holders are bent and that none of the fan blades are out of position. A correction

can be made by bending the fan blade holder back into position gently.
4. Use a measuring tape to check the blade tracking. Put yard tape up against
the ceiling vertically and against the outside leading edge of a fan blade. Note
the distance of the ceiling. Turn the blades slowly and carefully by hand to check
the remaining blades. If the fan blades are not in alignment, the blade holder
may be gently bent up or down to be in line with other fan blades.
5. Please take note that the above-mentioned method of fan blade correction is
not applicable to all fan blade holders.
After following all steps and if the wobbling problem is not solved, a dynamic balancing
kit is needed to rectify the problem. Please follow the procedures listed below:
• Turn on the ceiling fan and adjust the speed control (usually high speed) setting to
the speed which created the greatest wobble.
• Turn off the ceiling fan, select one of the blades, and place the balancing clip on it,
halfway between the fan blade holder and the tip of the fan blade.
• Turn on the ceiling fan, and see if the wobble improves or worsens. Turn off the fan
again and move the balancing clip to another fan blade and test again. Repeat this
process with all fan blades and then note the fan blade that causes least wobble.
• Move the balancing clip to the fan blade which shows the least wobble or shows the
most improvement. Move the balancing clip in and outward on this fan blade and
improvement.
• Remove the balancing clip and stick the balancing weight on top of the fan blade,
along the center line near the point where the clip was positioned.
Caution: stay clear of fan blades, if the balancing clip for any reason is not secure
may cause injury(s).
