PROBLEM
Fan wobbles
Light does not work
All blades are weighed and grouped by weight. Natural
•
woods vary in density which could cause the fan to
wobble even though all blades are weight matched.
The following procedures should eliminate most of the
•
wobble. Check for wobble after each step.
Check that all blades are screwed firmly into blade
•
brackets.
Check that all blade brackets are tightened securely to
•
motor.
Make sure that canopy and hanger bracket are
•
tightened securely to ceiling junction box and junction
box is mounted firmly to ceiling joist.
•
Most wobble problems of fans are caused when blades
are not in equal level. To check the blade levels, select
a point on the ceiling above the tip of any blade.
Measure the distance from the ceiling to the blade tip,
to an accuracy of 1/8" (3 mm). Rotate the blades until
the next blade is in the measuring position. Repeat
measurement for each blade. If all blade levels are not
equal, you can adjust blade levels by the following
procedure. To adjust a blade tip down, insert a washer
(not supplied) between the blade and blade bracket
at the screw closest to the motor. To adjust a blade tip
up, insert washer (not supplied) between the blade and
blade bracket at the two screws farthest from the
motor.
Interchanging two adjacent blades could
•
redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother
operation.
Check the blue wire from fan to make sure it is
•
connected to hot wire from supply wire coming out of
the ceiling.
Check for loose or disconnected wires in fan switch
•
housing.
Check for loose or disconnected wires in light kit.
•
•
Check for faulty light bulbs.
