1. Safety Rules
For operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting information, visit modernforms.com/help.
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
“ANSI/NFPA 70” and local electrical codes. Electrical installation
should be performed by a qualied licensed
and insured electrician.
3. The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted
and capable of reliably supporting a minimum
of 35 lbs (15.9 kg). Use only UL-listed outlet boxes marked
“FOR FAN SUPPORT.”
4. The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 ft. (2.1m)
clearance from the trailing edge of the blades to the oor.
5. Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.
6. To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other
items, be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.
7. Do not use chemicals when cleaning the fan or fan blades.
A dry dust cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be suitable
for most cleaning.
8. After making electrical connections, spliced conductors
should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into
the outlet box. The wires should be spread apart with
the grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding
conductor on one side of the outlet box and ungrounded
conductor on the other side of the outlet box.
9. All set screws must be checked and re-tightened where
necessary before installation.
