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 35 lbs (15.9 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
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 “Acceptable for fan support
of 35 lbs (15.9 kg) or less.” Do not use a plastic outlet box.
The illustrations below show three different ways to mount the
outlet box.
If the canopy touches the downrod, then remove the decorative canopy
bottom cover, and turn the canopy 180° before attaching the canopy 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 20° away from
horizontal.

or personal injury, mount to outlet box marked
“Acceptable for fan support of 35 lbs (15.9 kg) or less”,

Assembly - Standard Ceiling Mount (continued)
Assembling the fan
□Loosen, but do not remove, the setscrew (JJ) on the collar (PP) on
top of the fan-motor assembly (E).
□Align the holes at the bottom of the ball/downrod assembly (B) with
the holes in the collar (PP) on top of the fan-motor assembly (E).
□Carefully insert the hanger pin (FF) through the holes in the collar
and ball/downrod assembly (B). Be careful not to jam the hanger pin
(FF) against the wiring inside the ball/downrod assembly (B).
□Insert the locking pin (GG) through the hole near the end of the
hanger pin (FF) until it snaps into its locked position.
□Re-tighten the setscrew (JJ) on the collar (PP) on top of the fan-
motor assembly (E).
WARNING: Failure to properly install the locking pin (GG)
could result in the fan becoming loose and possibly

Assembly - Hanging the Fan (continued)
Hanging the fan
□Carefully lift the fan-motor assembly (E) up to the slide-on
mounting bracket (A).
□Insert the ball portion of the ball/downrod assembly (B)
into the socket of the slide-on mounting bracket (A).

Making the electrical connections
□The fan comes with 54 in. lead wires for use with an extended
ball/downrod assembly. If using the 6 in. 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 and blue wires to the household
black wire using a wire connecting nut (BB).
□Secure each wire connecting nut using electrical tape.
□Turn the wire connecting nut (BB) upward and push the wiring
into the outlet box

WARNING: When using the standard ball/downrod
mounting, the tab in the ring at the bottom of the
mounting bracket must rest in the groove of the
hanger ball. Failure to properly seat the tab in the
groove could cause damage to the wiring.
NOTE: The magnet is pre-attached on the canopy bottom
cover for you to remove and install easily.
□Align the locking slots of the canopy (C) with the two screws (SS)
and alignment post (LL) in the mounting bracket (A).
□Push up the canopy (C) and turn it clockwise until the alignment
post (LL) engages to the round hole and the screws (SS) engage to
the key slots.
□Firmly tighten the two mounting screws (SS).
□Align the oval shape on the canopy (C) with canopy bottom cover
(II). Push up the canopy bottom cover (II) until the screw (SS)
heads engage to the slots on the canopy bottom cover (II) so that
the magnetic canopy bottom cover (II) can be attached to the
bottom of the canopy (C) properly.
NOTE: Follow this step ONLY if you did not cut the extra
length from the wires coming from the ceiling fan. A
