Figures 1~3 are examples of different ways to mount the outlet box.

Note: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling. The maximum angle allowable is 18°. If the canopy touches downrod, remove the decorative canopy bottom cover and turn the canopy 180° before attaching the canopy to the mounting plate.

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 (available at any Home Depot store).

Hanging the Fan

Remember to turn off the power. Follow the steps below to hang your fan properly.
NOTE: This ceiling fan is supplied with two types of hanging assemblies; the standard ceiling installation using the downrod with ball and socket mounting, and the “close-to-ceiling” mounting. The “close-to-ceiling” mounting is recommended in rooms with less than 8-foot ceilings or in areas where additional space is desired from the floor to the fan blades.

When using the standard downrod installation, the distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades will be approximately 12 inches. The “close-to- ceiling” installation reduces the distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades to approximately 9 inches.
Once you have decided which ceiling installation you will use, proceed with the following instructions. Where necessary, each section of the instructions will note the different procedures to follow for the two types of installation.

Option 1: Standard Ceiling Mounting

1. Remove the canopy ring from the canopy. (Figure 5)
2. Remove the mounting bracket from the canopy by loosening the four screws on the top of the canopy. Remove the two non-slotted screws and loosen the slotted screws. (Figure 6)
3. Route wires exiting from the top of the fan motor through the canopy ring. Make sure the slot openings are on top. Route the wires through the canopy and then through the ball/downrod assembly (Figure. 7).
4. Loosen, but do not remove the 2 set screws on the collar on top of the motor housing.
5. Align the holes at the bottom of the downrod with the holes in the coupling on top of the motor housing. (Figure 7) Carefully insert the clevis pin through the holes in the collar and downrod. Be careful not to jam the clevis pin against the wiring inside the downrod. Insert the cotter pin through the hole near the end of the clevis pin until it snaps into its locked position, as noted in the circle inset of Fig. 7.
6. Tighten two set screws on top of the fan motor firmly. (Figure 7)

NOTE: If a longer downrod is needed, take out the screw located in the hanger ball, lower the hanger ball and remove the pin, remove all 3 pieces from the downrod and assemble them onto the new longer downrod before proceeding step 3. (The longer downrod is available at any Home Depot store)

Option 2: Close-to-Ceiling Mounting

1. Remove the canopy ring from the canopy. (Figure 5)
2. Remove the mounting bracket from the canopy by loosening the four screws on the top of the canopy. Remove the two non-slotted screws and loosen the slotted screws. (Figure 6)
3. Remove the decorative canopy bottom cover from the canopy by turning the canopy bottom cover counterclockwise. (Figure 8)
4. Remove three of the six screws and lock washers (every other one) from the collar of top motor. (Figure 9)
5. Route the wires exiting the top of the fan motor through the canopy ring (make sure the slot openings are on top). then proceed to place the ceiling canopy over the collar at the top of the motor. (Figure 10)
6. Align the mounting holes with the holes in the motor and fasten using the screws and lock washers removed in step 4. (Fig. 10)
7. Tighten the security of the mounting screw.

Installing Fan to the Electrical Box

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

1. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through the center hole in the ceiling mounting bracket as shown in Figure 11.
2. Install the ceiling mounting bracket on the outlet box with the screws and washers provided with your outlet box. (Figure 11) When using “close-to-ceiling” mounting, it is important that the mounting bracket be level. If necessary, use leveling washers (not included) between the mounting bracket and the outlet box. Note that the flat side of the mounting bracket is toward the outlet box. (Figure 11)
3. Security tighten the two mounting screws.
4. Carefully lift the fan assembly up to the ceiling mounting bracket and hang the fan on the tab provided by utilizing one of the holes at the outer rim of the ceiling canopy. (Figure 12) If use standard mounting, seat the hanger ball in the mounting bracket socket. Make sure the tab on the mounting bracket socket is properly seated in the groove in the hanger ball. (Figure 12)
   WARNING WHEN USING THE STANDARD BALL/ DOWN-ROD MOUNTING. THE TAB IN THE RING MUST REST IN THE GROOVE OF THE HANGER BALL. FAILURE TO PROPERLY SEAT THE TAB IN THE GROOVE COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE 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 nuts supplied with your fan. Secure the wire nuts with electrical tape. Make sure there are no loose strands or connections.

1. Connect the ground cnductor of the 120V supply (this may be a bare wire or a wire with green-colored insulation) to the green ground lead(s) of the fan. (Figure 13) When using standard ceiling mounting, there are two green grounding leads; one from the ceiling mounting bracket and one from the ball/downrod assembly. When using “Close-to-Ceiling” mounting, there is only one green ground lead from the ceiling mounting bracket since the ball/downrod assembly is not used.
2. Connect the fan motor white wire to the supply white (neutral) wire using a wire nut. (Figure 13)
3. Connect the fan motor black wire to the supply black (hot) wire using a wire nut. (Figure 13)
4. Connect the blue wire for light kit to the black household supply wire.
5. Turn wire nut connections upward, spreading them apart so the green (ground) will be on one side of the outlet box and the white, black and blue wire will be on the other side, and push carefully up into the outlet box.

