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 o󰀨 the circuit
breakers.
• Make sure 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: 19.45 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: 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
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.).
WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electric 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-gauge and/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, 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 o󰀨 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.
2. Determine the mounting method to use.
Standard mounting is best suited for ceilings 8 ft.
or higher. For taller ceilings you may want to use a
longer downrod (not included).
Angle-style mounting is best suited for angled or
vaulted ceilings. A longer downrod is sometimes
necessary to ensure proper blade clearance. Note:
If using the angle mount, check to ensure the ceiling
angle is not steeper than 16°.
Closemount-style mounting is more suitable for
ceilings lower than 8 ft. high.
Flushmount installation is not available for this item.

STANDARD OR ANGLE MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
4. Depending on the length of 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. Measure 8 inches of
lead wire, then cut the excess wire o󰀨 with wire cutters
(not included).
5. If you decided to cut back the lead wire in Step 4, 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 (not included). Repeat this step for
black and blue wires.
Note: If you did not cut back the lead wires in Step 4, Step
5 is not necessary and you may proceed to Step 6.
6. Install the ball end of the downrod (A) into the opening of
mounting bracket (D). Align one of the four slots in the
ball with the tab in the mounting bracket (D). Note: The
downrod (A) should not rotate if installed correctly.

WIRING
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-gauge and/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.
CAUTION: Be sure the outlet box is properly grounded or that a Ground (Green or Bare) wire is present.
1. Connect household supply and fan wires according to
the diagram and these steps:
• Connect the Green wire from the downrod (A) and
mounting bracket (D) to the Bare/Green (ground)
supply wire. Note: Closemount installation does not
use downrod (A), so there will only be two Green
wires to connect.
• Connect the White wire from the fan to the White
(neutral) supply wire.
• Connect the Black and Blue wires from the fan to the
Black (hot) supply wire.
• Secure all wiring connections together with wire
connectors (AA).
Note: If there is a second hot/power wire coming from
the outlet box, connect it to the Blue (light power) fan
wire for separate light and fan control.
Note: The Black wire is hot power for the fan. The
White wire is common for the fan and light kit. The Blue
wire is hot power for light. The Green wire is the ground
wire. If household supply wires are di󰀨erent colors than
referred to above, it is recommended a professional
electrician determines the proper wiring.
