BALANCING / WOBBLYING TROUBLE SHOOTING
Please note that all ceiling fans are not the same, even in the same model—some may move more or less than
others. Movement of a couple of centimetres is quite acceptable and does not suggest the fan will fall down.
Even though all blades are weighted and grouped by weight, it is impossible to eliminate wobble altogether and
should not be considered a problem. Ceiling fan tend to move during operation because they are not generally
rigidly mounted
Y ou may do the following to reduce wobbling:
1) Check all the blade mounting screws are tight and secure.
2) Wobbling problems may result from inconsistent blade level. To check blade level, measure the distance
from each blade tip to the ceiling.
Note: If measurements are inconsistent: check blade mount screws are not over tightened or loose
which can cause the blade tips not to be level.
3) Blade tracking may be checked simply by use of a household ruler as shown in the below Figure18.
Place the ruler vertically against the ceiling. Line up the outside edge of one of the blades of the ceiling fan
and note the measurement on the ruler. Turn the blade slowly by hand to check that the other remaining
blades match up to the same point on the ruler. If the blades are not aligned it may mean that a blade may
be out of shape or warped or the screws securing the blades to the motor are not evenly tightened or are
too loose.

CARE & CLEANING

Periodic cleaning of your ceiling fan is the only maintenance required. Use a soft brush or lint free cloth to avoid
scratching the paint/plated finish. Please make sure the fan is not operating when cleaning.

Do not use water when cleaning your ceiling fan. It could damage the motor or the blades and create the
possibility of an electrical shock.
