13. Troubleshooting
Problem
Fan will not start.
Fan sounds noisy.
Fan wobble.
Remote control
malfunction:
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.
3. Check to make sure the dip switches from the transmitter and receiver are set to the same frequency.
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
light bulb is also
secure.
6.
7. Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling.
It should not touch the ceiling.
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. 23) 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.

Do not connect the fan with a wall mounted variable speed control (s)
1. Do not connect the fan with a wall mounted variable speed control(s).
2. Make sure the dip switches are set correctly.
