws as necessary. Make sure all screws attaching the glass to the tter on the
light kit are nger tight. Do not use a screw driver or pliers to tighten glass screws.
2.Clean your fan periodically. Use only a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution. Never use
solvents. Dust with a soft cloth or brush. Metal nishes are nished with a lacquer to prevent tarnishing
3.You will never need to oil your fan. Its permanently sealed bearings will provide silent, trouble free
operation for many years.
4. Make sure the power is turned off at the main fuse or circuit panel before you attempt any repairs.
