INSTALLATION OF HANGER BRACKET:
1) To use Four Expansion Setscrew to install the hanger bracket firmly. (fig 1)
2) Install the ‘J’ hook onto the concrete ceiling and fasten firmly. Note the
place of ‘J’ hook as (fig 2)
fig 1 fig 2
*If you are installing a hanger bracket with hanger wheel, skip to the next step.

*If you have installed a hanger bracket, skip to
page 5
1) To use Two Expansion Setscrew to
install the mounting bracket onto the
concrete ceiling and fasten firmly, or
use Two Wood Screws to wood
ceiling. (fig 3)
2) Remove the R Pin, Nut and Cross Pin
on the hanger bracket and take out
the hanger wheel. (fig 4)
3) Put the hanger wheel into the
mounting bracket, then align the
hanger bracket hole with the hole of
the hanger wheel and then install
back the Cross Pin, tighten the nut
and insert the R Pin . (fig 5)

1) Remove the ‘R’ pin and Cross pin
from the downrod. Install the
canopy and housing cover through
the downrod then thread the wires
through the downrod, insert the
downrod into the connector. (fig 3).
2) Loosen the two setscrews in the
downrod support. Install back the
Cross pin and secured with the ‘R’
pin. The ‘R’ pin must be properly
installed to prevent the Cross pin
from working loose. (fig 4)

HANGING OF CEILING FAN:
2) Attach the safety wire (cord) to the expansion ‘J’ hook for safety
purposes. Tighten the nuts firmly. (fig 9-a / fig 9-b)
fig 8-a fig 8-b
fig 9-a fig 9-b
1) Carefully lift the fan and assembly into hanger bracket which is
attached to the outlet box. Ensure the rod ball’s groove is lined up
with tab on the hanger bracket. (fig 8-a / fig 8-b)

1) Total six colors of wires connected from the top of the motor:
* White –neutral wire for lightkit
* Blue –live wire for lightkit
* Black(L1), Red(L2), Brown(L3) –live wire for fan
* Green –ground wire
2) Plug the connector from the motor into the remote control receiver: 3
Pin Connector to the 3 Pin Socket & 2 Pin Connector to the 2 Pin Socket
(Do not connect 2 Pin Connector for fan without lightkit).
3) Connect motor, hanger bracket, hanger ball, Green wires and remote
control receiver wires to AC wires: White to Neutral, Red to Live, Green
to Ground.
4) Earth wire is longer than safety cord by 60mm and more. When the
failure of the suspension system occurs, the current carrying conductor
taut before the earthling conductor and the body of the fan assembly is
still effectively earthed.

INSTALLATION OF CANOPY:
fig 12
1) After done up the wiring, attach the canopy to the hanger bracket by
pushing up and twist to locate screws in the two key holes. (fig 11-a /
fig 11-b)
2) Tighten the two screws firmly.
INSTALLATION OF FAN BLADES:
1) Remove the blade screws from

REMOTE CONTROL MANUAL (Wiring Diagram):
1. This manual is to use for the controller of ceiling fan and lightkit.
2. Disconnect power supply before wiring.
3. Install the Receiver inside the canopy of ceiling fan to ensure proper
protection.
Adopt RF wireless digit emission technique, biunique controlled, coincident code rate
is less than one millionth.
Receiver can be controlled by any angles of the Emitter in prescriptive space and
unrestricted by direction.

11
REMOTE CONTROL MANUAL (BUTTON FUNCTION):
IMPORTANT:
1. Insert two size AAA alkaline batteries by matching and on the
batteries to the diagram inside the battery compartment of the remote
control.
2. Steps to pair the Emitter and Receiver:
i. Turn ‘ON’ the supply power.
ii. Within 30 seconds, press and hold the Emitter button ‘ ‘ for 5
seconds until hearing a long ‘beep’ sound.
iii. Pairing successfully (learning mode is not acceptable after turn ‘ON’
the supply power for more than 30 seconds).
3. When the Emitter cannot control the Receiver, check surrounding for any
existence of similar remote control products. Some interference might
occur when similar radio waves being transmitted.
4. Replace the batteries when found low in voltage as it will affected the
sensitivity of the Emitter.
5. Always remove the batteries from the Emitter when leaving unused for
long period of time.

MAINTENANCE TIPS:
1. Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may be loose.
To check the support connections, brackets and blades attachments 2
times a year. Make sure they are all secured (It is not necessary to
dismantle the entire fan from ceiling).
2. Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its appearance over the
years. Do not use water when cleaning, use only a soft brush or lint-free
cloth to avoid scratching the finish. The plating is coated with a lacquer to
minimize the ratio of discoloration or tarnishing which would damage the
motor or the wood or possibly cause an electric shock.
3. You can apply a light coat of furniture varnishing to the wood for
additional protection and enhance its beauty. Surface scratched mark can
be touch-up with a light coat of shoe polish.
4. There is no need to oil your fan. The motor is created with lubricated
sealed ball bearings.
5. User are advised to contact the fan supplier to conduct regular
examination of the fan suspension system at least once in every two
years.
