IMPORTANT NOTES :
Please minimise risk of electrical shock by switching off electricity supply at the
main circuit breaker. And read the following point carefully.
To ensure the success of the installation be sure to read the instructions and study the diagrams
thoroughly before commencing.
All electrical work should 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. If you are in any
doubt the services of a qualified electrician should be sought to ensure that all work is carried out
in accordance with the I.E.E. Regulations, current good practice and other national and local
electrical codes.
Make sure that your 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.
Ensure the blades are mounted at a minimum height of 2.3 meters (7’6”) from the floor when the
fan is installed.
The fixing point for the fan must be able to support a weight ten times that of the net weight of the
fan. Net weights can be found on the bottom of the unit’s box. If you are mounting the fan to a
ceiling junction box, the box and it’s fixing must be able to support the moving weight of the fan
and must not twist or work loose.
The fan must be earthed.
Do not connect the fan motor to a dimmer switch. This may give an unsatisfactory performance
(motor hum) and cause damage to the motor.
It is not recommended that ceiling fans and gas appliances are operated in the same room at the
same time.
The fan must be turned off and stopped completely before reversing the fan direction. This will
prevent any damage to the motor of the unit or controller (if installed).
Do not insert anything into the fan blades while the fan is operating. This will damage the blades
and upset the balance of the unit causing the unit to wobble.
After the fan is completely installed make sure that all connections are secure and tight to prevent
any problems.
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 are all secure. If they
are loose tighten with a screwdriver. ( It is not necessary to take the fan down from the ceiling )

Installing the fan
1. Hanger bracket installation
Picture A
Drop Rod Style
Picture B
Flush Mount Style
All electrical work should 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.
Your fan can be installed in either of two options. It can be installed as a flush mount fan (Picture B),
i.e. it is mounted as close to the ceiling as possible. It can also be installed as a drop rod style of fan
(Picture A). In this situation the drop rod assembly is used to lower the fan down from it’s mounting
position slightly. Extension rods, ranging from 12” to 72” (your fan is supplied with 6” Drop rod in the
box), are available if you need to lower your fan further. (This is normally the case in conservatories
or rooms with very high ceilings.)
The following steps will guide you to a successful installation:
Hanging bracket installation
Down rod assembly style or flush mount assembly
Attaching the blades
Attaching the light plate and LED light fitter and glass
Wiring instructions
The hanger bracket should be screwed on to a firm flat
surface. The fixing location must be able to withstand ten
times the static weight of the fan. If you have any doubts as
to the ability of your intended fixing location to be able to
withstand this loading. Please contact our service help-line
or another competent authority to advise you. In most
situation two wood screws screwed into a wooden joist is
more than adequate to support your ceiling fan. The hanger
bracket should be screwed onto the joist with the two wood
screws provided. The washers provided should go in the
following sequence:
Screw head > washer round>spring washer >Hanger bracket > Ceiling. Screw the hanger bracket to
the ceiling and make sure all connections are secure to prevent the fan from falling. Fixings must
screw into a joist and not just the plasterboard. Loosen the two canopy screws from the hanger
bracket.

2. Drop rod assembly
Remove the cotter pin and cross pin from the drop rod
boss of the fan. If a longer drop rod (12” to 72” rod) is
going to be used transfer the ball joint and the earth
wire to the longer rod.
Put the drop rod through the flared end of the canopy
and pass the electrical supply leads from the top of the
motor through the drop rod and boss cover and
canopy decorative plate until they exit at the top of the
rod. Always ensure the rod passes through the
canopy and boss cover before the rod is connected to
the fan If an extension rod longer than 18” inches is to
be used, the cables will need to be extended in an
appropriate way.
Loosen the drop rod set screws on the boss, which is
on top of the motor and insert the drop rod into the
drop rod boss on top of the motor casing. Turn gently
to align the holes in the boss with those in the rod.
Ease the split pin through the boss and the rod taking
care not to pinch or damage any cables. Fix in place by
replacing the cotter pin.
Tighten all set screws at this point. This prevents the
rod and the fan moving in relation to one and other. It
also assists in maintaining a good earth continuity
through the fan, which is important to the safety of the
unit.
Failure to tighten the locking screws down may cause
the motor to oscillate badly.

