□ Check the support connections, brackets, and blade

attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure.

Because of the fan’s natural movement, some

connections may become loose over time. It is not

necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling.

□ Clean your fan periodically. Use only a soft brush or

lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the ﬁnish. The plating is

sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or

tarnishing.

shoe polish.

panel box before you attempt any repairs. Refer to step 8

“Making the electrical connections” on page 11.

□ Check the line wire connections to the fan.

□ Make sure all screws on fan motor assembly and fan guards are snug.

□ Allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this

time.

□ 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.
