General
Your Emerson ceiling fan comes equipped
with a remote control transmitter and a
remote control receiver. This remote con-
trol systems is designed to control your
ceiling fan speed, airflow direction, and
light intensity.
NOTE: An optional SW113 Wall Control
(not supplied) may also be used with
the remote control receiver supplied
with your ceiling fan.
IMPORTANT
This Owner’s Manual is divided into
two sections. The first section,
REMOTE CONTROL PROCEDURES,
describes how to install the 9-volt alka-
line battery (not supplied) in the remote
control transmitter, and how to set the
operating frequency of the transmitter
and receiver. These instructions must
be performed prior to the installation of
the ceiling fan as described in the
second section, CEILING FAN PROCE-
DURES.
REMOTE CONTROL
PROCEDURES
General
The remote control system is designed to
separately control your ceiling fan and
light intensity. There are four push buttons
on the transmitter (HI, MED, LOW, OFF) to
set the fan speed and turn the fan off. The
FOR/REV push button changes the airflow
direction of the fan blades. The LIGHT
DIMMER push button turns the lights on
and off and controls the light intensity. The
red indicator light will illuminate while any
button is pressed, indicating that the bat-
tery is good. 4

CEILING FAN
PROCEDURES
Electrical Requirements
Your new ceiling fan will require a ground-
ed electrical supply line of 120 volts AC,
60 Hz, 15 amp circuit.
The outlet box must be securely anchored
and capable of withstanding a load of at
least 50 pounds.
5
To reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, or personal injury, mount fan
to outlet box marked “Acceptable for
Fan Support”, and use screws sup-
plied with outlet box. Most outlet
boxes commonly used for support of
light fixtures are not acceptable for
fan support and may need to be
replaced. Consult a qualified electri-
cian if in doubt.
!WARNING
Turning off wall switch is not suffi-
cient. To avoid possible electrical
shock, be sure electricity is turned off
at the main fuse box before wiring. All
wiring must be in accordance with
National and Local codes and the ceil-
ing fan must be properly grounded as
a precaution against possible electri-
cal shock.
!WARNING
How to Assemble Your
Ceiling Fan
1. Remove the hanger ball by loosening
the setscrew in the hanger ball until the
ball falls freely down the downrod
(Figure 2). Remove the pin from the
downrod, then remove the hanger ball.
Retain the pin and hanger ball for rein-
stallation in step 5.
2. Unscrew the setscrew (Figure 3) until it
clears the inside of the motor coupling.
Then separate, untwist and unkink the
three 80” motor leads. Route the motor
lead wires through the downrod. Align
the clevis pin holes in the downrod with
the holes in the motor coupling. Install
the clevis pin and secure with the hair-
pin clip (Figure 3). The clevis pin must
go through the holes in the motor cou-
pling and the holes in the downrod. Be
sure to push the straight leg of the hair-
pin clip through the hole near the end of
the clevis pin until the curved portion of
the hairpin clip snaps around the clevis
pin. The hairpin clip must be properly
installed to prevent the clevis pin from
working loose. Pull up on the downrod
to make sure the clevis pin is properly
installed.

over the downrod. Position the pin
through the two holes in the downrod
and align the hanger ball so the pin is
captured in the groove in the top of the
hanger ball. Pull the hanger ball up tight
against the pin and securely tighten the
setscrew in the hanger ball. A loose
setscrew could create fan wobble.
6. The fan comes with blue, black and
white leads that are 80” long. Before
installing the fan, measure up approxi-
mately 6 to 9-inches above top of hang-
er ball/downrod assembly. Cut off
excess leads and strip back insulation
1/2” from end of leads.
7. Mount the fan blades to the blade
flanges using three 10-24 x 9mm truss
head screws and three fiber washers
(supplied) (Figure 6).
3. Tighten the setscrews (Figure 3)
securely while pulling up on the down-
rod.
NOTE: The setscrews must be properly
installed as described above, or fan
wobble could result.
4. Make sure the grommet is properly
installed in the coupling cover, then
slide the coupling cover on the down-
rod until it rests on the motor housing.
Place the ceiling cover over the down-
rod. Be sure that the ceiling cover and
the coupling cover are both oriented
correctly (Figure 4).
It is critical that the clevis pin in the
motor coupling is properly installed
and the setscrews securely tight-
ened. Failure to verify that the pin
and setscrews are properly installed
(as shown in Figure 3) could result in
the fan falling.
!WARNING
It is critical that the pin in the hanger
ball is properly installed and the
setscrew securely tightened. Failure
to verify that the pin and setscrew
are properly installed could result in
the fan falling.
