1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has
been turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box before
beginning.
2. 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 qualified
licensed electrician.
3. The outlet box and support structure must be securely
mounted and capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 35
lbs (15.9 kg). Use only UL-listed outlet boxes marked “FOR
FAN SUPPORT.”
4. The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 ft. clearance
from the trailing edge of the blades to the floor.
5. Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.
6. To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other
items, be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.
7. Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fan
blades. A dry dust cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be
suitable for most cleaning.
8. After making electrical connections, spliced conductors
should 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 and ungrounded conductor on
the other side of the outlet box.
9. All setscrews must be checked and retightened where
necessary before installation.

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:

date of purchase by the original purchaser. We agree to correct such defects without charge or at our option replace with a comparable or

costs of removing and reinstalling the product are your responsibility. Damage to any part such as by accident, misuse, improper installa-
tion 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 their 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 claim on the warranty
must be paid by the customer.
