Attaching the Fan
Blades
Note : The blade side which marked
with " This Side Up" must toward the
ceiling after it is installed.
1. Insert the blade through the slot cut-
off in the center flywheel , align the
three screw holes in the blade with the
screw holes in the flywheel and secure
with screws provided (Figure 14).
2. Repeat for the remaining blades.
All blades are grouped by weight.
Because plastic blades vary in density,
the fan may wobble even though the
blades are weight matched.
The following procedure should correct
most fan wobble. Check after each step.
1. Check that all blade and blade
bracket screws are secure.
2.
Most fan wobble problems are
caused when blade levels are unequal.
Check this level by selecting a point on
the ceiling above the tip of one of the
blades. Measure from a point on the
center of each blade to the point on the
ceiling. Measure this distance as shown
in Figure 15. Rotate the fan until the next
blade is positioned for measurement.
Repeat for each blade. Measurements
