PRODUCT MAINTENANCE
TROUBESHOOTING
WARNING: make sure the power is
off at the electrical panel box before
you attempt any repairs. Refer
to the section “Making Electrical
Connections.”
Here are some suggestions to help you maintain your fan.
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.)
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 discolouration or tarnishing. Do not
use water when cleaning. This could damage the motor, the
wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.
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.
There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently
lubricated sealed ball bearings.
-Check main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.
-Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing
-Check to make sure the dip switches from the transmitter and receiver are set to the same frequency
-Do not connect the fan with a wall mounted variable speed control (s).
-Make sure the dip switches are set correctly.
-Make sure all motor housing screws are snug
-Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub is tight
-Make sure wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall
of the switch housing
-Allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period. Most noises associated with a new fan
disappear during this time.
-If using a ceiling fan light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight.
Check that the light bulb is also secure.
-Make sure there is a short distance from the ceiling to the canopy. It should not touch
the ceiling.
-Make sure your ceiling box is secure and rubber isolator pads are used between
mounting bracket and outlet box.
