Care of Your Fan Troubleshooting
PROBLEM SOLUTION
Here are some suggestions to help you
maintain your fan.
1. 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.)
2. Clean your fan periodically to help
maintain its new appearance over the
years. Do not use water when cleaning.
Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to
avoid scratching the nish. The plating
is sealed with a lacquer to minimize
discoloration or tarnishing.
3. You can apply a light coat of furniture
polish to the wood for additional
protection and enhanced beauty. Cover
small scratches with a light application of
shoe polish.
4. There is no need to oil your fan. The
motor has permanently lubricated sealed
ball bearings.
1. Check main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.
2. Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire
connections in the switch housing.
1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blades bracket to the
motor hub are tight.
3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rattling against each
other or the interior wall of the switch housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.
4. Allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period. Most noises associated
with a new fan disappear during this time.
5. If using the ceiling fan light kit, make sure the screws securing
the glassware are tight. Check that the light bulb is also secure.
6. Make sure there is a short distance from the ceiling to the
canopy. It should not touch the ceiling.
7. Make sure your ceiling box is secure and rubber isolator pads
are used between mounting bracket and outlet box.
