Step 10. Orientation of fan blades. Note that the Malibu Star

fan only rotates in the clockwise direction (when looking up

at the fan on the ceiling). As you face the motor a fan blade

extending from the motor to you will have its leading edge on

your right.

Step 11. Use the allen wrench provided

to loosen the four (4) allen screws on

each of the blade clamps but do not

remove completely. Insert each blade

with the proper orientation (as described

in previous Step 9).

NOTE: Before securing the fan blade

adjust the 'pitch' or angle of the blade

for either upward or downward air flow,

as described below in Step 11.

Step 12. The pitch angle should be no more than 15° upward

or downward. Each blade must be adjusted to the same pitch

angle, otherwise the rotating fan will wobble. Tighten the four

(4) allen screws on each blade clamp. Check after tightening

to be sure they are all tight.

CAUTION! DO NOT attempt to

adjust the tension on wire holding the

silk cloth in the blade. These have all

been factory adjusted.
