1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure
electricity has been turned off at the circuit
breaker or fuse box before beginning.
2. All wiring must be in accordance with the
National Electrical Code and local electrical
codes. Electrical installation should be
performed by a qualified licensed electrician.
3. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical
shock and fire, do not use this fan with any
solid-state fan speed control device.
4. WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal
injury, use only the two steel screws (and lock
washers) provided with the outlet box for
mounting to the outlet box. Most outlet boxes
commonly used for the support of lighting
fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and
may need to be replaced, consult a qualified
electrician if in doubt.
5. The outlet box and support structure must be
securely mounted and capable of reliably
supporting a minimum of 50 pounds. Use only
UL Listed outlet boxes marked "FOR FAN
SUPPORT".
6. The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7
feet clearance from the trailing edge of the
blades to the floor.
7. Do not operate reversing switch while fan
blades are in motion. Fan must be turned off
and blades stopped before reversing blade
direction.
8. Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.
9. To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan
and other items, be cautious when working
around or cleaning the fan.
10. Do not use water or detergents when cleaning
the fan or fan blades. A dry dust cloth or
lightly dampened cloth will be suitable for most
cleaning.
11. After marking electrical connections, spliced
conductors should be turned upward and
pushed carefully up into outlet box. The wires
should be spread apart with the grounded
conductor and the equipment-grounding
conductor on one side of the outlet box.
12. Electrical diagrams are reference only. Light kit
that are not packed with the fan must be UL
Listed and marked suitable for use with the
model fan you are installing. Switches must be
UL General Use Switches. Refer to the
Instructions packaged with the light kits and
switches for proper assembly.

3. SAFETY RULES
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT
FAN TO OUTLET BOX MARKED
"ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT".
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL
INJURY, DO NOT BEND THE BLADE
BRACKETS (ALSO REFERRED TO AS
FLANGES) DURING ASSEMBLY OR AFTER
INSTALLATION. DO NOT INSERT OBJECTS IN
THE PATH OF THE BLADES.

4. MOUNTING OPTIONS
If there isn't an existing UL listed mounting box,
then read the following instructions. Disconnect the
power by removing fuses or turning off circuit
breakers.
Secure the outlet box directly to the building
structure. Use appropriate fasteners and building
materials. The outlet box and its support must be
able to fully support the moving weight of the fan
(at least 50 lbs). Do not use plastic outlet boxes.
Figures 1,2 and 3 are examples of different ways to
mount the outlet box.
Note: You may need a longer downrod to maintain
proper blade clearance when installing on a steep,
sloped ceiling. (Fig. 3)
To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture
but no ceiling joist, you may need an installation
hanger bar as shown in Figure 4.

6. HANGING THE FAN
REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow the steps
below to hang your fan properly. NOTE: This ceiling
fan is supplied with two types of hanging
assemblies; the standard ceiling installation using
the downrod with ball and socket mounting and the
"close-to-ceiling" installation. The "close-to-ceiling"
installation is recommended in rooms with less than
8-feet ceilings or in areas where additional space is
desired from the floor to the fan blades.
STANDARD CEILING INSTALLATION
Step 1. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through the
center hole in the ceiling hanger bracket as shown in
Fig. 6.
Step 2. Secure the hanger bracket to the ceiling
outlet box with the screws and washers included
with mounting hardware (Fig.6).
Step 3. Remove the hanger pin, lock pin and set
screws from the top of the motor assembly.
Step 4. Route wires exiting from the top of the fan
motor through the canopy, coupling cover and then
through the ball/downrod. (Fig. 7)
Step 5. Align the holes at the bottom of the downrod
with the holes in the collar on top of the motor
housing. Carefully insert the hitch pin through the
holes in the collar and downrod. Be careful not to
jam the pin against the wiring inside the downrod.
Insert the locking pin through the hole near the end
of the hitch pin until it snaps into its locked position.
(Fig. 7)
Step 6. Tighten two set screws on top of the fan
motor firmly.
Step 7. Place the downrod ball into the hanger
bracket socket. This will allow you to make the
electrical connections. (Fig. 8)

Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your
household wiring. Use the wire connecting nuts
supplied with your fan. Secure the connectors with
electrical tape. Make sure there are no loose
strands or connections.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR OTHER PERSONAL
INJURY. MOUNT FAN ONLY ON AN OUTLET
BOX OR SUPPORTING SYSTEM MARKED
ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT.

12. TROUBLESHOOTING
11. CARE OF YOUR FAN
Here are some suggestions to help you maintain your fan
1. Because of the fan's natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check the support
connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. (It is not
necessary to remove fan from ceiling.)
2. Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the years. Use only a soft brush or
lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish. The plating is sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration
or tarnishing. Do not use water when cleaning. This could damage the motor, or the wood, or possibly
cause an electrical shock.
3. You can apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood blades for additional protection and enhanced
beauty. Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.
4. There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated bearings.
IMPORTANT: MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX BEFORE YOU
ATTEMPT ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION "MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS".
Problem
Fan will not start.
Fan sounds noisy.
Solution
1. Check circuit fuses or breakers.
2. Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch
housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.
1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub is tight.
3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rubbing against each other or the interior
wall of the switch housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.
4. Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noise associated with a new fan
disappear during this time.
5. If using an optional light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight.
Check that light bulb is also secure.
6. Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from solid-state variable speed controls.
If you have installed this type of control, choose and install another type of control.
7. Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not
touch the ceiling.
