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 qualied licensed electrician.
3. WARNING: To Reduce The Risk Of Fire Or
Electric Shock, Do Not Use This Fan With
Any Solid-State Speed Control Device. Only
use the remote control provided by ceiling
fan manufacturer.
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
xtures are not acceptable for fan support
and may need to be replaced, consult a
qualied 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 10 feet clearance from the trailing edge of
the blades to the oor.
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 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.
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.
12. Suitable for commercial or industrial use.

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)

5. HANGING THE FAN
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
counterclockwise. (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 and discard the three screws
securing the plastic stabilizer on the bottom of
motor housing. Remove and discard the plastic
stabilizer. (Fig. 7)
Step 6. Remove the hanger ball from the
downrod assembly by loosening the setscrew,
removing the cross pin and turning the ball off
the downrod. (Fig.8)

Step 7. Loosen the two setscrews and remove the
hitch pin and retaining clip from the coupling on top
of the motor assembly. (Fig. 9)
Step 8. Carefully route the electrical supply
wires and safety cable exiting the top of the fan
motor assembly through the downrod. Thread the
downrod into the coupling until the hitch pin holes
are aligned. (Fig. 9)
Next, replace the hitch pin and retaining clip.
Tighten both setscrews. (Fig. 9)
Step 9. Slip the coupling cover, canopy cover and
canopy onto the downrod. (Fig. 10)
Thread the hanger ball onto the downrod, insert the
cross pin through the downrod and tighten. Now
tighten the set screw. (Fig. 10)
Step 10. Lift the motor assembly into position and
place the hanger ball into the ceiling mounting
bracket.
Rotate the entire assembly until the “Check Tab”
has dropped into the “Registration Slot” and seats
rmly. (Fig. 11)
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. 12)
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 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.
7. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
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
supplied 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 wire (black) to the black
household supply wire. (Fig. 13)
Step 2. Connect the neutral fan supply wire (white) to
the neutral household wire (white).
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 wires are on the other side.
Step 5. Turn the connecting nuts upward and push the
wiring into the outlet box.
