MOUNTING OPTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury,
mount to outlet box marked “Acceptable for fan support of 35 lbs (15.9 kg) or
less”, and use screwsprovided with the outlet box. An outlet box commonly used
for the support of lighting fixtures may not be acceptable for fan support and
may need to be replaced.
If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
If your ceiling fan does not have an existing UL-listed mounting box, then
install one using the following instructions:
- Disconnect the power by removing the fuses or turning off the circuit breakers.
- Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use the appropriate fasteners and materials. The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted and capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 35 lbs (15.9 kg). Use only UL-listed outlet boxes marked “Acceptable for fan support of 35 lbs (15.9 kg) or less” Do not use a plastic outlet box.
The illustrations below show three 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 20° away from horizontal.
If the
canopy touches the downrod, then 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 above (available at any Home
Depot store).

Operating Your Fan and Remote Control
Remote Control – Your fan is equipped with a remote control to operate the
speed and lights of your new ceiling fan.
Speed setting for warm or cool weather depends on factors such as the room
size, ceiling height, number of fans and so on.
The fan is shipped from the factory with the reversing switch (YY) 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
reversing switch (located on the top of the motor housing) to the opposite
position, and turn the fan on again. The fan blades will turn in the opposite
direction and reverse airflow.
Warm weather – (Forward) A downward airflow creates a cooling effect.
This allows you to set your air conditioner on a higher setting without
affecting your comfort.
Cool weather – (Reverse) An upward airflow moves warm air off of the
ceiling. This allows you to set your heating unit on a lower setting without
affecting your comfort.

Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year.
Make sure they are secure. It is not necessary to remove the fan from the
ceiling.
□ Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the
years. Do not use water when cleaning, as 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.
□ 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.
□ You do not need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently-lubricated sealed
ball bearings.
Troubleshooting
Problem | Solution |
---|---|
The fan will not start. | □ Check the main and branch circuit fuses or |
breakers.
□ Check the line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in
the switch housing.
□ Check the battery in the remote control.
□ Ensure you are in the normal range of 10-20 feet.
□ Remember to turn off the power supply before checking the dip switch
settings.
The fan is noisy.| □ Ensure all motor housing screws are snug.
□ Ensure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub are
tight.
□ Ensure the wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the
interior wall of the switch housing.
□ Allow a 24-hour “breaking in” period. Most noises associated with a new fan
disappear during this time.
□ If you are using the Ceiling Fan light kit, ensure the screws securing the
glassware are tight. Check that the light bulbs are also secure.
□ Ensure the canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch
the ceiling.
□ Ensure your outlet box is secure and rubber isolator pads were used between
the mounting plate and outlet box.
The fan wobbles.| □ Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.
□ 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 the blade to the point on the
ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement,
and measure from the same point on each blade to the ceiling. Repeat for each
blade. Any measurement deviation should be within 1/8 in. Run the fan for ten
minutes. If the fan continues to wobble please contact Customer Service and a
balancing kit will be sent to you at no charge.
