  George ShannonJul 29, 2025
  Excessive wobbling in your Fanimation Fan can stem from several issues: * Loose setscrews in the downrod support. Ensure both are tightened securely. * A loose setscrew in the downrod/hanger ball assembly. Tighten it. * Loose screws securing the fan blade to the motor assembly. Check and tighten these screws. * An unsecured hanger bracket or ceiling timber batten. Tighten the hanger bracket screws and secure the outlet box. * Fan blades that are out of balance. Use the balancing kit provided with your fan.

  If your Fanimation Fan is making unusual noises, consider the following: 1. Ensure the blades are properly attached to the fan. 2. Check for loose screws in the motor housing and tighten them (but don't overtighten). 3. Verify that the screws securing the fan blade to the motor assembly are tight. Remember to turn off the main power before checking! 4. See if the lower housing support set screw is loose and tighten it securely.
