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.
11. All setscrews must be checked and retightened where
necessary before installation.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury,
do not bend the blade brackets (also referred to as
anges) during assembly or after installation. Do not
insert objects in the path of the blades.

Warranty
The supplier warrants the fan motor to be free from defects in workmanship and material present at time of shipment from the factory for a life-
time after the date of purchase by the original purchaser. The supplier also warrants that all other fan parts, excluding any glass or acrylic blades,
to be free from defects in workmanship and material at the time of shipment from the factory for a period of two years after the date of purchase
by the original purchaser. We agree to correct such defects without charge or at our option replace with a comparable or superior model if the
product is returned. To obtain warranty service, you must present a copy of the receipt as proof of purchase. All costs of removing and reinstalling
the product are your responsibility. Damage to any part such as by accident or misuse or improper installation or by afxing any accessories, is
not covered by this warranty. Because of varying climatic conditions this warranty does not cover any changes in brass nish, including rusting,
pitting, corroding, tarnishing, or peeling. Brass nishes of this type give their longest useful life when protected from varying weather condi-
tions. A certain amount of “wobble” is normal and should not be considered a defect. Servicing performed by unauthorized persons shall render
the warranty invalid. There is no other express warranty. Home Decorators Collection hereby disclaims any and all warranties, including but not
limited to those of merchantability and tness for a particular purpose to the extent permitted by law. The duration of any implied warranty which
cannot be disclaimed is limited to the time period as specied in the express warranty. Some states do not allow a limitation on how long an im-
plied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. The retailer shall not be 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 exclu-
sion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives specic legal rights,
and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. This warranty supersedes all prior warranties. Shipping costs for any return of
product as part of a claim on the warranty must be paid by the customer.

Installation
MOUNTING OPTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electric shock
or personal injury, mount to outlet box marked
“Acceptable for fan support of 50 lbs. (22.7 Kg)
or less”, and use screws provided with the outlet
box. An outlet box commonly used for the support
of lighting xtures may not be acceptable for fan
support and may need to be replaced. If in doubt,
consult a qualied electrician.
If your ceiling fan does not have an existing UL-listed mounting
box, then install one using the following instructions:
□Disconnect the power by removing the fuses or turning off
the circuit breakers.
□Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use
the appropriate fasteners and materials. The outlet box and
its bracing must be able to fully support the weight of the
moving fan (at least 50 lbs. (22.7 kg)). Do not use a plastic
outlet box.
The illustrations below show three different ways to mount the
outlet box.
If the canopy (C) touches the ball/downrod assembly (B), then remove
the decorative canopy bottom cover, and turn the canopy (C) 180°
before attaching the canopy (C) to the mounting plate.
To hang your fan where there is an existing xture but no ceiling joist,
you may need an installation hanger bar as shown above
(available at any Home Depot store).
NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to maintain
proper blade clearance when installing on a steep,
sloped ceiling. The maximum angle allowable is 30°
away from horizontal.

□Remove the canopy ring (L) from the canopy (C) by turning
the ring counter-clockwise until it unlocks.
□Remove the mounting bracket (A) from the canopy (C) by
loosening the two canopy screws (HH) located in the “L
shaped” slots.
□Remove and save the two canopy screws (SS) in the
round holes. This will enable you to remove the mounting
bracket (A).
□Route the wires exiting the top of the fan motor (D) into
the decorative motor collar cover (F) and through the
canopy ring (L).
□Make sure the slot openings are on top and route the

the setscrew (DD) ever become loose while the fan is
running in reverse, the safety tab (EE) will engage and
stop the fan from falling.

bracket (A) is toward the outlet box (OO).
□Securely tighten the two mounting screws (TT).
□Carefully lift the fan motor assembly (D) up to the slide-
on mounting bracket (A).

Assembly - Hanging the Fan (continued)
6a Making the electrical connection
(standard)
IMPORTANT: Use the plastic wire connectors (BB) supplied with
your fan. Secure the connectors with electrical tape and ensure
there are no loose strands or connections.
WARNING: Each wire nut supplied with this fan is designed to
accept up to one 12-gauge house wire and two wires from the
fan. If you have larger than 12-gauge house wiring or more
than one house wire to connect to the fan wiring, consult an
electrician for the proper size wire nuts to use.
□The fan comes with 54 in. lead wires for use with an extended
ball/downrod assembly. If using the ball/downrod assembly (B)
provided, you can cut the lead wires to your desired length (no
shorter than 12 in.) This will make extra room in the canopy (C),
if you do not wish to cut the wires, you will need to neatly wrap
them.
□Connect the fan motor green wires to the household green or
bare wire using a wire connecting nut (BB).
□Connect the fan motor white wire to the household white wire
using a wire connecting nut (BB).
□Connect the fan motor black wire to the household black wire
using a wire connecting nut (BB).
□If installing this fan without the optional light kit, cap off the fan
motor blue wire using a wire connecting nut (BB). If installing the
fan with the optional light kit proceed to page 10.
□Secure each wire connecting nut using electrical tape.
□Turn the wire connecting nut (BB) upward and push the wiring
into the outlet box (OO).
NOTE: The fan comes with 54 in. lead wires for use with an
extended ball/downrod assembly. If using the ball/downrod
assembly (B) provided, you can cut the lead wires to your desired
length (no shorter than 12 in.).
IMPORTANT: If after this step, you decide to check that the
electrical connections have been successful, it is critical to attach
the switch cup using the quick connector. The fan will not operate
unless the switch cup is connected to the fan.
