Blade Assembly; Testing Your Fan - Craftmade OPXL52 Guia De Instalacion

8. Blade Assembly.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury,
DO NOT use power tools to assemble the blades. If
screws are overtightened, blades may crack and break.
Time Saver: Washers for blade screws can be set on
each blade screw prior to installing blades.
Locate 15 blade attachment screws and washers in
hardware pack. Hold blade arm up to blade and align
holes. Insert 3 blade attachment screws (along with
washers) with fingers first and then tighten screws
securely with a Phillips screwdriver. Repeat for the
remaining blades.
Remove blade arm screws and lock washers from
underside of motor. If plastic motor locks are installed
with blade arm screws, discard plastic motor locks (save
blade arm screws and lock washers to secure blade arms).
Align blade arm holes with motor screw holes and
attach blade arm with lock washers and blade arm
screws. Before securing screws permanently, repeat
with remaining blade arms. Securely tighten all screws.
Note: Tighten blade arm screws twice a year.

9. Testing Your Fan.

It is recommended that you test fan before finalizing
installation. Restore power from circuit box and light
switch (if applicable). Test fan speeds with pull chain.
(diagram 1) Start at the OFF position (no blade
movement). First pull will set the fan to HI. Second pull
will set the fan to MEDIUM. Third pull will set the fan to
LOW. Fourth pull will again set the fan to the OFF
setting. If fan does not function, please refer to
"Troubleshooting" section to solve any issues before
contacting Customer Service.
Turn fan completely off before moving the reverse
switch. Set reverse switch to recirculate air depending
on the season:
- DOWN position in summer (diagram 2)
- UP position in winter (diagram 3)
A ceiling fan will allow you to raise your thermostat
setting in summer and lower your thermostat setting
in winter without feeling a difference in your comfort.
Important: Reverse switch must be set either
completely DOWN or completely UP for fan to function.
If the reverse switch is set in the middle position
(diagram 4), fan will not operate.
NOTE: Do NOT remove weatherproof cover from
reverse switch.
Attach pull chain extension supplied or custom pull
chain extension (sold separately) to the end of the pull
chain.
