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: Not 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 ETL 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. To operate the reverse function on this fan,
press the reverse button while the fan is
running.
8. WARNING: Use only with light kit marked
"Suitable for Use in Wet Locations".
9. Avoid placing objects in the path of the
blades.
10. To avoid personal injury or damage to the
fan and other items, be cautious when
working around or cleaning the fan.
11. 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.
12. After marking 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.
13. Electrical diagrams are reference only.
Light kits that are not packed with the fan
must be ETL Listed and marked suitable
for use with the model fan you are
installing. Switches must be ETL 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.

If there isn't an existing ETL 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)

REMEMBER to turn off the power before you
begin.
To properly install your ceiling fan, follow the
steps below.
Step 1. Remove the decorative canopy
bottom cover from the canopy by turning the
cover counter clockwise. (Fig. 5)
Step 2. Remove the ceiling mounting bracket
from the canopy by removing (and save one
of the two screws. Loosen the remaining
screw by a half turn. (Fig. 5)
Step 3. Pass the 120 volt supply wires from
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
downrod assembly by loosening the set
screw, removing the cross pin and
unscrewing the ball off the rod. (Fig.7)
Step 6. Loosen the two set screws and
remove the hitch pin and retaining clip from
the coupling on top of the motor assembly.
(Fig. 8)
Step 7. Carefully feed the electrical lead wires
from the fan up through the downrod. Thread
the downrod into the coupling until the Hitch
pin holes are aligned.
Next, replace the hitch pin and retaining clip.
Tighten both set screws. (Fig. 8)

The entire motor assembly should not rotate
(left or right) when seated properly.
WARNING: Failure to reattach the cross pin
and seat the "Check Tab" can cause the fan
to fall from the ceiling during operation. Take
special care to make sure this pin is
reattached.

6. INSTALLATION OF SAFETY SUPPORT
(required for Canadian installation ONLY)
A safety support cable is provided to help
prevent the ceiling fan from falling, please
install it as follows.
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: To avoid possible electrical shock,
be sure you have turned off the power at the
main circuit panel.
Follow the steps below to connect the fan to
your household wiring. Use the wire
connecting nuts suppled with your fan. Secure
the connectors with electrical tape. Make sure
there are no loose wire strands or connections.
Step 1. Connect the fan supply (black) wire to
the black household supply wire as shown in
Figure 12.
Step 2. Connect the neutral fan (white) wire to
the neutral household (white) wire.
Step 3. Connect the fan ground wire (green) to
the household ground wire.
Step 4. After connecting the wires, spread
them apart so that the green and white wires
are on one side of the outlet box and the black
and blue wires are on the other side.
Step 5. Turn the connecting nuts upward and
push the wiring into the outlet box.

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. Rotate the canopy until the screw
head locks in 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.
NOTE: Adjust the canopy screws as
necessary 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.
