different procedures to follow for the two
types of installation.
Standard Ceiling Mounting
1. Remove the canopy ring from the canopy
by turning the ring to the right until it
unlocks (Figure 5).
2. Remove the mounting plate 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
mounting plate (Figure 6).
4.
Hanging the Fan
REMEMBER to turn off the pow-
er. 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” mounting. The “close-to-ceiling”
mounting is recommended in rooms with
less than 8-foot ceilings or in areas where
additional space is desired from the oor
to the fan blades. When using standard
downrod installation, the distance from the
ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades will be
approximately 12 inches. The “close-to-ceiling”
installation reduces the distance from the
ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades to
approximately 9 inches.
Once you have decided which ceiling
installation you will use, proceed with the
following instructions. Where necessary,
each section of the instructions will note the
Figure 5
Figure 6 Figure 7
3. Route the wires exiting the top of the
fan motor through the decorative motor
collar cover then the canopy ring. Make sure
the slot openings are on top. Route the wires
through the canopy and then through the
ball/downrod assembly (Figure 7).
WHEN MOUNTING THE FAN ON A SLOPED
CEILING, THE STANDARD BALL/DOWNROD
MOUNTING METHOD MUST BE USED. THE
MOUNTING PLATE MUST BE MOUNTED SO
THAT THE SLOT OPENINGS ARE ON THE
LOWER SIDE BY SLIDING THE MOUNTING
PLATE FROM THE TOP DOWN. FOR A GREATER
MOUNTING ANGLE, REMOVE THE DECORA-
TIVE CANOPY BOTTOM COVER (FIGURE 9).

“Close-to-Ceiling” Mounting
1. Remove the canopy ring from the canopy
by turning the ring to the right until it
unlocks (Figure 5).
2. Remove the mounting plate from the cano-
py 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 mounting
plate (Figure 6).
3. Remove the decorative canopy bottom cov-
er from the canopy by depressing the three
studs (Figure 9).
4. Remove three of the six screws and lock-
washers (every other one) securing the mo-
tor collar to the top of the fan motor housing
(Figure 10).
5. Place the rubber gasket over the remain-
ing three screws, route the wires exiting
the top of the fan motor through the canopy
ring (make sure the slot openings are on
top), then proceed to place the ceiling can-
opy over the collar at the top of the motor
(Figure 11). 5.
4. Loosen, but do not remove, the set
screw on the collar on the top of the
motor housing.
5. Align the holes at the bottom of the
downrod with the holes in the collar
on top of the motor housing (Figure 7).
Carefully insert the hanger pin through
the holes in the collar and downrod. Be
careful not to jam the hanger pin against
the wiring inside the downrod. Insert the
locking pin through the hole near the
end of the hanger pin until it snaps into its
locked position, as noted in the circle inset
of Figure 7.
6. Re-tighten the set screws on the collar on top
of the motor housing (Figure 8).
7. Proceed to “Installing the Fan” section.
FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL SET SCREWS
IN STEP 7 COULD RESULT IN FAN LOOSENING
AND POSSIBLY FALLING.
FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL THE LOCK-
ING PIN AS NOTED IN STEP 5 COULD RESULT
IN FAN LOOSENING AND POSSIBLY FALLING.

WHEN USING THE STANDARD BALL/DOWNROD
MOUNTING, THE TAB IN THE RING AT THE BOT-
TOM OF THE MOUNTING PLATE MUST REST IN
THE GROOVE OF THE HANGER BALL. FAILURE
TO PROPERLY SEAT THE TAB IN THE GROOVE
COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO WIRING.
Installing Fan to
the Outlet Box
WHEN MOUNTING THE FAN ON A SLOPED
CEILING, THE STANDARD BALL/DOWNROD
MOUNTING METHOD MUST BE USED. MAKE
SURE THE MOUNTING BRACKET SLOTS ARE
ON THE LOWER SIDE BY SLIDING THE MOUNT-
ING BRACKET FROM THE TOP DOWN.
1. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through the
center hole in the ceiling mounting bracket
as shown in Figure 7.
2. Install the ceiling mounting plate on the out-
let box by sliding the mounting plate over
the two screws provided with the outlet
box. When using close-to-ceiling mount-
ing, it is important that the mounting plate
be level. If necessary, use leveling washers
(not included) between the mounting plate
and the outlet box. Note that the at side of
the mounting plate is toward the outlet box
(Figure 7).
3. Securely tighten the two mounting screws.
4. Carefully lift the assembly up to the ceil-
ing mounting plate. If using Close-to-
Ceiling mounting, hang the fan on the
hook provided by utilizing one of the
holes at the outer rim of the ceiling canopy
(Figure 12). If using standard mounting, seat
the hanger ball in the mounting plate socket.
Make sure the tab on the mounting bracket
socket is properly seated in the groove in the
hanger ball (Figure 12).
Figure 12
THE HOOK AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 12 IS ONLY
TO BALANCE FAN WHILE ATTACHING WIRING.
FAILURE TO HANG AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 12
MAY RESULT IN HOOK BREAKING, CAUSING
THE FAN TO FALL. HOOK MUST PASS FROM
INSIDE TO OUTSIDE OF CANOPY.
Making the Electrical
Connections
REMEMBER to disconnect the power. If
you feel you do not have enough electrical
wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan
installed by a licensed electrician.
Follow the steps below to connect the fan
to your household wiring. Use the wire
connecting nuts supplied with your fan. Se-
cure the connectors with electrical tape.
Make sure there are no loose strands or
connections.
1. Connect the two green fan ground wires lo-
cated on the downrod and mounting plate
to the household ground wire. When using
Close-to-Ceiling mounting, there is only one
green ground wire from the ceiling mount-
ing plate since the ball/downrod assembly is
not used.
2. Connect the fan light supply (blue) wire
and the fan supply (black) wire to the
black household supply wire as shown in
gure 13.
3. Connect the neutral fan (white) wire to the
white neutral household wire.
4. After connecting the wires, spread them
apart so that the green and white wires are
on side of the outlet box and the black wire
is on the other side.
5. Turn the wire connecting nuts upward and
push the wiring into the outlet box.

7.
EACH WIRE NUT (WIRE CONNECTOR) SUP-
PLIED WITH THIS FAN IS DESIGNED TO ACCEPT
UP TO ONE 12 GAUGE HOUSE WIRE AND TWO
WIRES FROM THE FAN. IF YOU HAVE LARGER
THAN 12 GAUGE HOUSE WIRING OR MORE
THAN ONE HOUSE WIRE TO CONNECT TO THE
FAN WIRING, CONSULT AN ELECTRICIAN FOR
THE PROPER SIZE WIRE NUTS TO USE.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC
SHOCK, DO NOT USE A WALL MOUNTED SOLID
STATE SPEED CONTROL WITH THIS FAN. IT
WILL PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE ELEC-
TRONIC CIRCUITRY.
