1. Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections and screws may become loose.
Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments at least twice a year to make
sure they are secure.
2. Clean the fan periodically to help maintain the appearance. Do not use water when cleaning.
This could damage the motor, or possibly cause electric shock.
3. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish.
4. There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated bearings.
If you have difficulty operating your new ceiling fan, it may be the result of incorrect assembly,
installation, or wiring. In some cases, these installation errors may be mistaken for defects.
If you experience any problems, please check the following trouble shooting guide. If a solution
to the problem cannot be found, please consult with a licensed electrician. Do not attempt any
electrical repairs by yourself. For your own safety, turn off power at fuse box or circuit breaker
before trouble shooting your fan.
Trouble
Suggested Remedy
Fan does not start
1. Check main and branch circuit fuses or circuit breakers.
2. Check wire connections as performed in Step #2 of installation.
Caution: Make sure main power is turned off
！
3. If the fan still will not start, contact a licensed electrician. Do not attempt to
troubleshoot internal electrical connections by yourself.
Fan sounds noisy
1. Check to make sure all screws in the motor housing are snug (not over
tightened).
2. Check to make sure the screws which attach the fan blade mount to the
motor are tight.
3. Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from Solid State Variable Speed
Controls.
4. Allow a “break-in” period of 24 hours. Most noise associated with a new fan
will disappear after this period.
Fan wobbles
The following procedures should eliminate most of the wobble. Check for
wobble after each step.
1. Check that all blades are screwed firmly into the blade mounts.
2. Check that the blades are screwed firmly into the blade mounts.
3. Check that all set screws attaching the motor to the downrod are tight.
4. Make sure that the mounting bracket is tightened securely to the ceiling.
5. If blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side)
blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother operation.
