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: 13.45 lbs. (6.1 kg).
Do not discard the fan carton or foam inserts. Should this fan need to be returned to the factory for
repairs, it must be shipped in its original packaging to ensure proper protection against damage that
might exceed the initial cause for return.
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: Using a full-range dimmer switch to control fan speed will cause a loud humming
noisefromthefan.Toreducetheriskofreorelectricshock,doNOTuseafull-rangedimmerswitch
to control the fan speed.
WARNING: Toreducetheriskofre,electricshock,orpersonalinjury,mountthefantoanout-
let 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 mov-
ing 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pro-
vided 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.
