BIG ASS FANS HAIKU Ceiling Fan Installation Guide

BIG ASS FANS HAIKU Ceiling Fan

Product Information

The product is a ceiling fan from bigassfans.com. The fan is available in two models: Universal Mount and Low Profile Mount. The Universal Mount model is compatible with sloped or flat ceilings from 9 to 14 ft (2.7 to 4.3 m) and has a maximum weight of 26 lb (11.8 kg). The Low Profile Mount model is designed for low ceilings. The fan is available in various models with different mounting options, input voltage, and fan diameter ranging from 52 in. (1.3 m) to 84 in. (2.1 m). The fan can be installed in covered outdoor locations but requires light kits marked suitable for use in damp locations.

Product Usage Instructions

Before You Start

1. Turn off power at the breaker. If you are uncomfortable performing electrical work, contact a licensed electrician to install the fan if required by local code.
2. Gather necessary tools and prepare fan site by checking the ceiling slope, especially for Universal Mount installation.
3. Prepare concrete ceiling (if applicable) by removing dust from holes, inserting anchor bolts, striking the heads of anchor bolts with a hammer, positioning mounting bracket, and tightening all anchor bolts fully to expand and lock the anchors.

Universal Mount Installation

1. Install the fan stabilizer in covered outdoor locations on flat ceilings only.
2. If included, install the EMI filter.
3. Remove the lower cover attached to the motor unit.
4. Attach the mounting bracket to the ceiling following the specific instructions for your ceiling type (flat or sloped).
5. Install the fan by attaching the canopy to the mounting bracket and securing the fan with screws.
6. Attach the downrod to the motor unit using the provided screws and steel pin.
7. Cover wiring and safety cable with the wiring cover and connect wires using wire connectors.
8. Attach the fan blades to the motor unit using the wedge, mounting ball, and screws provided.
9. Turn on power at the breaker and test the fan.

BEFORE YOU START

Turn Off Power at Breaker
Contact an electrician if you are uncomfortable performing electrical work. A licensed electrician must install the fan if required by local code.
Gather Tools
Prepare Fan Site and Gather Hardware CAUTION
Do not use the fan with a dimmer switch. Outlet Box: Make sure your outlet box is suitable for fan support. If there is not an outlet box at the fan location, install one on a ceiling joist or beam. You will need to supply two 10-32 screws for attaching the fan mounting bracket or plate to the outlet box. Concrete Ceiling: Depending on your mount type, you will need to supply three or four anchor bolts for attaching the fan mounting bracket or plate to the ceiling. If required by your local building and safety codes, you will also need to supply an anchor hook for the safety cable. See pages 4­5 for hardware specifications and installation details. Wood Ceiling Joist: You will need to supply two corrosion-resistant 12-11 x 45 mm hex head timber screws with seal for attaching the fan mounting bracket or plate directly to the joist. If required by local code, mount or embed an outlet box into the joist. The outlet box must be suitable for fan support. Covered Outdoor Locations: Damp-rated fans installed in covered outdoor locations must have fixed/permanent full overhead coverage extending at least 2 ft (0.6 m) out from the airfoil tips on all sides.
Mounting to an outlet box or a wood ceiling joist is not applicable in Singapore. If anchor bolts and anchor hook are included with your fan, use them for concrete mounting. ***When installing the fan in a covered outdoor location, use only light kits marked “Suitable for Use in Damp Locations.”

UNIVERSAL MOUNT INSTALLATION
Skip this step if you are not installing an uplight. If you purchased the UV-C option, install the UV-C LED boards on the uplight before installing the uplight on the fan. Refer to the instructions packaged with the UV-C LED boards. Align rectangular cutouts in center of uplight with bolts on downrod. Make sure uplight wiring harness and motor unit wiring harness are on opposite sides of downrod. Slide uplight down the downrod until it stops (Fig 4.2). There will be some space between the uplight and the top of the motor unit. Fig. 4.2

TROUBLESHOOTING

Issue

Solution

This is normal and may happen occasionally upon The fan jerks upon startup. startup. An initial slight jerking forward and backward
does not affect fan operation.

The fan will not start.

· Make sure the fan is receiving power. Check your circuit breaker or fuse panel and wall switch for functionality.
· Make sure supply power is adequate. · Make sure all wires are securely connected and the
fan is properly wired and grounded. · Make sure the plastic film in the remote’s battery tray
has been removed.

The fan wobbles.

· Make sure all mounting hardware is secure and tight. · Remove the airfoils and make sure the colored dot
sticker on each airfoil matches the corresponding sticker on the motor unit. If the stickers do not match, move the airfoils to the matching attachment points. · If you installed multiple fans, make sure the serial numbers on the airfoils match the serial number on the motor unit. · Make sure all airfoils are aligned properly and are securely fastened to the motor unit. · If an airfoil is damaged, contact Customer Service. Airfoils must be replaced as a set. Do not replace individual airfoils. · Universal Mount only: Make sure the downrod and motor unit are hanging straight. Raise the wiring cover and locate the two bolts and nuts on the motor bracket. Loosen the hardware slightly to allow the fan to hang straight, and then re-tighten just past hand tight. Slide the wiring cover back in place.

TROUBLESHOOTING Issue

Solution
Remove the downtube screw caps and locate the pivot bolt on the downtube. Loosen the bolt with a 5 mm hex key to allow the fan to hang straight, and then re-tighten. Reinstall the screw caps.

The fan appears slightly tilted.
(Low Profile Mount only)

The fan is noisy during operation.
I need to reboot the fan.

Bring the fan to a complete stop. · Gently turn the airfoils by hand, making sure there
are no fan parts rubbing on the hub when the fan rotates. · Check all mounting and fan hardware. If loose, tighten.
Press and hold the remote On/Off button until the LED indicators start blinking. Within three seconds of the LEDs blinking, press the On/Off button again. When the LEDs stop blinking, the reboot is complete.

I need to pair my remote control with a different fan.

To pair a remote with a different fan, press and until the LEDs blink. Make sure the remote is within range of the new fan, and then press any button to pair.

The green LED on the downlight is blinking or the downlight is not responding.

This can occur when the downlight experiences an electrostatic discharge. Use the remote to reboot the fan or turn power to the fan off and back on.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING
Risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons during cleaning and user maintenance. Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before servicing. Please take a few moments each year to perform the following preventative maintenance procedures on your fan to ensure its safe and efficient operation.
Check the safety cable, hardware, and wiring
Check that the safety cable is properly installed by removing the canopy or wiring cover screws, sliding the canopy or wiring cover down the downrod or downtube, and examining the safety cable and hardware.
Make sure the mounting hardware and the screws securing the airfoils to the motor unit are securely fastened.
Make sure the wire connectors are secure and the ground wire is securely connected.
Clean the airfoils
Dust the airfoils regularly. If the fan becomes dirty, clean it with a soft cloth. Do not use solvents, gasoline, or any other chemical cleaners. These may cause surface distortion and damage to the fan.
Clean the lights
Downlight: Clean the light’s lens periodically to ensure optimal performance. Wipe the lens with a soft cloth. If necessary, use water and a mild soap or a gentle liquid cleaner. Do not clean the light or lens with scouring pads, alkaline cleaning substances, gasoline, thinner, benzene, heating oil, or polishing powder. Uplight: Clean the LEDs periodically to ensure optimal performance. Use a compressed air duster to remove dust and debris from the LEDs. Do not touch the LEDs while cleaning. Hold the duster can upright when using.
