Installation work an electrical wiring must be one by qualifie person(s) in accor ance with all applicable co es an stan ar s(ANSI/NFPA 70-
1996), inclu ing fire-rate construction.
Use this unit only in the manner inten e by the manufacurer. If you have any questions contact the manufacturer.
After making the wire connections, the wires shoul be sprea apart with the groun e con uctor an the equipment-groun ing con uctor on
one si e of the outlet box an ungroun e con uctor on the other si e of the outlet box.
Before you begin installing the fan, Switch power off at Service panel an lock service isconnecting means to prevent power from being
switche on acci entally. When the service isconnecting means cannot be locke , securely fasten a prominent warning evice, such as a tag,
to the service panel.
Be cautious! rea all instructions an safety information before installing your new fan. Review the accompanying assembly iagrams.
When cutting or rilling into wall or ceiling, o not amage electrical wiring an other hi en utilities.
Make sure the installation site you choose allows the fan bla es to rotate without any obstructions. Allow a minimum clearance of 7 feet from the
floor to the trailing e ge of the bla e.
To re uce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury, mount to outlet box or supporting system marke suitable for fan support.
(Mounting must support at least 35 lbs.)
Do not ben bla e hol ers uring installation to motor, balancing or uring cleaning. Do not insert foreign object between rotating bla es.
Attach the mounting bracket using only the har ware supplie with the outlet box.
To re uce the risk of fire or electric shock, o not use this fan with any soli state fan spee control evice, or variable spee control.
If this unit is to be installe over a tub or shower, it must be marke as appropriate for the application.
NEVER place a switch where it can be reache from a tub or shower.

American Society for Heating, Refrigeration an Air Con itioning Engineers (ASHRAE) an the local co e authorities.
Before servicing or cleaning unit, Switch power off at Service panel an lock service isconnecting means to prevent power from being switche
on acci entally. When the service isconnecting means cannot be locke , securely fasten a prominent warning evice, such as a tag, to the
service panel.
Attach bla e bracket to bla es by first
fitting ecorative trim into the three

Carefully insert remote receiver into the
Mounting Bracket. Make sure the Antenna is
not pinche by running it through the Mount-

locate as picture above(FIG.B). Make wiring
connections as per step 12. Make sure
that all wire nut connections are tight
with no expose con uctors. Point
connectors upwar an push into the
junction box.

Before installing the remote receiver. Make sure
the DIP switches in the Transmitter an receiver
are set the same. Use instrument with a sharp
point to move the switches into the proper
positions. The Remote will not operate if this
proce ure is not one. If interference from
outsi e transmitters or other remote
evices is incountere , change the ip
switch settings on both transmitter an
receiver.
Carefully lift fan assembly onto
mounting bracket. Rotate fan so that
the notch on the ball engages the
ri ge in the mounting bracket. This
will allow han s-free wiring.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Check main an branch circuit fuses or circuit breakers.
Check line wire connections to fan an switch wire connections in switch housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is turne off.
Make sure forwar /reverse switch is firmly in up or own position. Fan will not operate when
switch is in the mi le.
Check to make sure all screws in motor housing are snug (not over tightene ).
Check to make sure the screws which attach the fan bla e hol er to the motor are tight.
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 turne off before entering switch housing.
Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from Soli State variable spee controls. DO NOT
USE a Soli State variable spee control.
Allow "break-in" perio of 24 hours. Most noises associate with a new fan will isappear after
this perio .
All bla es are weighe an groupe by weight. Natural woo s vary in ensity which coul cause
the fan to wobble even though all bla es are weight-matche . The following proce ures shoul
eliminate most of the wobble. Check for wobble after each step.
Check that all bla es are screwe firmly into bla e hol ers.
Check that all bla e hol ers are tightene securely to motor.
Make sure that canopy an mounting bracket are tightene securely to ceiling junction box an
junction box is mounte firmly to ceiling joist.
Most fan wobble problems are cause when bla e levels are unequal. Check this level by
selecting a point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the bla es. Measure this istance as
shown in Figure 1. Keeping measure within 1/8", rotate the fan until the next bla e is posi-
tione for measurement. Repeat for each bla e. If all bla e levels are not equal, you can a just
bla e levels by the following proce ure. To a just a bla e tip own, insert a washer (not
supplie ) between the bla e an bla e hol er at the screw closest to the motor (Figure 2). To
a just a bla e tip up, insert washer (not supplie ) between the bla e an bla e hol er at the
two screws farthest from the motor (Figure 2).(Note: For fans with floating bla e hol ers,
washers must be place on the top of the bla e an un er the bla e arm. Washer on outer-
most holes will cause the bla es to point own an washers on the inner screws will cause the
bla e to point up.
If bla e wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two a jacent (si e by si e) bla es can re is-
tribute the weight an possibly result in smoother operation.
Check blue wire from fan to make sure it is connecte to blue wire from Remote Receiver.
Check for loose or isconnecte wires in fan switch housing.
Check for faulty light bulbs.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is turne off before entering switch housing.
