DYNAMIC BLADE BALANCING KIT FOR CEILING FANS
1. Make sure that all blades are firmly screwed into the blade brackets.
2. Make sure that all blade brackets are firmly secured to the motor housing
.
3. By looking up at the fan from below, check and be certain that none of the blade brackets 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. All distances should be the same.
Operate the fan ten minutes. 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:
●
Turn the fan off. Select one blade and place the plastic clip on it, where the plastic clip locates is halfway between
the blade bracket and the blade tip on the edge of the blade.Caution: The plastic clip should be placed on the
windward edge of the blade for fear of clip’s flying off.
●
Turn the fan on (set the speed that causes the wobble most). Observe if the wobble is better or worse. Turn the fan
off and move the clip to the next blade. Do the same for all blades and note 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 centerline and most close to the
clip. Peel the paper off of the back of the weight and press firmly to ensure that 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.
