Troubleshooting  

 

Problem

Fan will not start

Fans/Light Turn On
and Off intermittently
Fan Sounds Noisy

Fan Wobble.

Solution

1. Check to make sure the wall switch is turned on
2. Check circuit fuses or breakers

    Caution!

 Make sure the power is turned off before performing the following steps;

3. Remove canopy and check wire connections

NOTE: 

All blade sets are grouped by weight. Because wood and plastic blades vary in density, the fan may

wobble even though blades are matched.
1. Make sure all blade attachment screws are tight.
2. Make sure Outlet box is secured to building structure, if necessary use the wood screws provided to further
    Secure outlet box to joist.
3. Make sure Hanger Bracket is secure to the outlet box, screws are tight.
4. Use the balancing kit provided if the wobble is excessive (follow instructions included with balancing kit).

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.
