Инструкция по эксплуатации
The Modern Forms Downrod is a structural component designed to position your ceiling fan at an optimal height. It does not have operational controls itself.

Обслуживание
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your downrod, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Уборка: Periodically wipe the downrod with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or polishes that could damage the satin brass finish.
- Инспекция: Annually inspect the downrod and its connections to the fan and ceiling for any signs of loosening, wear, or damage. Tighten any loose screws or connections.

Поиск неисправностей
Most issues related to a downrod are typically installation-related. If you experience problems, consider the following:
- Колебание вентилятора: If the ceiling fan wobbles excessively, ensure the downrod is securely fastened to both the fan motor and the ceiling mounting bracket. Check that all set screws and pins are correctly installed and tightened. An improperly balanced fan blade can also cause wobble; refer to your fan's manual for balancing instructions.
- Несовместимая посадка: If the downrod does not fit your fan, double-check that your fan is a Modern Forms Smart Fan or WAC Smart Fan. This downrod is specifically designed for these brands.
- Damaged Downrod: If the downrod appears bent, dented, or otherwise damaged, do not install it. Contact customer support for a replacement.
