Checking Oil
Ceiling fans work in two directions: downdraft 
(counterclockwise rotation) and updraft (clockwise 
rotation). To change the direction of air ow, turn the 
fan off and let it come to a complete stop. Slide the 
reversing switch to the opposite position. Restart the 
fan. Move the directional lever down for down draft. 
Move the directional lever up for up draft.
Attach the pull chain pendant to the fan pull chain. 
The fan pull chain controls power to the fan. The pull 
chain has four settings in sequence: High, Medium, 
Low, and Off. Pull the chain slowly to change 
settings. Release slowly to prevent the chain from 
recoiling into the blades.
Fan Operation
Updraft (clockwise rotation) 
creates a more indirect airow. 
Updraft airow is great for moving 
warm air downward.
Downdraft (counterclockwise 
rotation) creates a direct breeze 
and maximum cooling effect.
Check oil level immediately after lling the reservoir and every 1 to 5 years 
thereafter. To check oil, bend an ordinary pipe cleaner into 1/2” long hook 
and dip it into the oil reservoir.
If the oil touches the end of the pipe cleaner, the fan has ample oil. If it does 
not touch, add SAE 10 non-detergent oil slowly until it touches the  
pipe cleaner
