Attaching the
Fan Blades
Insert the blade through the slot cut-off in

the center flywheel, align the three screw
holes in the blade with the screw holes in
the flywheel and secure with the screws pro

vided (Figure 9).
Repeat for the remaining blades.

Blade Balancing
All blades are grouped by weight. Because nat-
ural woods vary in density, the fan may wobble
even though the blades are weight matched.
The following procedure should correct most
fan wobble. Check after each step.
Check that all blade screws are secure.
1.
Most fan wobble problems are caused when
2.
blade levels are unequal. Check this level by
selecting a point on the ceiling above the tip
of one of the blades. Measure from a point
on the center of each blade to the point on
the ceiling. Measure this distance as shown
in Figure 10. Rotate the fan until the next
blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat
for each blade. Measurement deviations
should be within 1/8”. Run the fan for 10
minutes.
Use the enclosed Bladed Balancing Kit if
3.
the blade wobble is still noticeable.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY,
DO NOT BEND THE BLADE HOLDERS WHILE
INSTALLING, BALANCING THE BLADES, OR
CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT INSERT FOREIGN
OBJECTS BETWEEN ROTATING BLADES.
