2. Install the ceiling mounting bracket on the electrical box by using the mounting screws provided with the electrical box. Note that the flat side of the mounting bracket is
   toward the electrical box. (Figure 7)

3. Tighten the two screws on the electrical box securely.

4. Carefully lift the fan assembly up to the ceiling mounting bracket. Make sure the tab on the mounting bracket is properly seated in the groove in the hanger ball. (Figure 8)

WARNING
WHEN USING THE STANDARD BALL/DOWNROD MOUNTING, THE TAB IN THE RING AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MOUNTING BRACKET MUST
REST IN THE GROOVE OF THE HANGER BALL. FAILURE TO PROPERLY SEAT THE TAB IN THE GROOVE COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO WIRING.

Making the Electrical Connections
REMEMBER to disconnect the power. If you feel you do not have enough electrical wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan installed by a licensed electrician.
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. (Figure 9)

1. Connect the two green fan ground wires, located on the downrod and mounting bracket, to the household ground wire.
2. Connect the neutral fan (white) wire to the white neutral household wire.
3. Connect the fan supply (black and blue) wire to the black household supply wire as shown in figure 9.
4. After connecting the wires, spread them apart so that the green and white wires are on one side of the outlet box and the black wire is on the other side.
5. Turn the wire connecting nuts upward and push the wiring into the outlet box.

NOTE
USE THE WIRE CONNECTORS SUPPLIED WITH YOUR FAN. SECURE THE CONNECTORS WITH ELECTRICAL TAPE AND ENSURE THERE ARE
NO LOOSE STRANDS OR CONNECTIONS
WARNING
EACH WIRE NUT (WIRE CONNECTOR) SUPPLIED WITH THIS FAN IS DESIGNED TO ACCEPT UP TO ONE 12 GAUGE HOUSE WIRE AND TWO WIRES FROM THIS FAN. IF YOU HAVE LARGER THAN 12 GAUGE HOUSE WIRING OR MORE THAN ONE HOUSE WIRE TO CONNECT TO THE FAN

Finishing the Fan
Installation
STANDARD CEILING MOUNTING
WARNING
WHEN USING THE STANDARD BALL/DOWNROD MOUNTING, THE TAB IN THE RING AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MOUNTING PLATE MUST
REST IN THE GROOVE OF THE HANGER BALL. FAILURE TO PROPERLY SEAT THE TAB IN THE GROOVE COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO WIRING.

1. Align the locking slots of the ceiling canopy with the two screws in the mounting bracket. Push up to engage the slots and turn clockwise to lock in place. Immediately tighten the two mounting screws firmly.
2. Install the remaining two mounting screws into the holes in the canopy and tighten firmly.
3. You may now proceed to attaching the fan blades.

Attaching the Fan Blades
NOTE: Your fan blades are reversible. Select the blade finish which best accentuates your decor.

1. Attach blade to blade bracket using screws shown in Figure 10. Repeat for the two remaining screws.

2. Tighten each screw securely.

3. Fasten the blade assembly to the motor by aligning the screw holes on the bottom of the fan motor with the holes on the blade arm, and tightening the motor screws. Please note that the motor screws are preattached into the blade brackets. (Figure 11)

4. Repeat steps 1,2 & 3 for the remaining blades.

Blade Balancing
All blades are grouped by weight. Because natural woods vary in density, the fan may wobble even though the blades are weight matched.
The following procedure should correct most fan wobble. Check after each step.

1. Check that all blade screws are secure.

2. Most fan wobble 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 from a point on the center of each blade to the point on the ceiling. Measure this distance as shown in Figure 12. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement.
   Repeat for each blade. Measurements deviation should be within 1/8”. Run the fan for 10 minutes.

3. Make sure that canopy is tightened securely to ceiling mounting bracket and that the ceiling mounting bracket is tightened securely to the electrical box.

4. Interchanging two adjacent blades can redistribute  the weight and possibly result in the smootheroperation.

5. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.

Install Pull Chain
Install the pull chain extension chain and fob (Figure 13).

Speed settings for warm or cool weather depend on factors such as room size, ceiling height, number of fans, and so on.
The fan shipped from the factory with the reverse switch positioned to circulate air downward. If airflow is desired in the opposite direction, turn your fan off and wait for the blades to stop turning, then slide the reverse switch (located on the switch housing, refer to figure 13) to opposite position, and turn fan on again. The fan blades will turn in the opposite direction and reverse airflow.
Warm weather – (Forward) A downward air flow creates a cooling effect as shown in Figure 14. This allows you to set your air conditioner on a higher setting without
affecting your comfort.
Cool weather – (Reverse) An upward air flow moves warm air off the ceiling are as shown in Figure 15. This allows you to set your heating unit on a lower setting without affecting your comfort.

Operating Your Fan

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. Do not use water when cleaning, this could damage the motor, or the wood or possibly cause an electrical shock. 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.
   Warning – Make sure the power is off before cleaning your fan.

3. You can apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood 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 sealed ball bearings.

Troubleshooting

Problem Solution
Fan will not start

1. Check main and branch 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.

Fan sounds noisy

1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.

2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub are tight.

3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing.
   CAUTION: Make sure power is off.

4. Allow a 24-hour “breaking in” period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this time.

5. If using the Ceiling Fan light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that the light bulb is also secure.

6. Make sure the canopy is a short distance from the ceiling.
   It should not touch the ceiling.

7. Make sure your electrical box is secure and rubber isolator pads were used between the mounting bracket and electrical box.

WARNING
MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT TO MAKE ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION,
“MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS.”
