SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read and understand this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate, or install the product.
• Before you begin installing the fan, disconnect the power by removing fuses or turning off the
circuit breakers.
• Make sure that all electrical connections comply with local codes, ordinances, the National Electrical
Code, and ANSI/NFPA 70-199. Hire a qualied electrician or consult a do-it-yourself wiring handbook if
you are unfamiliar with installing electrical wiring.
• Make sure the installation site you choose allows a minimum clearance of 7 ft. (2,14 m) from the blades
to the oor and at least 30 in. (76 cm) from the end of the blades to any obstruction.
DANGER
WARNING
WARNING
When using an existing outlet box, make sure
the outlet box is securely attached to the building
structure and can support the full weight of
the fan. Failure to do this can result in serious
injury or death. The stability of the outlet box is
essential in minimizing wobble and noise in the
fan after installation is complete.
To reduce the risk of re or electric shock, do not
use the fan with any solid-state speed-control
device or control the fan speed with a full-range
dimmer switch.
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked
“ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT” and use the
mounting screws provided with the outlet box. Most
outlet boxes commonly used for the support of
lighting xtures are not acceptable for fan support
and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualied
electrician if in doubt. Secure the outlet box directly
to the building structure. The outlet box and its
support must be able to support the moving weight
of the fan at least 35 lbs. (15,88 kg).
WARNING
CAUTION
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or
personal injury, do not bend the blade arms
when installing them, balancing the blades, or
cleaning the fan. Do not insert objects between
the rotating fan blades.
Read all instructions and safety information
before installing your new fan. Review the
accompanying assembly diagrams.
Be sure the outlet box is properly grounded or
that a ground (green or bare) wire is present.

MOTOR HOUSING INSTALLATION
10. Temporarily lift the motor housing to the mounting
bracket to determine which two motor housing
screws in the sides of the mounting bracket align
with the slotted holes in the top edge of the motor
housing. Partially loosen the two motor housing
mounting screws that align with the slotted holes.
Remove the other two motor housing mounting
screws from opposite sides of the mounting bracket
(Fig. 10).
11. Slide the motor housing over the motor, aligning
the slotted holes in the motor housing with the two
loosened motor housing mounting screws in the
mounting bracket. Twist motor housing to lock. Then
reinstall the two previously-removed motor housing
mounting screws and securely tighten all screws
(Fig. 11).

(Fig. 12).
Note: A cutout in the upper switch housing allows
easy access to the motor screw holes.
13. Insert the two previously removed motor screws
