Please read and understand this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate or install the
product.
•Before you begin installing the fan, disconnect the power by removing fuses or turning off the
circuit breakers.
•Make sure that all electrical connections comply with local codes, ordinances, the National
Electrical Code, and ANSI/NFPA 70-199. Hire a qualified electrician or
consult a do-it-yourself wiring handbook if you are unfamiliar with installing electrical
wiring.
•Make sure the installation site you choose allows a minimum clearance of 7 ft. from the blades to
the floor and at least 30 in. from the end of the bladesto any
obstruction.
•The net weight of this fan is: 16.23 lbs.
DANGER: When using an existing outlet box, make sure the outlet box is securely attached to
the building structure and can support the full weight of the fan. Failure to do this can result in serious
injury or death. The stability of the outlet box is essential in minimizing wobble and noise in the fan
after installation is complete.
DANGER: If using the fan in a wet location, the fan must be connected to a supply circuit that is
protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to reduce the risk of personal injury, electrical
shock or death.
WARNING: To avoid personal injury, the use of gloves may be necessary while handling fan
parts with sharp edges.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,or
personal injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked “ACCEPTABLE FOR
FAN SUPPORT” and use the mounting screws provided with 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. Secure the outlet
box directly to the building structure. The outlet box and its support must be able to support the
moving weight of the fan (at least 35 lbs.). Do NOT use a plastic outlet box.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,or
personal injury, wire connectors provided with this fan are designed to accept only one
12-gauge house wire and two lead wires from the fan. If your house wire is larger than 12 gauges or
there is more than one house wire to connect to the two fan lead wires, consult an electrician for the
proper size wire connectors to use.

speed with a full-range dimmer switch.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,or
personal injury, do not bend the blade arms when installing them, balancing
the blades, or cleaning the fan. Do not insert objects between the rotating fan blades.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only parts provided with this fan. The use
of parts OTHER than those provided with this fan will void the warranty.
CAUTION: Read all instructions and safety information before installing your new fan. Review the
accompanying assembly diagrams.
CAUTION: Be sure the outlet box is properly grounded or that a ground (green or bare) wire is
present.
CAUTION: Carefully check all screws, bolts, and nuts on the fan motor assembly to ensure that they
are secured.
