SAFETY RULES
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 (NEC)
and local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by
a qualified licensed electrician.
3. WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only the two steel
screws (and lock washers) provided with the outlet box for mounting to
the outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly used for the support of
lighting fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be
replaced, consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted and capable
of reliably supporting a minimum of 50 pounds. Use only CUL Listed outlet
boxes marked “FOR FAN SUPPORT”.
The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 feet clearance from the
trailing edge of the blades to the floor.
Do not operate reversing switch while fan blades are in motion. Fan must be
turned off and blades stopped before reversing blade direction.
Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR
PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT FAN TO OUTLET BOX MARKED
“ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT”.
To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be cautious when
working around or cleaning the fan.
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.
After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should be turned upward and
pushed carefully up into outlet box. The wires should be spread apart with the
grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding conductor on one side of the outlet
box.
Electrical diagrams are reference only. Light kits that are not packed with the fan must
be Listed and marked suitable for use with the model fan you are installing. Switches
must be General Use Switches. Refer to the Instructions packaged with the light kits
and switches for proper assembly.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, DO NOT BEND THE
BLADE BRACKETS (ALSO REFERRED TO AS FLANGES) DURING
ASSEMBLY OR AFTER INSTALLATION. DO NOT INSERT OBJECTS IN THE
PATH OF THE BLADES.

MOUNTING OPTIONS
If there isn't an existing UL (cUL for Canadian Installation) listed
mounting box, then read the following instructions. Disconnect the
power by removing fuses or turning off circuit breakers.
Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use
appropriate fasteners and building materials. The outlet box and
its support must be able to fully support the moving weight of the
fan (at least 50 lbs). Do not use plastic outlet boxes.
Figures 1, 2 and 3 are examples of different ways to mount the
outlet box.
NOTE: If you are installing the ceiling fan on a sloped (vaulted)
ceiling, you may need a longer downrod to maintain proper
clearance between the tip of the blade and the ceiling. A minimum
clearance of 12" is suggested for optimal operation.
NOTE: Depending on the location you have selected for
installation, you may need to purchase and install a "Joist Hanger"
for the support of the outlet box. Make sure the joist hanger you
purchase has been designed for use with ceiling fans. (Fig. 4)

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Turn the power on and check the operation of your ceiling fan. The pull
chain controls the fan speed as follows:
Step 1. 3-speed pull chain controls the fan speed as follows: 1 pull = High,
2 pulls = Medium, 3 pulls = Low, and 4 pulls = off.
NOTE: To set the fan blades in reverse, the reverse slide switch is located
on the side of the switch housing.
Do not operate reversing switch while fan blades are in motion. Fan must be
turned off and blades stopped before reversing blade direction.
Warm weather - Forward (counter clockwise) A downward airflow creates a
cooling effect as shown in Fig. 18. This allows you to set your air
conditioner on a warmer setting without affecting your comfort.
Cool weather - Reverse (clockwise) An upward airflow moves warm air off
the ceiling area as shown in Fig. 19. This allows you to set your heating unit
on a cooler setting without affecting your comfort.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Solution
Fan will not
start. 1. Check circuit fuses or breakers.
2. Check all electrical connections to ensure proper contact. CAUTION: Make sure the main power is OFF
when checking any electrical connection.
Fan sounds noisy. 1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade brackets to the motor are tight.
3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rubbing against each other or the interior wall of theswitch housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.
4. Allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period. Most noise associated with a new fan disappear during this time.
5. If using an optional light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight.Make sure the light bulbs
are not touching any other component.
6. Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from solid-state variable speed controls. If you have installed this
type of control, choose and install another type of control.
7. Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.
Fan wobble. 1. Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.
2. Most fan wobbling 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 this distance. Rotate the fan until the next blade is
positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. The distance deviation should be equal within 1/8”.
3. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.
4. If the blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side) blades can redistribute the
weight and possibly result in smoother operation.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY AND TO ENUSRE THE PROPER
OPERATION OF YOUR CEILING FAN, NEVER ATTACH THE BLADE ASSEMBLIES UNTIL THE
CEILING FAN HAS BEEN MOUNTED ON THE CEILING. DO NOT BEND THE BLADE ARMS WHILE
INSTALLING, BALANCING OR CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT INSERT FOREIGN OBJECTS
BETWEEN ROTATING FAN BLADES.
