Choose one of the following mounting options:
Closemount method is best suited for ceilings lower than 8 feet. It does not utilize the downrod.
Downrod Mount is best suited for ceilings 8 ft. or higher. For taller ceilings you may want to use a longer downrod
(not included).
Angled Ceiling Mount is best suited for angled or vaulted ceilings. A longer downrod is sometimes necessary to
ensure proper blade clearance from the ceiling. If using the angle mount, check to ensure the ceiling angle is not
steeper than 16°.

WARNING
READ ALL SAFETY INFORMATION AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE YOU BEGIN INSTALLING THE
FAN AND SAVE INSTRUCTIONS.
Check set screws and re-tighten where necessary before installation.
To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the blade arms when installing the blade arms, balancing
the blades or cleaning fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between rotating fan blades.
Before changing the fan direction, turn o the fan and wait for the fan blades to stop completely.
NOTE: The safeguards provided by these safety instructions and by the separate installation instructions
are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood that
common sense, caution and care are factors which can not be built into this product. These factors must be
supplied by the person(s) installing, caring for and operating the fan.
TO AVOID RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, BE SURE TO SHUT OFF POWER AT THE MAIN FUSE OR CIRCUIT
BREAKER BOX BEFORE INSTALLING OR SERVICING THIS FIXTURE. TURNING OFF THE ELECTRICAL POWER
BY USING THE LIGHT SWITCH IS NOT SUFFICIENT TO PREVENT ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY, INSTALL THE FAN SO THAT THE BLADES ARE AT LEAST 7 FEET (2.1
METERS) ABOVE THE FLOOR AND AT LEAST 30 INCHES (0.5 METERS) FROM THE TIP OF THE BLADES TO
THE WALL.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT TO OUTLET BOX MARKED
“ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT” AND USE MOUNTING SCREWS PROVIDED WITH THE OUTLET BOX.
THE INSTALLATION HAS TO BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA
70-1999 AND LOCAL CODES. IF YOU ARE UNFAMILIAR WITH THE METHODS OF INSTALLING ELECTRICAL
WIRING, SEEK THE SERVICES OF A QUALIFIED LICENSED ELECTRICIAN.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Use the fan reverse switch, located on the switch
housing to optimize your fan for seasonal performance.
Using a ceiling fan will allow you to raise your thermostat
setting in summer and lower your thermostat setting in
winter without feeling a dierence in your comfort.
Note: Wait for the fan to stop before moving the reverse
switch.
In warmer weather, push the reverse switch down which
will result in downward airow creating a wind chill eect.
In cooler weather, push the reverse switch up which will
result in upward airow that can help move stagnant, hot
air o the ceiling area.

If you have diculty operating your new ceiling fan, it may be the result of incorrect assembly, installation or
wiring. In some cases, these installation errors may be mistaken for defects. If you experience any faults, please
check the Troubleshooting section below. If a problem cannot be remedied or you are experiencing diculty in
installation, please contact the Service Department: 1-877-459-3267, 9 a.m.- 5 p.m. Central time.
PROBLEM SUGGESTED REMEDY
1. Fan does not start 1. Turn on wall switch, and check fuses or circuit breakers.
2. Check power supply wire connections to fan and switch wire connections in switch
housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is turned o before entering canopy.
3. Make sure forward/reverse switch pushed completely up or down. Fan will not
operate when switch is in the middle.
4. Make sure that the wall switch is turned ON.
1. Make sure all screws in motor housing are snug, but not overtightened.
2. Make sure the motor screws which attach the blade arm to the motor are tight.
3. Make sure wire 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 o before entering switch housing.
4. If using a light kit, be sure the glass shades are nger tight. Check to be sure light
bulbs are snug in sockets and not touching glass shade(s). If vibration persists from
glass, remove glass and install a 1/4 in. wide rubber band on glass neck to act as an
insulator. Replace glass and tighten screws against rubber band.
5. Using a full-range dimmer to control fan speed will cause humming noise from
the fan. To reduce risk of re or electrical shock, do NOT use a full range dimmer to
control fan.
1. Ensure all blades are screwed rmly into blade arms.
2. Ensure all blade arms are tightened securely to motor.
3. Ensure canopy and mounting bracket are tightened securely to outlet box and
outlet box is mounted rmly to ceiling joist.
4. Switch one blade with a blade from the opposite side. Or balance the fan using the
balancing kit.
5. If blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side) blades
can redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother operation.
1. Ensure the single-pin connectors from the switch housing are securely connected
to the single-pin connectors from the light kit -- blue to black and white to white.
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.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is turned o before entering switch housing.
2. Fan is noisy
3. Fan wobbles
4. Light does not work
