Unpack your fan and check the contents. Do not discard the carton. If warranty
replacement or repair is ever necessary the fan should be returned in original packaging.
Remove all parts and hardware. Do not lay motor housing on its side - because the
decorative casing may shift. Check all visible screws, bolts and nuts for tightness.
Examine all parts. The following parts should be included:
2. UNPACKING YOUR FAN
NOTE:
Some Oxygen fan models will have slightly
different parts than what is shown here
depending upon the design you have chosen.
Basic installation procedures are similar for
all models.
IF YOU FIND THAT PARTS ARE MISSING. CONTACT YOUR DEALER FOR REPLACEMENT, OR CALL OXYGEN DIRECTLY AND WE WILL MAIL REPLACEMENTS TO YOU IMMEDIATELY.
1. To avoid possible electric shock, turn
off the electricity at the main fuse box or
circuit panel before you begin the fan
installation or before servicing the fan or
installing accessories.
2. Read all instructions and safety
information carefully before installing
your fan and save these instructions.
3. Make sure all electrical connections
comply with local codes or ordinances as
well as the National Electrical Code. If
you are unfamiliar with electric wiring,
please use a qualified and licensed
electrician.
4. Make sure you have a location
selected for your fan which allows clear
space for the blades to rotate, and at lease
seven (7) feet of clearance between the
floor and the fan blade tips.
5. The outlet box and ceiling support
joist used must be securely mounted, and
capable of supporting at least 50
pounds. To reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock, or personal injury, use only
an outlet box clearly labeled "Acceptable
For Fan Support".
6. To reduce the risk of personal injury
use only approved hanging brackets and
screws supplied with the outlet box for
mounting to the outlet box.
7. After installation is complete, check
that all connections are absolutely secure.
8. Do not insert anything into the fan
blades while they are rotating.
9. To operate the reverse function on the
fan, press the reverse button on the wall
transmitter while the fan is running.
10. Do not attempt to control the

3. MOUNTING OPTIONS
1. Disconnect the power by removing fuses
or turning off circuit breakers.
2. If there is an existing outlet box, ensure it
is clearly marked "Suitable for Fan Support".
If it is not so marked, it must be replaced
with an approved one.
3. Secure the outlet box (or make sure the
existing box is secured) directly to the
building structure. Use appropriate fasteners
and building materials.
4. Figures 1,2 and 3 are examples of
different ways to mount the outlet box in
different situations. A longer downrod may
be required in sloped ceiling situations to
maintain proper blade clearance.
5. To hang the fan in locations where no
ceiling joist is available, a hanger support bar
may be required (Figure 3). Hanger support
bars are available at most area home centers.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE, OR PERSONAL INJURY,
MOUNT THE FAN ONLY TO AN OUTLET MARKED ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT AND USE
MOUNTING SCREWS PROVIDED WITH THE OUTLET BOX.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, INSTALL THE PRIMARY MOUNTING MEANS AND USE ONLY THE HARDWARE
PROVIDED WITH THE FAN.

WARNING -Turn off the power!
DO NOT fasten the blades to the fan until
it is assembled and hanging from the
ceiling. To do so now will likely bend the
blade arms and almost certainly cause
wobble.
1. If not already affixed to the hanger
bracket, place the rectangular rubber isolators
between the hanger bracket and outlet box.
Secure the hanger bracket to the outlet box
using the 2 long steel screws supplied with
the outlex box.
2. Remove the set pin and safety lock clip
from the yoke on top of the motor assembly.
Slide the downrod through the canopy and
canopy cover. Slide the yoke cover onto the
downrod (Fig. 5). Feed the wires from the
fan motor through the downrod assembly.
3. (Fig. 6) Attach the downrod assembly by
feeding the wires through the yoke cover,
canopy cover, canopy and downrod
assembly. Insert the downrod into the yoke.
Slide the set pin through the yoke and
downrod and secure with safety lock clip.
Tighten the screws on yoke. Lower the yoke
cover to conceal the yoke.
4. Lift the fan motor without the blades and
place into the hanger bracket, rotating the
ball until the groove engages the tab on the
hanger bracket. This locks the ball mount

NOTE: It may be necessary to bind
the house wires to the corresponding
receiver wires with electrical tape
before capping them with wire nuts.
This will prevent them from slipping
apart during the rest of the installation.
REV
Use ONLY wall controls approved by
OXYGEN. Use of unapproved wall
controls will cause unacceptable
humming noise, and avoids the fan
warranty.

