1. Safety Rules
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. NOTE: Suitable for use with solid-state speed controls.
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.
8. Do not operate the reverse switch while the fan blades are in
motion. The fan must be turned off and the blades stopped before
reversing the blades direction.
9. Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.
10. To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be
cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.
11. 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.
12. After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should be
turned upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box. The
wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and the
equipment-grounding conductor on one side of the outlet box.
13. Electrical diagrams are for reference only. Light kits 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. WARNING: Use only with light kit marked "Suitable for Use in Wet
Locations"
7. 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 ARMS (ALSO REFERRED TO AS BRACKETS) DURING

To hang your fan where there is an existing
fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need an
installation hanger bar. (Fig.4) (available at
any Home Depot store).

Hanging the Fan
REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow
the steps below to hang your fan properly:
Step 1. Remove the decorative canopy
bottom cover from the canopy by turning the
cover counter clockwise.(Fig. 5)
Step 2. Remove the hanger bracket from the
canopy by loosening the two screws on the
bottom of the hanging bracket
from the screw head and turning the canopy
counter clockwise.(Fig. 5)
Step 3. Secure the hanger bracket to the
ceiling outlet box with the screws and
washers provided with your outlet box.
Step 4. Pass the 120-volt supply wires
through the center hole in the ceiling hanger
bracket.(Fig. 6)
Step 5. Remove the hanger pin, lock pin and
set screws from the top of the motor
assembly.
NOTE:
Step 6. Route wires exiting from the top of
the fan motor through the collar cover,
canopy cover, canopy and then through the
a half turn
If a longer downrod is needed, take
out the screw located in the hanger ball,
lower the hanger ball and remove the pin,
remove all 3 pieces from the downrod and
assemble them onto the new longer downrod
before proceeding step 6. (The longer
downrod is available at any Home Depot
store)

WARNING
FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL LOCKING PIN
AS NOTED IN STEP 7 COULD RESULT IN FAN
LOOSENING AND POSSIBLY FALLING.
Step 8. Tighten two set screws on top of the fan
motor firmly. (Fig. 7)
Step 9. Place the downrod ball into the hanger
bracket socket. Rotate the downrod ball until
the groove of the downrod ball lines up with
the hook of the hanger bracket. (This will help
balance the fan.)
Step 7. Align the holes at the bottom of the
downrod with the holes in the collar on top of
the motor housing (Fig.7). 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 near the end of
the hanger pin until it snaps into its locked
position, as noted in the circle inset of Fig. 7.

Make the Electric Connections
WARNING: To avoid possible electrical
shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the
main fuse box before wiring.
NOTE: This r e mote control unit i s
equipped with 16 code combinations to
prevent possible interference from or to
other remote units. The frequency switches
on your receiver and transmitter have been
preset at the factory. Please recheck to make
sure the switches on the transmitter and the
receiver are set to the same position, any
combination of settings will operate the fan
as long as the transmitter and receiver are
set to the same position. (Fig. 8)
Step 1. (Fig. 9) Insert the receiver into
the mounting bracket with the flat side of
the receiver facing the ceiling.
Step 2. (Fig. 10) Motor to Receiver
Electrical Connections: Connect the black
wire from the fan to black wire marked "TO
MOTOR L". Connect the white wire from
the fan to the white wire marked "TO
MOTOR N" from the receiver. Connect the
blue wire from the fan to the blue wire
marked "For Light" from the receiver.
Secure the wire connections with the plastic
wire nuts provided.
Step 3. (Fig. 10) Receiver to House Supply
Wires Electrical Connections: Connect the
black (hot) wire from the ceiling to the black
wire marked "AC in L" from the receiver.
Connect the white(neutral) wire from the
ceiling to the white wire marked "AC in N" from
the receiver. Secure the wire connections with
the plastic wire nuts provided.
Step 4. (Fig. 10) If your outlet box has a ground
wire (green or bare copper) connect it to the fan
ground wires; otherwise connect the hanging
bracket ground wire to the mounting bracket.
Secure the wire connection with a plastic nut
provided. After connecting the wires spread
them apart so that the green and white wires are
on one side of the outlet box and black and blue
wires are on the other side. Carefully tuck the
wire connections up into the outlet box.
CAUTION: Do not use with wall light
dimmer switch.
