Green – ground wire (on bracket or downrod). 2. If fan and light are to be connected to the same circuit, black and blue wires can both be connected to house circuit black wire.
BLADE ATTACHMENT BLADE ATTACHMENT: 1. Place fiber washer on screw. Insert this assembly through the blade and start the screw into the blade arm. Repeat this procedure without tightening the screw until all 3 screws have been started into the blade arm (Fig. 1). NOTE: Fans that have painted finishes may be packed with gaskets that can be used between the blade arm and blade to help prevent a clicking noise that may develop if blade screws loosen over time. 2.

DO NOT use water when cleaning your ceiling fan. It could damage the motor or the wood blades, and/or create the possibility of electrical shock. NOTE: Periodically it may be necessary to re-tighten blade screws to prevent clicking or humming sound during operation.
