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 conductor on one side of the
outlet box and ungrounded conductor on the other side of the outlet box. The splices, after being made, should be turned upward and pushed carefully up
into the outlet box.
WARNING: Before you begin installing the fan, servicing or cleaning unit, 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.
WARNING: To Reduce The Risk f Fire, Electric Shock, or Personal Injury, Mount To utlet Box Marked “Acceptable for Fan Support of
15.9 kg (35 lbs) or less” And Use Mounting Screws Provided With The utlet Box.
CAUTION: For Compliance with Local Codes and Regulations, If Installing The Secondary Support Safety Cable in the U.S., Do Not Re-
move Knockouts In The utlet Box. Mount the secondary support safety cable through the reserved nail/screw hole on the outlet box to
the building structure (or the ceiling joist).
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, 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.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, this fan must be installed with an isolating wall control/switch.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this fan with any solid state fan speed control device, or variable speed control.
If this unit is to be installed over a tub or shower, it must be marked as appropriate for the application.
Never place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.
The combustion airflow needed for safe operation of fuel-burning equipment may be affected by this unit’s operation. Follow the heating equipment manufac-
turer’s guideline safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating, Refrigera-
tion and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the local code authorities.

connecting means to prevent power from being
switched on accidentally. When the service dis-
connecting means cannot be locked, securely
fasten a prominent warning device, such as a
tag, to the service panel.
Before installing this fan make sure the outlet box is
properly installed to the house structure. To reduce
the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury,
mount to outlet box or supporting system acceptable
for fan support. (Mounting must support at least 35
lbs.)
Use metal outlet box suitable for fan support
(must support 35 lbs). Before attaching fan to
outlet box, ensure the outlet box is securley
fastened by at least two points to a structural
ceiling member ( a loose box will cause the fan
to wabble). Use only the screws provided
with the outlet ox.

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 efore entering switch housing.
4.If using an optional Ceiling Fan Light Kit, check to be sure the screws securing the glass-
ware are finger tight. Check to be sure light bulb is tight in socket and not touching glass
shade(s). If vibration persists from glass, remove glass and install a 1/4" wide rubber band
on glass neck to act as an insulator. Replace glass and tighten screws against rubber band.
5.Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from Solid State variable speed controls. DO NOT
USE a Solid State varia le speed control.
6.Allow "break-in" period of 24 hours. Most noises associated with a new fan will disappear
after this period.
1.If this is a downrod mount fan, make sure the ridge on mounting bracket engages the
notch in the downrod ball.
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 junction 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 posi-
tioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. If all blade levels are not equal, you can ad-
just 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 re-
distribute 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 ul s are installed.
Reset the lights y turning off the wall switch, reaker,or y remote. Replace ul s
with the correct wattage ul s, turn the power on.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is turned off efore entering switch housing.
2. If fan sounds noisy:
1. If fan does not start:
3. If fan wobbles:
4. If light does not work:
