WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, this fan
must be installed with an isolating wall control/switch.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not
bend the blade arms (also referred to as anges), when
installing the brackets, balancing the blades or cleaning the
fan.
WARNING: Do not insert foreign objects between rotating
fan blades.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electric shock or
personal injury, mount the fan to the outlet box marked
acceptable for fan support with the screws provided with the
outlet box.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only
the screws provided with the outlet box.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has been
turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning.
All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical
Code “ANSI/NFPA 70-1999” and local electrical codes.
Electrical installation should be performed by a qualied
licensed electrician.
The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted
and capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 35 lbs (15.9
kg) or less. Use only UL-listed outlet boxes marked “FOR FAN

The manufacturer warrants the fan motor to be free from defects in workmanship and material present at time of shipment from the
factory for a period of lifetime after the date of purchase by the original purchaser. The manufacturer warrants the light kit (excluding any
glass), to be free from defects in workmanship and material present at time of shipment from the factory for a period of five years after
the date of purchase by the original purchaser. The manufacturer also warrants that all other fan parts, excluding any glass or acrylic

costs of removing and reinstalling the product are your responsibility. Damage to any part such as by accident, misuse, improper
installation or by affixing any accessories, is not covered by this warranty. Because of varying climatic conditions this warranty does not
cover any changes in brass finish, including rusting, pitting, corroding, tarnishing or peeling. Brass finishes of this type give the longest
useful life when protected from varying weather conditions. 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. We hereby
disclaim any and all warranties, including but not limited to those of merchantability and fitness 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 specified in the
express warranty. Some states do not allow limitation on how long an implied 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 exclusion of incidental or consequential
damages, so the above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives specific 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

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 (not included) directly to the building
structure. Use appropriate fasteners and materials (not
included). The outlet box and its bracing must be able to fully
support the weight of the moving fan (at least 35 lbs.). Do not
use a plastic outlet box.
The illustrations below show three different ways to mount the
outlet box (not included).
To hang your fan where there is an existing xture but no
ceiling joist, you may need an installation hanger bar (not
included) as shown above.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or
personal injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked
acceptable for fan support using the 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.
NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper
blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling.
The maximum angle allowable is 18° away from horizontal. If
the canopy (C) touches the hanger ball/downrod assembly
(D), turn the canopy (C) 180° before attaching the canopy (C)
to the mounting bracket (A).
MOUNTING OPTIONS
Installation

WARNING: Failure to properly install the cotter pin (FF)
could result in the fan loosening and possibly falling.
NOTE: If a longer downrod (not included) is needed, take out
the screw located in the hanger ball (JJ), lower the hanger
ball (JJ) and remove the pin (KK). Remove all three pieces
from the downrod and assemble them onto the new longer
downrod before proceeding to the downrod installation.

If you feel you do not have enough electrical wiring knowledge
or experience, have your fan installed by a licensed electrician.
Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your household
wiring. Use the plastic wire nuts (AA) with your fan. Secure the
plastic wire nuts (AA) with electrical tape. Make sure there are
no loose strands or connections.
Make wire connections as follows, using the wire nuts (AA).
From Fan To Outlet Box
Black + Blue Wires ---------- Black Wire (Hot)
White Wire ------------------- White Wire (Neutral)
Green Wires* ---------------- Green or Bare Wire (Ground)
* There are two green grounding leads: one from the mounting
bracket (A) and one from the hanger ball/downrod assembly (D).
Turn the wire nut connections upward, spreading them
apart so the green (ground) and white wires will be on one
side of the outlet box and the black and blue wires will be
on the other side. Carefully tuck the connections up into the
outlet box.