3. Attaching the blades
Release 3 screws from upper housing, put the canopy onto the drop rod boss of the fan. Using the 3
upper housing screws to screw the canopy tight Please refer to the pictures .
Attach the blade to the blade holder using the three blade
set screws and fiber washers. Start a screw with fiber
washer into the blade holder, but do not tighten. Repeat
for the two remaining blade set screws and fiber washers.
Tighten each screw securely starting with the center
screw. Make sure the blade is straight. Repeat these steps
for the remaining blades.
Align the holes from the blade holder to the holes from the
motor, and secure the blade holder in place with screws
and washers provided. Repeat this process to attach the
other blades assemblies.

4. Attaching the light kit and glass
Lossen the 3 screws on the switch housing. Connect the push
connector of fan to connector of light wire.

the 3 screws.
Raise the glass up against the LED light fitter and secure
it to the fan by turning the shade clockwise until snug. DO
NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

FOR DROP ROD STYLE OF FAN:
Lift the fan up to the hanger bracket, steer the ball in
from the side of the bracket and lower it into the recess
of the bracket.
Rotate the ball around until the groove in the side of
the ball aligns with the protrusion on the upper edge of
the recess. When aligned the fan should drop slightly
as it assumes it’s correct position.
This is to prevent rotation of the rod and fan when the
unit is working.
REFER TO THE WIRING INSTRUCTIONS NEXT.
FOR FLUSH STYLE OF FAN:
This needs two people to accomplish. One person hold the fan,
and another one make the wiring connection.
REFER TO THE WIRING INSTRUCTIONS NEXT.

This product has been classed as Electrical or Electronic
Equipment and should not be disposed of with other
household or commercial waste at the end of it’s working life.
The Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
Directive (2002/96/EC) has been put in place to recycle
products using best available precise and minimize the impact
upon the environment.
Having checked that all electrical connections are securely made and insulated, turn on the power
and check the operation of the fan.
The slide switch on the other side of the housing changes the direction of rotation of the blades.
(Remember to let the fan slow to a complete stop before changing the direction of rotation). When
looking up at the fan blades, anti –clockwise rotation achieves a downward flow of air and clockwise
rotation achieves an upward movement of air.
Summer operation – In warm weather a downward movement of air is more desirable as this achieves
a greater cooling effect.
Winter operation – In winter a movement of air moving upwards and then back down the sides of the
room achieves a more balanced temperature throughout the room.
If a wall control or remote control system has been used refer to the accompanying leaflets enclosed
in these systems.
Product Disposal Instructions
Operating instructions
Whilst every precaution is taken at the factory to ensure your fan is of the highest quality, imbalance
may occur. This may be due to slight irregularities in the blades or blade carriers. Deviating from
these instructions can cause further problems.
The following procedure may help to rectify the situation.
The hanging bracket must always be tight against the ceiling so that no movement can occur.
Make sure that the rod is firmly locked into the boss on top of the fan. The locking screw should be
securely tightened.
Check all the blades are firmly tightened on to their fixings.
Blade tracking can easily be checked by holding a yardstick or similar measure vertically from the
ceiling to the tip of the blade. Then check all blades measure the same distance from that point. To
correct slight problems re-check the screws that hold the blades onto the motor for tightness.
Changing over two adjacent blades – may correct any imbalance.
Use the universal balancing kit supplied with the fan.
Please note that drop rod styles of fans do have a slight level of movement but this is in no way
dangerous.
Blade balancing
Ensure that checks of the fixings take place periodically. (see Safety Precaution 11)
Periodic cleaning of your new fan is recommended particularly the blades. The plated or painted
surfaces of your fan have been sealed with a lacquer to minimize any discoloration or tarnishing.
Therefore use a soft brush or lint free cloth to avoid scratching the surface.
The motor has permanently sealed bearings so no lubrication is necessary
Do not use water when cleaning you fan as this could damage the surfaces of the casing and the
blades and may create the possibility of a electric shock.
