□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 the 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.
If your ceiling fan does not have an existing UL-listed mounting box, then
install one using the following instructions:
WARNING:To reduce the risk of re,electric shock,
or personal injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked”-
acceptablefor fan support of 35 lbs.
(15.9kg) or less”, and use 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. Ifin 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 30° away from horizontal.
If the canopy touches the downrod, then remove the decora-
tive canopy bottom cover and turn the canopy 180° before
attaching the canopy to the mounting plate.
To hang your fan where there is an exisiting xture
but no ceiling joistyou may need an installation hanger bar
as shown above (available at any Home Depot store).

Separate the fan power switches by approximately 7 meters.
□Press and hold the button for 5 seconds to enter the learning
function.
□
NOTE: The battery will weaken with age and should be replaced
before leaking takes place as this will damage the remote

Do not
Do
15
Do not apply oil to your fan or motor. The motor has permanently-lubricated sealed ball bearings.
(Optional) Apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood blades.
(Optional) Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.
Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Ensure they are secure. Because of the fan’s natural
movement, some connections may become loose over time. It is not necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling.
Clean your fan periodically. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the nish. The plating is sealed with a
lacquer to minimize discoloration or tarnishing.
Do not use water when cleaning. Water could damage the motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.

Troubleshooting
Problem Solution
The fan will not start. Check the main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.
Check the line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch
housing.
□
□
Check the battery in the remote control.
Ensure you are in the normal range of 10-20 feet.
Remember to turn off the power supply before checking the dip switch settings.
□
□
□
The fan is noisy. Ensure all motor housing screws are snug.
Ensure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub are tight.
Ensure the wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall
of the switch housing.
□
□
□
Allow a 24-hour “breaking in” period. Most noises associated with a new fan
disappear during this time.
□
If you are using the Ceiling Fan light kit, ensure the screws securing the glassware are
tight. Check that the light bulbs are also secure.
Ensure the canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.
Ensure your outlet box is secure and rubber isolator pads were used between the
mounting plate and outlet box.
□
□
□
The fan wobbles. □
□
Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.
Most fan wobble problems are caused when blade levels are unequal. Check this level by selecting a
point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades. Measure from a point on the center of the blade
to the point on the ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement, and
measure from the same point on each blade to the ceiling. Repeat for each blade. Any measurement
deviation should be within 1/8 in. Run the fan for ten minutes. If the fan continues to wobble please
contact Customer Service and a balancing kit will be sent to you at no charge.
