Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with applicable codes ANSI/NFPA 70-1999),
including fire-rated construction.
Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have any questions contact the manufacturer.
After making the wire connections, the wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding con-
ductor on one side of the outlet box and ungrounded conductor on the other side of the outlet box.
Before you begin installing the fan, Switch power off at Service panel and lock service disconnecting means to prevent power from
being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device,
such as a tag, to the service panel.
Be cautious! read all instructions and safety information before installing your new fan. Review the accompanying assembly diagrams.
When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
Make sure the installation site you choose allows the fan blades to rotate without any obstructions. Allow a minimum clearance of 7
feet from the floor to the trailing edge of the blade.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury, mount to outlet box or supporting system acceptable for fan support and
use only the screws provided with the outlet box. (Mounting must support at least 35 lbs.)
Do not bend blade holders during installation to motor, balancing or during cleaning. Do not insert foreign object between rotating
blades.
Attach the mounting bracket using only the hardware supplied with the outlet box.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, this fan must be installed with an isolating wall control/switch.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, this fan should only be used with fan speed control part no. UC7067RC manufactured by
Rhine Electronic Co., Ltd. Suitable for use with solid-state speed controls.
The combustion airflow needed for safe operation of fuel-burning equipment may be affected by this unit’s operation. Follow the heat-
ing equipment manufacturer’s guideline safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA),
and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the local code authorities.
Before servicing or cleaning unit, Switch power off at Service panel and lock service disconnecting means to prevent power from being

Installation
Use metal outlet box suitable for fan support
and use only the screws provided with the out-
let box (must support 35 lbs). Before attaching
fan to outlet box, ensure the outlet box is
securely fastened by at least two points to a
structural ceiling member ( a loose box will
cause the fan to wobble). Use only the
screws provided with the outlet box.

For Canadian installation in both flush and down-
rod mode the safety cable must be installed into
the house structure beams using the 3” lag screws
provided. Make sure that when the safety cable is
fully extended the leadwires are longer than the
cable and no stress is placed on the leadwires.
Hang assembled fan from the mounting bracket
installed to ceiling in previous step. Make sure the
fan is hanging straight. Rotate fan until the tab on
the Mounting bracket engages the slot on the
Downrod Ball. This must be done to prevent the fan
body from rotating when the blades are in motion.

1.Check main and branch circuit fuses or circuit breakers.
2.Check line wire connections to fan and switch wire connections in switch housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is turned off.
3.Make sure forward/reverse switch is firmly in up or down position. Fan will not operate when switch
is in the middle.
4.Make sure that shipping stabilizer tabs have been removed from motor.
1.Check to make sure all screws in motor housing are snug (not over tightened).
2.Check to make sure the screws which attach the fan blade holder to the motor are tight.
3.Check to make sure wire nut connectors in switch housing are not rattling against each other or
against the interior wall of the switch housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is turned off before entering switch housing.
4.Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from Solid State variable speed controls.
DO NOT USE a Solid State variable speed control.
5.Allow "break-in" period of 24 hours. Most noises associated with a new fan will disappear after this
period.
1.Make sure that the ridge of the canopy engages the notch in the downrod ball. (See illustration in
Step #6 of Downrod Mount installation).
2.Check that all blades are screwed firmly into blade holders.
3.Check that all blade holders are tightened securely to motor.
4.Make sure that canopy and mounting bracket are tightened securely to ceiling junction box and junc-
tion box is mounted firmly to ceiling joist.
5.Most fan wobble problems are caused when blade levels are unequal. Check this level by selecting a
point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades. Measure this distance from blade tip to ceilng.
Keeping measure within 1/8", rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat
for each blade. If all blade levels are not equal, you can adjust blade levels by the following procedure.
To adjust a blade tip down, insert a washer (not supplied) between the blade and blade holder at the
screw closest to the motor. To adjust a blade tip up, insert washer (not supplied) between the blade and
blade holder at the two screws farthest from the motor. Reverse the position of the washer if blades
mount from top of blade.
6.If blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side) blades can redistribute
the weight and possibly result in smoother operation.
1.Check blue wire from fan to make sure it is connected to hot wire from house.
2.Check for loose or disconnected wires in fan switch housing.
3.Check for loose or disconnected wires in light kit.
4.Check for faulty light bulbs.
WARNING: Over lamping the fan will result in the fan lights shutting down until
the proper wattage of bulbs are installed. Reset the lights by turning off the wall
switch, breaker,or by remote. Replace bulbs with the correct wattage bulbs, turn the power
on.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is turned off before entering switch housing and/ or
canopy.
WARNING: Before attempting to replace the fuse make sure the main power is turned off to
the fan. Replace only with a 3 amp fuse. (Fuse is inside the canopy on the blue wire to
remote receiver, push and twist the cap to open the fuse case).
