PREFACE
Your ceiling fan may sometimes have wobbling problems when operating due to irregularity in the
blades or the blade holders. Improper assembly in the mounting system
may cause some additional
problems. This balancing kit can be used to fix wobbling problems.
DYNAMIC BLADE BALANCING KIT FOR CEILING FANS
1. Make sure that all blades are firmly screwed into the blade holder.
2. Make sure that all blade holders are firmly secured to the motor housing and check that the pitch of blade
holders
are all the same.
.
3. By looking up at the fan from below, check and be certain that none of the blade holders are bent and that
none of the blades are out of position.
4. Use a yardstick to check the blade tracking. Put the yardstick up against the ceiling vertically and against the
outside leading edge of a blade. Note the distance of the edge of blade to the ceiling. Carefully turn the
blades slowly by hand to check the remaining blades. If the blade is not in alignment, the blade holder may
be gently bent up or down to be in line with the other blades.
After following all the steps and if the wobbling problem is not solved, a dynamic balancing needs
to be done by balancing kit. Follow the procedure listed below:
●
halfway between the blade holder and the blade tip on the edge of the blade.
Caution: The plastic clip should be placed on the windward edge of the blade to avoid
●
Turn the fan on (use the speed that causes the wobble most). Observe if the wobble is better or
on which blade the clip reduces the wobble most. Place the clip on the blade which showed the
most improvement. Move the clip inward and outward on this blade and operate the fan to find
the position where the clip gives the most improvement.
Caution: Stay clear of the blades. If the clip, for any reason, is not secure, injury could result.
●
Once the exact position is determined, place a weight on the top of the blade, on its centreline and
it is securely attached to the blade. Remove the clip.
Caution: Clean the surface of fan blade before placing the balancing weight so that the balancing
weight can be firmly attached on it.
