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°.

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. 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.
2. Fan is noisy
3. Fan wobbles
