IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Read all instructions carefully, even if you feel you are quite familiar with this type of appliance. When
using electrical appliances, in order to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury, these basic
safety precautions should always be followed:
1. This ceiling fan MUST be installed by a Qualified Electrical Contractor in accordance with the local
regulations, and all local, state and national electrical codes. Any alterations or additions to building
wiring must be completed by a licensed electrical contractor, or person authorised by legislation to
work on the fixed wiring of any electrical installation. All wiring must be done by a licenced
Electrician as on-site warranty may be voided if proof cannot be provided.
2. The fan must be connected to a 240V AC 50Hz power supply.
3. All electrical work must only be undertaken after disconnection of the power by removing fuses or
turning off the circuit breaker, to ensure all pole isolation of the electrical supply.
4. The fan must be earthed.
5. The fan must be installed so that the blades are at least 2.1 metres above the floor.
6. The ceiling fan weight is 6.56 kg. The structure that the ceiling fan is mounted to must be capable
of supporting a weight of at least 45kg. The fixing must be able to support the moving weight of the
fan and must not twist or work loose.
7. Make sure that the installation site will not allow the rotating fan blades to come into contact with
any object and that there is a minimum clearance of 150mm (6”) from the blade tip to the wall or
ceiling. Please note that the bigger this clearance is the better the airflow from your fan will be.
8. DO NOT install this product outdoors. Installing the fan in a position where it could be exposed to
water, moisture or external elements is dangerous.
9. DO NOT connect the fan motor to a dimmer switch. This may give an unsatisfactory performance
(motor hum) and cause damage to the motor and/or controller. Use ONLY the provided remote
control.
10. This appliance is not to be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction.
11. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they DO NOT play with the appliance.
12. It is NOT recommended that ceiling fans and gas appliances be operated in the same room at the
same time.
13. Do not insert anything into the fan blades whilst they are spinning. This will damage the blades and
upset the balance of the fan causing the unit to wobble.
14. After the fan is completely installed make sure that all base and fan blade fixings are secured and
tightened to prevent any problems.
15. Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may loosen. Check the support
connections, brackets and blade attachments twice a year to make sure they remain secured. If
any are loose, tighten.
16. If unusual oscillating movement is observed, immediately stop using the ceiling fan and contact the
manufacturer, its service agent or suitably qualified persons.
17. The replacement of parts of the safety suspension system device shall be performed by the
manufacturer, its service agent or suitably qualified persons.
18. If it is necessary to replace the live or neutral brushes to ensure operation of the motor then both
brushes and the earth brush shall be replaced at the same time. The brushes shall only be
replaced by a suitably qualified person.
19. An all-pole disconnection incorporated in the fixed wiring is to be provided, such as an all-pole
switch or a supply cord fitted with a plug.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The important safeguards and instructions given in this manual are not meant to cover all
possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood that common
sense, caution and care are factors which cannot be built into any product.

FAULT FINDER:
•Always check the “Trouble Shooting Checklist” included in this booklet before seeking
warranty claim.
•Mechanical noise may be noticed on installation. Allow at least 8 hours settling-in period.
•Some fans may wobble more than others, even if they are identical. This does not
necessarily indicate a fault.
PREPARATION:
1. Unpack your ceiling fan carefully, then remove all parts and components, and lay on a cloth
or soft surface to avoid damage. DO NOT lay the motor housing on its side, the housing
may get damaged.
2. Before commencing installation, check that all parts are included.
NB: You may need to remove all foam packaging material to ensure there are no missing
components.

INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY
CAUTION: Before installing the fan make sure you have turned OFF the electricity supply.
SELECTING A LOCATION:
1. Choose a location for mounting the fan where the blades will have at least 2.1 metres of
clearance from the floor.
2. Make sure that the installation site will not allow the rotating fan blades to come into contact
with any object and that there is a minimum clearance of 150mm (6”) from the blade tip to the
wall or ceiling. Please note that the bigger this clearance is the better the airflow from your
fan will be.
3. DO NOT use outdoors. Installing the fan in a position where it could be exposed to water or
moisture is dangerous and will void the warranty.
4. If the location you have chosen does not have a suitable support beam capable of supporting
45 kg, install a brace 2” x 4” between the ceiling joists as a support medium.
5. Secure the hanging bracket to the ceiling joist or suitable structure that is capable of carrying
a load of at least 45 kg, with the two long fixing screws provided. Ensure that at least 30mm
of the screw is threaded into the support.
6. This Ceiling fan can be installed on flat ceiling or a raked ceiling of up to 25 degrees
NB: The fixing screws included are designed for use when ceiling fan is secured onto
timber joists. For all other surfaces, additional and suitable fixing screws for that surface
will need to be purchased.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Ensure the power is off when installing this fan.
For your convenience, and to assist in easy installation & cleaning, your ceiling fan is connected with
Fanco’s easy connect system. Simply connect the male and female couplings, and then ensure
excess wiring is retained inside the upper canopy.
Connect the Live (L), Neutral (N) and Earth ( ) according to the markings on the Terminal Block.
DISASSEMBLY OF ROD AND BALL
STEP 1: From one end of the downrod (A), unscrew the holding screw (B), slide the ball down (C)
remove the ball-pin (D).
STEP 2: Slide the ball up and totally off the downrod. Keep all pieces to reassemble later.
STEP 3: From the other end of the downrod , remove the cotter-pin (F), and slide out the cross-pin
(G). Again, keep all pieces for reassembly later.
STEP 4: Feed the main motor wire plug up through the inside of the downrod (A) then insert the
downrod into the motor bush (I). Cross screws may need to be loosened.
STEP 5: Gently push the cross-pin (G) through the holes aligned with the base of the motor bush
and downrod. CAUTION: DO NOT force the cross-pin, gently wiggle and rotate it until it glides
through both holes.
STEP 6: Replace the cotter-pin (F) on the other side of the cross-pin to secure the downrod to the
motor bush.
STEP 7: Tighten up both cross screws (J) to make the downrod rigid in the motor bush.

CARE & CLEANING
Periodic cleaning of your ceiling fan is the only maintenance required.
Use a soft brush or lint free cloth to avoid scratching the finish. Please turn off electricity when
you do so.
Do not use water when cleaning your ceiling fan. It could damage the motor or the wooden
blades and create the possibility of an electrical shock.
The motor has a permanently lubricated ball bearing and as such, is maintenance free.
NOISE:
The manufacturer warranty covers actual faults that may develop, but NOT minor complaints, e.g.
motor operation noise - ALL ELECTRIC MOTORS ARE AUDIBLE TO SOME EXTENT; this is
more obvious when the fan is operating at low speeds.
WOBBLE:
Ceiling fans are designed to move during operation because they are not generally rigidly
mounted
Movement of a couple of centimetres is acceptable for safe operation.
Balancing kits included should be used to adjust the balancing when first installed.
NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR:
Threaded components working slighting loose or blade carriers even slightly bent due to vigorous
cleaning or bumping can cause extra wobble and noise. THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER
WARRANTY but a little care and maintenance can reduce or prevent this problem.
