1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, insure
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 and local
electrical codes. Electrical installation
should be performed by a qualified
licensed electrician.
3. WARNING: Suitable for use with solid-
state speed controls.
4. 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.
5. 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".
6. The fan must be mounted with a minimum
of 7 feet clearance from the trailing edge of
the blades to the floor.
7. Do not operate reversing switch while fan
blades are in motion. Fan must be turned
off and blades stopped before reversing
blade direction.
8. Avoid placing objects in the path of the
blades.
9. To avoid personal injury or damage to the
fan and other items, be cautious when
working around or cleaning the fan.
10. 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.
11. After making the electrical connections,
spliced conductors should be turned
upward and pushed carefully up into
outlet box. The wires should be spread
apart with the ground wire and white
(common) wire to one side with the black
(load) wire to the other side of the outlet
box.
12. Electrical diagrams are reference only.
Light kits that are not packed with the fan
must be CUL Listed and marked suitable
for use with the model fan you are
installing. Switches must be CUL General
Use Switches. Refer to the Instructions
packaged with the light kits and switches
for proper assembly.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT
FAN TO OUTLET BOX MARKED
"ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT".
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.
Special Notice
This appliance is equipped with a "Wattage
Limiting Device" required by the United
States Department of Energy. The device
has been installed at the factory and can
not be removed.
Installing Lamps in excess of 190 total
watts will disable the unit's light fixture. If
this should happen, you will need to reset
the lighting fixture by turning the power off
to the ceiling fan and/or light fixture,
reinstalling lamps totaling less that 190
watts and then turning the power back on.

4. 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)

the ceiling outlet box through the center of the
ceiling mounting bracket. (Fig.6)
Step 4. Attach the ceiling mounting bracket to
the outlet box using the screws and washers
included with the outlet box. (Fig. 6)
Step 5. Remove the hanger ball from the

6. INSTALLATION OF SAFETY SUPPORT
(required for Canadian installation ONLY)
A safety support cable is provided to help
prevent the ceiling fan from falling.
Step 1. Attach the provided wood screw and
washers to the ceiling joist next to the
mounting bracket but do not tighten. (Fig. 11)
Step 2. Adjust the length of the safety cable to
reach the screw and washers by pulling the
extra cable through the cable clamp until the
overall length is correct, put the end of the
cable back through the cable clamp, forming a
loop at the end of the cable. Tighten the cable
clamp securely. Now, put the loop in the end of
the safety cable over the wood screw and
under the washer. Tighten the wood screw
securely.
NOTE: Although the safety support cable is
required for Canadian installations only. It's a
good idea to make the attachment with any
installation.

WARNING: Carefully read and retain this
Instruction Manual for future reference.
WARNING:To avoid possible electrical shock,
be sure the electricity is turned off at the main
panel by removing the fuse or opening the
circuit breaker.
WARNING:This control switch is designed for
use with "DC Motor Ceiling Fans" ONLY. DO
NOT use with any other type of electrical
appliance.
WARNING:All wiring must conform to national
and local electrical codes. If you feel you do not
have enough electrical knowledge, have a
licensed electrician install the control.
WARNING:The amperage for your fan should
not exceed 1A. The total wattage for the lights
300W.
Make each of the wire connections illustrated
in Figure 3. Secure each with the wire nuts
provided. (Fig. 12)
Step 1. Black wire going to the fan (motor) to
the Black wire from the Switch. (Fig. 12)
Step 2. In the Ceiling Outlet Box, connect the
White (neutral) wire coming from the Fan to
the White (neutral) wire from the Household
Supply. (Fig. 12)
Step 3. Connect the Black (AC IN L) from the
switch to the Black wire going to the
Household Supply. (Fig. 12)
Step 4. If your ceiling outlet box has a ground
wire (green or bare copper) connect it to the
ground wire from the ceiling fan and/or the
ceiling mounting bracket. (Fig. 12)

8. FINISHING THE INSTALLATION
Step 1. Tuck all the connections neatly into the
ceiling outlet box.
Step 2. Slide the canopy up to the mounting
bracket and place one of the key hole slots over
the mounting screw on the mounting bracket.

place at the narrow section of the key hole.
See figure 13.
Step 3. Align the remaining circular hole on the
canopy with the remaining hole on the Ceiling
Mounting Bracket. Insert and tighten the
mounting screw you removed earlier and the
mounting screw from Step 2 above. Now,
attach the canopy cover to the mounting screw
heads by inserting the screw heads into the
bottom side of the canopy cover and rotating
the cover clockwise.

until the canopy and canopy cover are snug.
(Fig. 13)
Warning: Make sure the "Check Tab" at the
bottom of the hanger bracket is properly seated
in the "Registration Slot" on the side of the
hanger ball before attaching the canopy to the
bracket. Failure to properly seat the "Check
Tab" could damage the electrical wires when to
ceiling fan blade direction is changed while the
fan is running.