1. Make sure the wiring is safely inside the
outlet box as instructed in Step 5 -
Electrical Connections. To install the
canopy, slide the canopy up to hanger
bracket and place the key hole on the
canopy over the screw on the hanger

8. FAN OPERATION AND CARE
Fig. 14
Fig. 15

8. FAN OPERATION AND CARE
1. A ceiling fan is an environmentally
smart choice to cool as well as to help
warm your home or office. Adjust your
HVAC thermostat during fan use to save
additional energy and money on your air
conditioning and heating utility bills. You
should see a significant reduction in both
your heating and cooling costs by regular
use of your fan.
Do not hesitate to use your fan during
summer and winter months. In summer,
(Fig. 16) using the reverse switch, adjust
the fan's direction so cool air is blown
down, producing a cooling breeze.
In winter, (Fig. 17) reverse the fan so that
an upward airflow will push warm air off
the ceiling and circulate it downwards
into the living area. In winter months, use
the fan at a lower speed than summer.
2. Periodically check tightness of all
screws securing the blades to the blade
arm attachment points. A clicking or a
rattling noise is a sure indication of
loosening screws. Since screws will
invariably work loose over time, at least
once a year, tighten all the screws
attaching blades to blade arms. Do not
bend blade arms when cleaning or
servicing the fan.
3. Clean you fan periodically using only
a cloth dampened with a mild detergent
solution for all hardware - never use
solvents. The finish plating is lacquered
to prevent tarnishing. Use a lint-free
cloth with clean water to clean blades.
4. You will never need to oil or lubricate
your fan. Its permanently sealed bearings
will provide trouble free, silent operation
for many years.
5. If repairs or servicing are ever
required, to avoid possible electric shock,
turn off the electricity at the main fuse
or circuit panel before you begin.
Fig. 17
Fig. 16
WINTER

9. TROUBLESHOOTING
FAN WILL NOT START
1. Check that the electricity has been
turned on at the circuit breaker which had
probably been turned off during
installation.
2. Turn off the electricity. Check all
connections in the wiring of the fan at the
ceiling and make sure it follows the
wiring instructions outlined in this
manual.
3. Be sure ON/OFF power switch on the
wall control is in ON position.
4. Be sure the wall control is installed
within 30 feet of ceiling fan.
NOISE
Note: Always allow a day or two "run-in"
time for any new fan at medium or high
speed. When attempting to diagnose
noise, listen carefully from several sides
to try and isolate the location of the noise
(blade, upper end, motor, light kit, etc.)
1. Tighten all screws attaching blades to
blade arms. Remember to tighten these
screws at least once a year because they
may loosen slowly over time and cause a
clicking noise.
2. Turn off the power. Loosen the canopy
and check that the wiring and/or wire nut
connectors are not resting against the
canopy, possibly vibrating while the fan is
on.
3. Use of a standard light rheostat or an
unapproved fan wall control to control the
fan speed will always cause an annoying
"hum". Many fan motors do not work
quietly with solid state variable speed
controls.
4. Check that the rubber gasket on the
mounting bracket has been installed if
called for in the installation instructions.
5. Check that the canopy in not touching
the ceiling.
6. Check that all screws on the motor
housing and the bottom housing are tight.
FAN TURNS, BUT DOES NOT MOVE
MUCH AIR
1. The fan may be running in reverse.
The reverse switch located on transmitter
of “REV” button. (see Fig. 18)
2. The distance from the ceiling to the
blades may be too small. For downrod
fans, optimal placement would be 8-9 feet
from the floor.
3. The room may contain items which
obstruct the air flow.
4. The fan may be too small for the size
of the room.
EXCESSIVE WOBBLE
Note: A small amount of wobble is
considered acceptable and should not be
considered a defect.
1. Make certain all blades are tightly
attached to each blades' respective blade
arm.