WARNING

• CHECK TO SEE THAT ALL CONNECTIONS ARE TIGHT, INCLUDING GROUND, AND THAT NO BARE WIRE IS VISIBLE AT THE WIRE NUTS. EXCEPT FOR THE GROUND WIRE.
• ELECTRICAL DIAGRAMS ARE FOR REFERENCE ONLY. OPTIONAL USE OF ANY LIGHT KIT SHALL BE UL LISTED AND MARKED SUITABLE FOR USE WITH THIS FAN.
• TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK. DO NOT USE THIS FAN WITH ANY SOLID-STATE SPEED CONTROL DEVICE.

Finishing the Fan Installation

Slide the canopy up to the ceiling as shown in Figure 14. Make sure you place the wires safely into the outlet box. Secure the canopy to the mounting bracket with the four screws with your fan. Raise up the canopy ring and line up the 4 tabs with the 4 grooves on the canopy. Once lined up, slide the canopy ring and secure it to the canopy until snug.

WARNING
MAKE SURE THE TAB ON THE MOUNTING 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.

Close-to-Ceiling Mounting
Remove the fan from the hook on the mounting bracket. Secure the canopy to the mounting bracket with four screws included with your fan. (Fig. 15) Raise up the canopy ring and line up the 4 tabs with the 4 grooves on the canopy. Once lined up, slide the canopy ring and secure it to the canopy until snug.

Attaching the Fan Blades

CAUTION
THE MOTOR IS SHIPPED WITH RUBBER PACKING MOUNTS TO PREVENT MOVEMENT DURING TRANSPORTATION. REMOVE 5 RUBBER PACKING MOUNTS FROM FAN MOTOR ASSEMBLY AND DISCARD PRIOR TO ATTACHING BLADE ARMS. (FIG. 16)

1. Attach blades to blade arm using the screws with fiber washers provided. (Fig. 17) Start a screw into the blade arm, do not tighten. Repeat for the 2 remaining screws and washers.
2. Tighten each screw securely starting with the center screw. Make sure the blade is straight. Repeat steps for the remaining blades.
3. Align motor holes to blade arms and secure with screws provided, tighten screws securely. (Figure 18)

Blade Balancing
The following procedure should correct most fan wobble. Check after each step.

1. Check that all blade and blade bracket 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 19. 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. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.

Installing the Light Kit

CAUTION
BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION, DISCONNECT THE POWER BY TURNING OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR REMOVING THE FUSE AT FUSE BOX. TURNING THE POWER OFF USING THE FAN SWITCH IS NOT SUFFICIENT TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK.

1. While holding the light kit under your fan, locate two single white and blue wires in the switch housing labeled “FOR LIGHT”.
   Make the polarized plug connections:

   • White to white
   • Blue to black

2. Carefully push all wires back into the switch housing. Attach the light kit fitter by aligning its keyhole slots with the three screw holes and the reverse switch on the side of the switch housing. Tighten the three screws securely to prevent the light kit from vibrating loose. (Fig. 20)

3. Install 1 x 13 Watt GU24 compact fluorescent bulb (included). NOTE: CFL bulbs are NOT dimmable.

4. Mount the glass shade to the light fixture by unscrewing partway the thumbscrews on the glass holder, insert the glass, then gently tightening the thumbscrews by hand evenly to the glass. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. (Fig. 21)

Fan without Light Kit (Optional)

CAUTION
BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION, DISCONNECT THE POWER BY TURNING OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR REMOVING THE FUSE AT FUSE BOX. TURNING THE POWER OFF USING THE FAN SWITCH IS NOT SUFFICIENT TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK.

1. Disassemble the switch housing cover from the light kit, you can keep the light kit for future use.
2. Attach the plastic plug to the switch housing cover. (Fig. 22)
3. Install the switch housing to the mounting plate with screws provided. (Fig. 22)

Operating Your Fan

Turn on the power and check the operation of the fan. The pull chain controls the fan speed as follows: 1 pull – High, 2 pulls – Medium, 3 pulls – Low and 4 pulls – Off.
Speed settings for warm or cool weather depend on factors such as room size, ceiling height, number of fans, and so on.
Light kit pull chain- it controls the light kit in “ON” or “OFF”.
The slide switch controls directions: forward (switch down) or reverse (switch up).

Warm weather – (Counter Clockwise Direction) A downward airflow creates a cooling effect as shown in Figure 23. This allows you to set your air conditioner on a higher setting without affecting your comfort.

Cool-weather – (Clockwise Direction) An upward air flow moves warm air off the ceiling are as shown in Figure 24. This allows you to set your heating unit on a lower setting without affecting your comfort.

Care of Your Fan Troubleshooting

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 the ceiling.)
2. Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the years. Do not use water when cleaning. 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. Do not use water when cleaning. This could damage the motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.
3. You can apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood blades 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.

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.
3. Check to make sure the dip switches from the transmitter and receiver are set to the same frequency.

Fan sounds noisy

1. Make sure wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing.
2. Allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this time.
3. If using ceiling fan light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that the light bulb is also secure.
4. Make sure there is a short distance from the ceiling to the canopy. It should not touch the ceiling.
5. Make sure your ceiling box is secure and rubber isolator pads are used between the mounting bracket and outlet box.
6. This unit is equipped with a wattage-limiting device. Lamping in excess of 190 watts will disable your ceiling fan’s light kit. To reset your light kit you must turn the power off and relamp, keeping the wattage under 190 watts. Restore power to your ceiling fan and continue normal
