1. Safety Rules
To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has been turned off
at the circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning.
All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code
“ANSI/NFPA 70-1999” and local electrical codes. Electrical installation
should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.
The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted and
capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 35 lbs (15.9 kg) or less. Use
only cUL-listed outlet boxes marked “FOR FAN SUPPORT.”
The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 ft. (2.1m) clearance from
the trailing edge of the blades to the floor.
Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.
To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be
cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.
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.
After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should be turned
upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box. The wires should be
spread apart with the grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding
conductor on one side of the outlet box and ungrounded conductor on the
other side of the outlet box.
All set screws must be checked and retightened where necessary before
installation.
Suitable for use with solid-state speed control.1.

NOTE
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONALL INJURY, DO NOT BEND THE
BLADE ARMS (ALSO REFERRED TO AS FLANGES), WHEN
INSTALLING THE BRACKETS, BALANCING THE BLADES OR
CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT INSERT FOREIGN OBJECTS IN –
BETWEEN ROTATING FAN BLADES.
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 OF 35 LBS (15.9 KG)
OR LESS AND USE MOUNTING SCREWS PROVIDED WITH 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.

Unpack your fan and check the contents. You should have the following items:

Tools Required
Phillips screw driver, straight slot screw driver,
adjustable wrench, step ladder, and wire cutters.
Mounting Options
If there isn't an existing cUL 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 35 lbs). Do not use plastic outlet
boxes.

Note: You may need a longer downrod to
maintain proper blade clearance when installing
on a steep, sloped ceiling.
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.

WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK, OR OTHER PERSONAL INJURY,
MOUNT FAN ONLY TO AN OUTLET BOX
MARKED ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT
AND USE THE MOUNTING SCREWS

Hanging the Fan
REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow
the steps below to hang your fan properly:
Step 1. Remove the decorative canopy bottom
cover from the canopy by turning the cover
counter clockwise.(Fig. 5)
Step 2. Remove the mounting bracket from
the canopy by removing the 1 of 2 screws
from the bottom of the mounting bracket and
loosening the other one a half turn from the
screw head. Next, turn the canopy counter
clockwise to removing the mounting bracket
from the canopy. (Fig. 5)
Step 3. Pass the 120-volt supply wires
through the center hole in the ceiling hanger
bracket as shown in Fig. 6.
Step 4. Secure the hanger bracket to the
ceiling outlet box with the screws and
washers provided with your outlet box.
Step 5. Remove the hanger pin, lock pin and
set screws from the top of the motor
assembly. (Fig. 7)
Step 6. Route the safety cable and wires
exiting from the top of the fan motor through
the coupling cover, canopy cover and canopy
and then through the ball / downrod. (Fig. 7)
Step 7. Align the holes at the bottom of the
downrod with the holes in the collar on top of
the motor housing (Fig. 7). Carefully insert
the hanger 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 hanger pin until it
snaps into its locked position, as noted in the circle
inset of Fig. 7.
WARNING
FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL
LOCKING PIN AS NOTED IN STEP 7
COULD RESULT IN FAN LOOSENING AND
POSSIBLY FALLING.

Connections
WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock,
be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse
box before wiring.
Step 1. Motor to House Supply Wires Electrical
Connections: Connect the WHITE wire
(Neutral) from the outlet box to the WHITE wire
marked "AC in N" from the motor. (Fig. 9)
Step 2. Connect the BLACK wire (Hot) from
the outlet box to the BLACK wire marked "AC
in L" from the motor. (Fig. 9)
Secure all wire connections with the plastic wire
nuts provided.

Finishing the Installation
Step 1. Tuck connections neatly into ceiling
outlet box.
Step 2. Slide the canopy up to mounting bracket
and place the key hole on the canopy over the
screw on the mounting bracket, turn canopy until
it locks in place at the narrow section of the key
holes. (Fig. 10)
Step 3. Align the circular hole on canopy with the
remaining hole on the mounting bracket, secure
by tightening the two set screws. Note: Adjust the
canopy screws as necessary until the canopy and
canopy cover are snug.
WARNING
Make sure the notch on the hanging bracket
properly sits in the groove in the hanger ball
before attaching the canopy to the bracket by
turning the housing until it drops into place.

Attaching the Fan Blades
Step 1. Insert the blade through the slot in the
housing. Align the holes in the blade and the fan
motor assembly and secure with the screw and
rubber washer. (Fig. 11)
Step 2. Repeat this procedure with the remaining
blades.

Blade Balancing
All blades are grouped by weight. The fan may
wobble even though the blades are weighed
equally.
The following procedure should correct most
fan wobbling problems. Check after each step.
1. Check that all blade and blade arm screws are
secure.
2. Most fan wobbling 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
this distance as shown in Figure 12. Rotate
the fan until the next blade is positioned for
measurement. Repeat for each blade. The
distance deviation should be equal within
1/8".
3. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the
blade wobble is still noticeable.
4. If the blade wobble is still noticeable,
interchanging two adjacent (side by side)
blades can redistribute the weight and
possibly result in smoother operation.

CAUTION: Before starting installation,
disconnect the power by turning off the circuit
breaker or removing the fuse at fuse box.
Turning power off using the fan switch is not
sufficient to prevent electric shock.
Step 1. Remove 1 of 3 screws from the posts of
the mounting ring and keep it for future use.
Loosen the other 2 screws. (Do not remove)
Step 2. Place the key holes in the mounting plate
over the two screws previously loosened from
the mounting ring. Turn the mounting plate until
the decorative cover locks in place at the narrow
section of the key holes. (Fig. 13)
Step 3. Securely tighten the two mounting
screws previously loosened and the one
previously removed.
Step 4. While holding the LED light kit under
the fan motor assembly, make the 2-pin wire
connections: (Fig. 14)
- White to white - Black to black
Step 5. Remove 1 of 3 screws from the posts of
the mounting plate and keep it for future use.
Loosen the other 2 screws. (Do not remove)
Step 6. Place the key holes in the LED light kit
over the two mounting screws previously
loosened from the mounting plate). Turn the
LED light kit until the light kit locks in place at
the narrow section of the key holes. Secure by
tightening the two light kit mounting screws
previously loosened and the one previously
removed. (Fig. 14)
Step 7. Raise glass shade up against the light kit
and secure it to fan by turning glass clockwise
until snug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
