Mounting Options
If there isn’t an existing electrical box, then
read the following instructions. Disconnect
the power by removing fuses or turning off
circuit breakers.
Secure the electrical box directly to the building
structure. Use appropriate fasteners and
building materials. The electrical box and
its support must be able to fully support the
moving weight of the fan (at least 35 lbs.).
Do not use plastic electrical boxes.
Figures 1, 2, and 3 are examples of different
ways to mount the electrical box.
Note: You may need a longer downrod to
maintain proper blade clearance when installing
on a steep, sloped ceiling. The maximum
angle allowable is 30˚. If the canopy touches
downrod, remove the decorative canopy
bottom cover and turn the canopy 180˚ before
attaching the canopy to the mounting plate.
To hang your fan where there is an existing
xture but no ceiling joist, you may need an
installation hanger bar as shown in Figure 4.

Making the Electrical
Connections
REMEMBER to disconnect the power. If
you feel you do not have enough electrical
wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan
installed by a licensed electrician.
Follow the steps below to connect the fan to
your household wiring. Use the wire
connecting nuts supplied with your fan and
supplied with remote control. Secure the
connectors with electrical tape. Make sure
there are no loose strands or
connections. (Figure 10)
1. Connect the ground conductor of the 120v
supply (this may be a bare wire or a wire
with green colored insulation) to the green
ground lead(s) of the fan (Figure 10).
2. Connect the fan motor white wire to the
receiver white wire using a wire nut (Figure
10).
3. Connect the fan motor black wire to the
receiver black wire using a wire nut (Figure
10).
4. Connect the fan motor blue wire to the
receiver blue wire using a wire nut (Figure
10).
6.
5. Connect the receiver black wire to the
supply black (hot) wire using a wire nut
(Figure 10).
6. Connect the receiver white wire to the
supply white (neutral) wire using a wire nut
(Figure 10).
7. After connecting the wires, spread them
apart so that the green and white wires are
one side of the electrical box and the black
wire is on the other side.
8. Turn the wire connecting nuts upward and
carefully push the wiring into the electrical
box.

Attaching the Fan
Blades
1. Attach a blade to the blade bracket using the
screws supplied and tightened frmly.(Figure 12)
2. Attach the blade assembly to the fan motor
housing by inserting the blade assembly into
slots in the side of the fan motor housing using
the screws supplied and tightened frmly. (Figure 12)
3. Repeat steps 1 & 2 for the remaining blades.
Figure 11
Blade Balancing
All blades are grouped by weight. Because natural
woods vary in density, the fan may wobble even
though the blades are weight matched.
The following procedure should correct most fan
wobble. Check after each step.
1. Check that all blade screws are secure.
2. 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 from a point on the
center of each blade to the point on the ceiling.
Measure this distance as shown in Figure 13.
Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned
for measurement. Repeat for each blade.
Measurements deviation should be within 1/8”.
Run the fan for 10 minutes.
3. Make sure that canopy is tightened securely to
ceiling mounting bracket and that the ceiling
mounting bracket is tightened securely to the
electrical box.
4. Interchanging two adjacent blades can
redistribute the weight and possibly result in the
smoother operation.
5. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the
blade wobble is still noticeable.
