SAFETY INFORMATION
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qualied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oorandatleast30in.fromtheendofthebladestoanyobstruction.
• The net weight of this fan is: 17.75 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.
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re,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xturesarenotacceptable
forfansupportandmayneedtobereplaced.Consultaqualied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re,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.
WARNING: Toreducetheriskofreorelectricshock,donotusethefanwithanysolid-state
speed-control device or control the fan speed with a full-range dimmer switch.
WARNING: Toreducetheriskofre,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.

INITIAL INSTALLATION
1. Turn off the circuit breakers and the wall switch to the
fan supply line leads.
DANGER: Failure to disconnect the power
supply prior to installation may result in serious injury
or death.
1
2. Determine the mounting method to use.
Helpful Hint: Downrod mounting is best suited for
ceilings 8 ft. or higher. For taller ceilings you may
want to use a longer downrod (not included). Angle
mounting is best suited for angled or vaulted ceilings.
A longer downrod is sometimes necessary to ensure
proper blade clearance.
Note:Flushmount installation is not available for this
item.
Important:If using the angle mount, check to ensure
the ceiling angle is not steeper than 23°.

STANDARD OR ANGLE MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:Toreducetheriskofre,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 and 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.
CAUTION: Be sure the outlet box (not included) is properly grounded or that a ground (green or bare) wire
is present.
1. Connect supply and mounting bracket (C) wires
according to the diagram and these steps:
•ConnecttheGreenwiresfromthemountingbracket
(C) and the plug on the mounting bracket (C) to the
Bare/Green (ground) supply wire.
•ConnecttheBlueandBlackwiresfromthe
mounting bracket (C) to the Black (hot) supply wire.
•ConnecttheWhitewirefromthemountingbracket
(C) to the White (common) supply wire.
•Secureallwiringconnectionstogetherwithwire
connectors (BB).
Note: The Black wire is hot power for the fan.
The White wire is common. The Blue wire is hot
power for light (sold separately; wiring instructions
will differ if optional light kit is purchased. Refer to
light kit manufacturer’s instructions). The Green
wires are ground wires. If house wires are different
colors than referred to above, stop immediately. It is
recommended a professional electrician determines
the proper wiring.
Hardware Used

7. Depending on the length of the downrod you use,
you may need to cut the lead wires back to simplify
the wiring. If you decide to cut back the lead wires,
it is suggested you do so in the following manner:
Take the lead wires and make sure you have pulled
them all the way through the top of the downrod and
measure 8 in. of lead wire. Then cut the excess wire
off with wire cutters (not included).
8. If you decided to cut back the lead wire in Step 7,
strip 1/2 in. of insulation from the end of the white
wire. Twist the stripped ends of each strand of wire
within the insulation with pliers. Repeat this step for
black, blue (if applicable) and green wires.
Important:If you did not cut back the lead wires in
Step 7, Step 8 is not necessary and you
may proceed to Step 9.
9. While pressing the corresponding wire button on the
downrod (A), insert the stripped end of the black wire
from downrod (A) into the hole, then release the wire
button. Gently pull the wire to be sure it is secure.
Repeat for the remaining wires.

housing (J) to optimize your fan for seasonal
performance.
Using a ceiling fan will allow you to raise your
thermostat setting in summer and lower your
thermostat setting in winter without feeling a
difference in your comfort.
Note:Wait for the fan to stop before moving the
reverse switch.
2A. In warmer weather, push the reverse switch
to the left to display a Sun icon, which will result in
