1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, insure 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 and
local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by a
qualified licensed electrician.
3. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock and fire, do not use
this fan with any solid-state fan speed control device.
4. 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.
7. Do not operate reversing switch while fan blades are in motion. Fan
must be turned off and blades stopped before reversing blade
direction.
8. Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.
9. To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be
cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.
10. 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.
11. After marking 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.
12. Electrical diagrams are reference only. Light kit that are not packed
with the fan must be UL Listed and marked suitable for use with the
model fan you are installing. Switches must be UL General Use
Switches. Refer to the Instructions packaged with the light kits and
switches for proper assembly.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR PERSONAL
INJURY, MOUNT FAN TO OUTLET BOX MARKED ACCEPTABLE FOR
FAN SUPPORT.
5. The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted and
capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 50 pounds. Use only UL
Listed outlet boxes marked FOR FAN SUPPORT.
6. The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 feet clearance from the
trailing edge of the blades to the floor.
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 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
build i n g s t r u c t ure. U se appropr i a t e
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: You may need a longer downrod to
maintai n proper blade clearance when
installing on a steep, sloped ceiling.
To hang your fan where there is an existing
fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need an
installation hanger bar as shown in Figure 4
(available at your Hampton Bay Retailer).

Hanging the Fan
REMEMBER to turn off th 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-foot
ceilings or in areas where additional space is
desired from the floor to the fan blades. When
using the standard 4 1/2" downrod, the distance
from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades
will be approximately 12 1/2 inches. The "close-
to-ceiling" installation reduce this distance to 8-
inches. Once you have selected which mounting
system you will use, proceed with the following
instructions. Where necessary, each section of
the instructions will note the different
procedures to follow for the two types of
mounting.
STANDARD CEILING INSTALLATION
1. Remove the canopy ring from the canopy by
turning the ring to the right until it unlocks.
(Fig. 5)
2. Remove the hanger bracket from the canopy
by loosening the four screws on the top of the
canopy. Remove the two non-slotted screws
and loosen the slotted screws. This will
enable you to remove the hanger bracket.
(Figure 5)
4.
3. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through the center
hole in the ceiling hanger bracket as shown in
Fig.6
4. Loose the two screws on the outlet box in half
way.
5. Attach the hanger bracket on the outlet box by
sliding the hanger bracket over the screws
provided with the outlet box.
6.Tighten the two screws on the outlet box securely.
7. Remove the hanger pin, lock pin and set screws
from the top of the motor assembly.
8. Route wires exiting from the top of the fan motor
through the collar cover and canopy ring. Make
sure the slot openings of the canopy ring are on
top. Route the wires through the canopy and then
through the ball/downrod assembly (Figure 6A).
9. Align the holes at the bottom of the downrod with
the holes in the collar on top of the motor housing
(Figure 6A). Carefully insert the hanger 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 ins locked position, as note din the circle
inset of Figure 6A
WARNING
FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL LOCKING
PIN AS NOTED IN STEP 9 COULD RESULT IN
FAN LOOSENING AND POSSIBLY FALLING.
10. Tighten two set screws on top of the fan motor
firmly. (Figure 6A)
11. Place the downrod ball into the hanger bracket

openings of the ring are on top). then proceed to
place the ceiling canopy 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. 7).
10.Tighten the mounting screws securely. (Fig. 7)

Making the Electrical
Connections
Remember to disconnect the power.
Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your household wiring.
Use the wire connecting nuts supplied with your fan. Secure the
connectors with electrical tape. Make sure there are no loose
strands or connections.
Step 1 Connect the fan supply (black) wire and light supply (blue)
wire to the black household supply wire as shown in Figure 9.
Step 2. Connect the neutral fan (white) wire to the white neutral
household wire.
Step 3 Connect the fan ground wire (green) to the household ground
wire.
Step 4 After connecting the wires, spread them apart so that the
green and white wires are on one side of the outlet box and the black
and the blue wires are on the other side.
Step 5 Turn the connecting nuts upward and push the wiring into the
outlet box.
Figure 10 and 11 illustrate the wiring connections for optional
wall control (available at your Hampton Bay Retailer, the wire
color out of wall control may vary, see wall control's
installation manual for correct wire connections.)

fan blades according to the instructions in
the following section.

Attaching the Fan
Blades
Step 1 Attach the blades to the blade brackets
using the screws and rubber washers provided
as shown in Figure 14. Start a screw into the
bracket, but do not tighten. Repeat for the other
2 screws and washers.
Step 2 Tighten each screw securely starting
with the center screw. Make sure the blade is
straight.
Step 3 Fasten the blade assemblies to the motor
by insert the tab from the blade brackets to the
slot in the bottom motor housing, then tighten
the two screws and washers already installed in
the blade brackets (Figure 15).
Step 4 Install an optional light kit if you wish.
Follow the instructions included with the kit.

3. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if
the blade wobble is still noticeable.
4. If the blade wobble is still noticeable,
interchanging two adjacent (side by side)
blades can redistribute the weight and
possibly result in smoother operation.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY,
DO NOT BEND THE BLADE HOLDERS
WHILE INSTALLING, BALANCING THE
BLADES, OR CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT
INSERT FOREIGN OBJECTS BETWEEN
ROTATING FAN BLADES.
Touching
ceiling
Figure 16
All blades are grouped by weight. Because
natural woods very in density, the fan may
wobble even though the blades are weight
matched.
The following procedure should correct most
fan wobble. Check after each step.
1. Check that all blade and blade bracket screws
are secure.
2. Most fan wobble problems are caused when
blade levels are unequal. Check this level by
selecting a point on the ceiling above the tip of
one of the blades. Measure this distance as
shown in Figure 16. Rotate the fan until the next
blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for
each blade. The distance should be equal within
1/8".
