9. Blade Assembly.
WARNING
: To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury,
DO NOT use power tools to assemble the blades. If
screws are overtightened, blades may crack and
break.
Time Saver
: Washers for blade screws can be set on
each blade screw prior to installing blades.
Locate 15 blade attachment screws and washers in
one of the hardware packs. Hold blade arm up to
blade and align holes. Insert 3 blade attachment
screws (along with washers) with fingers first and
then tighten screws securely with a Phillips
screwdriver. Repeat procedure for the remaining
blades.
Remove blade arm screws and lock washers from
underside of motor. If plastic motor locks are installed
with blade arm screws, discard plastic motor locks
(
save blade arm screws and lock washers to secure blade
arms
). Align blade arm holes with motor screw holes
and attach blade arm with lock washers and blade
arm screws. Before securing screws permanently,
repeat this procedure with remaining blade arms.
Secure all screws.
NOTE
: Tighten blade arm screws twice a year.

10. Testing Your Fan.
It is recommended that you test fan before finalizing
installation. Restore power from circuit box and light
switch (if applicable). Test fan speeds with the pull
chain. Start at the OFF position (no blade movement).
First pull will set the fan to HI. Second pull will set the
fan to MEDIUM. Third pull will set the fan to LOW.
Fourth pull will again set the fan to the OFF setting
(
diagram 1
). If fan does not function, please refer to
"Troubleshooting" section to solve any issues before
contacting Customer Service.
Turn fan completely off
before
moving the reverse
switch. Set reverse switch to recirculate air depending
on the season:
- DOWN position in summer (
diagram 2
)
- UP position in winter (
diagram 3
)
A ceiling fan will allow you to raise your thermostat
setting in summer and lower your thermostat setting in
winter without feeling a difference in your comfort.
Important
: Reverse switch must be set either
completely UP
or
completely DOWN
for fan to function. If
the reverse switch is set in the
middle
position
(
diagram 4
), fan will not operate.
Attach pull chain extension supplied or custom pull
chain extension (sold separately) to end of the pull
chain.
