MOUNTING OPTIONS

If there isn’t an existing UL 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 70 Ibs). Do not use plastic outlet boxes. Figures 1 and 2 are examples of different ways to mount the outlet box.
To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need ceiling fan outlet box and support brace as shown in Figure 3. WARNING The fan should not be installed unless the structure on which the fan is to be mounted is of sound construction, undamaged, and capable of supporting the loads of the fan and its method of mounting. A structural engineer should verify that the structure is adequate prior to fan installation. Verifying the stability of the mounting structure is the sole responsibility of the customer and/or end user, and we hereby expressly disclaims any liability arising therefrom.
Installation Preparation
To prevent personal injury and damage, ensure that the hanging location allows the blades a clearance of 7 feet (2.13m) from the floor and 18in. (46cm) from any wall or obstruction. This fan is suitable for room sizes up to 100-150 square feet.

INSTALLING MOUNTING BRACKET

Shut the power off at the circuit breaker box before beginning.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the electricity supply power to the fan before installing the light kit.

OPERATING YOUR FAN

Connect the pull chain knob(s) to the pull chaln(s) located In the switch housing. A slide reverse switch located on the switch housing controls the direction of blade rotation. The right position sets the blades in REVERSE rotation.
The left position sets the blades in FORWARD rotation.
SUMMER Mode: The reverse switch shall be in the “left” (SUMMER) position to make the fan rotate in an anticlockwise direction. The airflow will be directed downwards, for cooling in summer.
WINTER Mode: The reverse switch shall be in the “right° (WINTER) position to make the fan rotate in a clockwise direction. The airflow will be directed upwards assisting in the circulation of warm air, for energy conservation in winter.
Warning : Turn fan completely off before changing the setting of the slide reverse switch.
Important : Reverse switch must be set either completely to the LEFT or completely to the RIGHT for fan to function. If the reverse switch is set in the middle position, fan will not operate. Turn on the power and check the operation of your ceiling fan. The pull chain controls fan speed as follows:
1 pull = High Speed
2 pulls = Medium Speed
3 pulls = Low Speed
4 pulls = OFF
Note : Even if the fan is mounted with a minimum of 7 feet clearance from the trailing edge of the blades to the floor, be careful to avoid raising your arms or anyobject in the path of the blades.

TROUBLESHOOTING

WARNING : Failure to disconnect power supply prior to troubleshooting any wiring issues may result in serious injury

– Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.
Fan sounds noisy.| – Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
– Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub is tight. – Make sure wire nut connections are not rubbing against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing.
– Allow a 24-hour ‘breaking-in” period. Most noise associated with a new fan disappear during this time.
– If using an optional light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that light bulb is also secure.
– Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from solid-state variable speed controls.
If you have installed this type of control, choose and install another type of control. – Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not
touch the ceiling.
Fan wobbles| – Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.
– 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. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. The distance deviation should be equal within 1f8″.
– Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.
– If the blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side) blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother operation.

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. 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 bearings.
