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.
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. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock, or Personal Injury, mount
directly to a structural framing member or
to an outlet box marked 'Acceptable for
Fan Support of 15.9 kg (35 lbs) or less'. For
outlet box mounting, use mounting screws
provided with the outlet box.
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. A few
seconds later the fan will slow to a stop and then
reverse 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 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 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)

5. HANGING THE FAN
REMEMBER to turn off the power before you
begin installation. This is necessary for your
safety and also the proper programming of the
control system.
To properly install your ceiling fan, follow the
steps below.
Step 1. Before attaching fan to outlet box
(not included), ensure the outlet box is securely
fastened to at least two points to a structural
ceiling member (a loose box will cause the fan
to wobble). Pass the 120 volt supply wires from
the ceiling outlet box through the center of the
ceiling mounting bracket. Install mounting
bracket to outlet box in ceiling using the screws
and washers included with the outlet box or
screws and washers in the hardware bag.
(Fig. 5)
Step 4. Slip the coupling cover, canopy trim ring
and canopy onto the downrod. Carefully reinstall
the hanger ball onto the downrod . Make sure the
cross pin is in the correct position and the set
screws are tight and the wires are not twisted .
( Fig. 8)
Step 2. Remove the hanger ball from downrod
assembly by loosening set screws , removing
the cross pin, and twisting ball out of the rod.
( Fig. 6)
Step 3. Loosen the two set screws and remove
the clip and cross pin from the top coupling of
the motor body.
Carefully feed the fan wires up through the
downrod. Thread the downrod onto the motor
coupling until the cross pin holes are aligned.
Next, replace the cross pin and clip, and tighten
both set screws. (Fig. 7)

Step 5. Now lift the motor body into position
and place the hanger ball into the hanger bracket.
Rotate until the "Check Tab" has dropped into
the "Registration Slot " and seats firmly. ( Fig. 9)
The entire motor body should not rotate is this is
done correctly.
6 . INSTALLATION OF SAFETY SUPPORT
(required for Canadian installation ONLY)
WARNING: Failure to properly seat the "Check
Tab" can damage the ceiling fan during operation.
A safety support cable is provided to help prevent
the ceiling fan from failing, please install it as
follows.
Step 1. Drive a wood screw and washers into the
side of the brace that holds the outlet box. Leave
3mm (1/8") of space between the support brace
and the washer. (Fig. 10)
NOTE: Although the safety support cable is
required for Canadian installations only. It’s a good
idea to make the attachment with any installation.
Step 2. Insert the safety cable through the
mounting bracket and one of the holes in the
outlet box into the ceiling. 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 lenght is correct, put the end of the
cable back through the cabel 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 cabel over the wood screw and under the
washer. Tighten the wood screw securely. (Fig. 11)

If you feel that you do not have enough electrical
wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan
installed by a licensed electricial.
Warning: To avoid possible electrical shock, be
sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box
before wiring.
Note: If you are not sure if the outlet box is
grounded, contact a license electricial for advice,
as it must be grounded for safe operation.
Step 1. Connect the GREEN grounding leads
to the grounding conductor of supply (this may
be a bare wire or wire with green colored insulation).
Securely connect wires with wire connector
supplied. (Fig. 12)
Step 2. Securely connect the fan WHITE wire to
the supply WHITE wire using wire connector
supplied. Securely connect the fan BLACK wire
to the supply BLACK wire using wire connector
supplied. (Fig. 12)
Step 3. After connections have been made, turn
leads upward and carefully push leads into the
outlet box, with the white and green leads on
one side of the outlet box and position
the black leads on the other side of the oulet box.

NOTE: Before continuing, make sure the power
is disconnected by turning off the circuit breaker
of removing the fuse at the circuit box.
Step 1. Position the blade over the blade arm
with threaded posts showing. Make sure the
bottom edge of the blade is fully seated against
the blade arm. With a Philips screwdrivr, start
a screw into the blade arm (do not tighten)
and repeat for the 2 remaining blade screws
and washers. Tighten each screw securely
starting with the center screw. Make sure the
blade is straight. Repeat steps for the
remaining blades. (Fig. 17)
Step 2. Remove and discard the three stabilizers
tabs and screws. Faster blade assembly to the
holes located on the bottom of the flywheel.
Tighten the two "pre- installed" motor screws
in the blade arm. Repeat steps for the remaining
blades assemblies. (Fig. 18)

12. WALL CONTROL INSTALLATION
NOTE: Make all wiring conenctions using wire
connectors (supplied). Make sure that all
connections are tight, including ground, and that
no bare wire is visible at the wire connectors,
except for the ground wire.
Step 1. Remove faceplate and screws from
existing wall control (if present). Pull control out
from the wall box. Determine the "hot" wire and
"load" wire and disconnect these wires from
control (Fig. 24). Do not attempt to disconnect any
wires not already connected to existing control.
Caution: To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
disconnect the electrical supply circuit before
installing the fan, light kit or receiver.
Step 4. If you want to install the steel cap and
not the light kit. Assemble the steel cap to the
switch housing by twisting in a clockwise
direction. (Fig. 23)
Step 3. Secure the glass shade to switch
housing by twisting in a clockwise direction.
Do not over-tighten. (Fig. 22)
