12. OPERATING YOUR FAN
NOTE:
Wait for fan to stop before changing
the setting of the slide switch.
Turn on the power and check the operation of
your fan. The pull chain controls the fan speed
as follows: 1 pull- High, 2 pulls-Medium, 3
pulls- Low, and 4 pulls-Off.
Light pull chain it controls the light in "ON" or
"OFF".
Speed settings for warm or cool weather
depend on factors such as the room size,
ceiling height, number of fans and so on.
The slide switch controls directions: forward
(switch left) or reverse (switch right)
Warm weather - (Forward) A downward
airflow creates a cooling effect as shown in
Fig. 17. This allows you to set your air
conditioner on a warmer setting without
affecting your comfort.
Cool weather - (Reverse) An upward airflow
moves warm air off the ceiling area as shown
in Fig. 18. This allows you to set your heating
unit on a cooler setting without affecting
your comfort.
Here are some suggestions to help you maintain your fan
1. Because of the fan's natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check the
support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Make sure they are
secure. (It is not necessary to remove fan from ceiling.)
2. Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the years. Use only a soft
brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish. The plating is sealed with a lacquer to
minimize discoloration or tarnishing. Do not use water when cleaning. This could damage the
motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.
3. You can apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood blades for additional protection and
enhanced beauty. Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.
4. There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated bearings.
