SAFETY RULES

1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has been turned off at

the circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning.

2. All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC)

and local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by

a qualified licensed electrician.

3. WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only the two steel

screws (and lock washers) provided with the outlet box for mounting to

the outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly used for the support of

lighting fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be

replaced, consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted and capable

of reliably supporting a minimum of 50 pounds. Use only CUL Listed outlet

boxes marked “FOR FAN SUPPORT”.

The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 feet clearance from the

trailing edge of the blades to the floor.

Do not operate reversing switch while fan blades are in motion. Fan must be

turned off and blades stopped before reversing blade direction.

Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR

PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT FAN TO OUTLET BOX MARKED

“ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT”.

To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be cautious when

working around or cleaning the fan.

Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fan blades. A dry dust cloth

or lightly dampened cloth will be suitable for most cleaning.

After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should be turned upward and

pushed carefully up into outlet box. The wires should be spread apart with the

grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding conductor on one side of the outlet

box.

Electrical diagrams are reference only. Light kits that are not packed with the fan must

be Listed and marked suitable for use with the model fan you are installing. Switches

must be General Use Switches. Refer to the Instructions packaged with the light kits

and switches for proper assembly.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, DO NOT BEND THE

BLADE BRACKETS (ALSO REFERRED TO AS FLANGES) DURING

ASSEMBLY OR AFTER INSTALLATION. DO NOT INSERT OBJECTS IN THE

PATH OF THE BLADES.

MOUNTING OPTIONS

If there isn't an existing UL (cUL for Canadian Installation) listed

mounting box, then read the following instructions. Disconnect the

power by removing fuses or turning off circuit breakers.

Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use

appropriate fasteners and building materials. The outlet box and

its support must be able to fully support the moving weight of the

fan (at least 50 lbs). Do not use plastic outlet boxes.

Figures 1, 2 and 3 are examples of different ways to mount the

outlet box.

NOTE: If you are installing the ceiling fan on a sloped (vaulted)

ceiling, you may need a longer downrod to maintain proper

clearance between the tip of the blade and the ceiling. A minimum

clearance of 12" is suggested for optimal operation.

NOTE: Depending on the location you have selected for

installation, you may need to purchase and install a "Joist Hanger"

for the support of the outlet box. Make sure the joist hanger you

purchase has been designed for use with ceiling fans. (Fig. 4)

HANGING THE FAN

REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow the steps below to hang your fan

properly.

NOTE: This ceiling fan is supplied with two types of hanging assemblies; the

standard ceiling installation using the downrod with ball and socket mounting and

the “close-to-ceiling” installation. The “close-to-ceiling” installation is recommended

in rooms with less than 8-feet ceilings or in areas where additional space is

desired from the floor to the fan blades.

HANGING THE FAN

Standard Ceiling Installation

Step 1. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through the center hole in the ceiling hanger

bracket as shown in Fig. 5.

Step 2. Secure the hanger bracket to the ceiling outlet box with the screws and

washers provided with your outlet box.

Step 3. Remove the hitch pin, lock pin and set screws from the top of the motor assembly.

Step 4. Route wires exiting from the top of the fan motor through the coupling

cover, canopy and then through the ball/downrod (Fig. 6)

Step 5. Align the holes at the bottom of the downrod with the holes in the collar on top

of the motor housing (Fig. 6). Carefully insert the hitch pin through the holes in the collar

and downrod. Be careful not to jam the pin against the wiring inside the downrod.

Insert the locking pin through the hole near the end of the hitch pin until it snaps into

its locked position, as noted in the circle inset of Fig. 6.

Step 6. Tighten two set screws on top of the fan motor firmly (Fig. 6).

Step 7. Place downrod ball into the hanger bracket socket (Fig 7).

Rotate the entire assembly until the "Check Tab" has dropped into the "Registration Slot"

and seats ﬁrmly. (Fig. 7)

The entire motor assembly should not rotate (left or right) when seated properly.

WARNING: Failure to reattach the cross pin and seat the "Check Tab" can cause the fan to

fall from the ceiling during operation. Take special care to make sure this pin is reattached.

HANGING THE FAN

Close-To-Ceiling Installation

Step 1. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through the center hole

in the ceiling hanger bracket as shown in Fig. 5.

Step 2. Remove the decorative canopy cover from the canopy

by turning canopy cover counterclockwise (Fig. 8A).

Step 3. Secure the hanger bracket to the ceiling outlet box

with the screws and washers provided with your outlet box.

Step 4. Remove three of the six screws and lock washers

(every other one) from the collar of top motor (Fig. 8B)

Step 5. Place the ceiling canopy and the gasket over the collar

at the top of the motor. Align the mounting holes with the holes

in the motor and fasten using the screws and lock washers

provided (Fig. 8B).

Step 6. Tighten the mounting screws securely (Fig. 8B).

WARNING: Failure to completely tighten the three screws in

step 4 could result in fan loosening and possibly falling.

Step 7. Hang the fan on the hook of the hanger bracket.

Be certain that the canopy is fully locked into hook as

shown in Fig. 9. This will allow you to make the electrical

connections.

INSTALLATION OF SAFETY SUPPORT

(Required for Canadian installation ONLY)

A safety support cable is provided to help prevent the ceiling fan from faIling.

Please install it as follows:

Step 1. Attach the provided wood screw and washers to the ceiling joist next to

the mounting bracket but do not tighten. (Fig. 10)

Step 2. Adjust the length of the safety cable to reach the screw and washers by

pulling the extra cable through the cable clamp until the overall length is correct.

Put the end of the cable back through the cable clamp, forming a loop at the end

of the cable. Tighten the cable clamp securely. Put the loop in the end of the

safety cable over the wood screw and under the washer. Tighten the wood screw

securely.

NOTE: Although the safety support cable is required for Canadian installations

only, it’s a good idea to make the attachment with any installation.
