liable for incidental, consequential, or special damages arising out of or in
connection with product use or performance except as may otherwise be accorded by
law. Some states do not allow the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages,
so the above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives specific

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. 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.
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 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.
12. 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 OUTLETBOX 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.
7.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.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, DO NOT BEND THE
BLADE ARMS (ALSO REFERRED TO AS BRACKETS) DURING ASSEMBLY
OR AFTER INSTALLATION. DO NOT INSERT OBJECTS IN THE PATH OF

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
building structure. Use appropriate
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
maintain 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).

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 8.
Step 2. Connect the neutral fan (white) wire to the white
netura 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.
Figures 9 and 10 illustrate the wiring connections for the
optional wall control (available at your Hampton Bay Retailer,

Step 2. Slide the canopy up to ceiling and
over the 2 screws on the hanger bracket.
Rotate canopy clockwise. Next, while
holding the canopy with one hand, slide
the canopy cover over the screws and
rotate clockwise until tight. Note: adjust
the canopy screws as necessary until the
canopy and canopy cover are snug. (Fig.

Attaching the Fan
Blades
Step 1 Attach blades to blade arms using
three screws and rubber washers as shown
in Figure 12. Start a screw into the arm, do
not tighten. Repeat for the 2 remaining
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 arms to the motor
by inserting the tab from the blade arms to
the slot in the bottom motor housing, then
tighten the two screws and washers already
installed in the blade arms (Figure 13).
Step 4 Install an optional light kit if you
wish. Follow the instructions included with
the kit. Figure 13

All blades are grouped by weight.
Because natural woods very in density,
the fan may wobble even though the
blades are weighed equally.
The following procedure should correct
most fan wobbling problems. Check after
each step.
1. Check that all blade and blade bracket
screws are secure.
2. Most fan wobbling 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 14. Rotate the fan until the
next blade is positioned for
measurement. Repeat for each blade.
The distance should be equal
within 1/8".
deviation
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.
