SAFETY RULES
1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has been
turned o 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: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or
personal injury, use mounting screws provided with the
outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly used for the
support of light fixtures are not acceptable for fan support
and may need to be replaced. Due to the complexity of
the installation of this fan, a qualified licensed electrician is
strongly recommended.
4. 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”.
5. The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 feet
clearance from the trailing edge of the blades to the floor.
6. Do not operate reversing switch while fan blades are in motion.
Fan must be turned o and blades stopped before reversing blade
direction.
7. Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.
8. To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be
cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.
9. 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.
10. 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.
11. 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 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.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR
PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT FAN TO OUTLET BOX

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 o 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 dierent 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)

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.
