SAFETY TIPS.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, turn off the electricity to the fan at the main fuse box or circuit panel before you begin the fan installation
or before servicing the fan or installing accessories.

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR FAN AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
   CAUTION: To avoid personal injury, the use of gloves may be necessary while handling fan parts with sharp edges.

2.  Make sure all electrical connections comply with Local Codes or Ordinances, the National Electrical Code, and ANSI/NFPA 70-1999. If you are unfamiliar with electrical wiring or if the house/building wires are different colors than those referred to in the instructions, please use a qualified electrician.

3. Make sure you have a location selected for your fan that allows clear space for the blades to rotate, and at least seven (7) feet (2.13 meters) of clearance between the floor and the fan blade tips. The fan should be mounted so that the tips of the blades are at least thirty (30) inches (76 centimeters) from walls or other upright structures.

4. The outlet box and ceiling support joist used must be securely mounted, and capable of supporting at least 35 pounds (16 kilograms). The outlet box must be supported directly by the building structure. Use only CETL or CUL in Canada or ETL or UL in USA listed outlet boxes marked “FOR FAN SUPPORT.”
   WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount to the outlet box marked “Acceptable for Fan Support of 15.9 kg (35 lb) or less,” and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly used for the support of lighting fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
   WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, wire connectors provided with this fan are designed to accept only one 12 gauge house wire and two lead wires from the fan.

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 30in. (76cm) from any wall or obstruction.
This fan is suitable for room sizes up to 400 square feet (37.2 square meters).
This fan can be mounted as a flush mount on a regular (no-slope) ceiling only. Download installations are not available for this fan.

Installation requires these tools:
Phillips screwdriver, flat-head screwdriver, adjustable pliers or wrench, stepladder, wire cutters, and rated electrical tape.

Mounting Plate Installation

Turn off circuit breakers to the current fixture from the breaker panel and be sure the operating light switch is turned to the OFF position.
WARNING: Failure to disconnect the power supply prior to installation may result in serious injury. Remove existing fixture.
WARNING: When using an existing outlet box, be sure the outlet box is securely attached to the building structure and can support the full weight of the fan. Ensure the outlet  box is clearly marked “Suitable for Fan Support.” If not, it must be replaced with an approved outlet box. Failure to do so can result in serious injury.

CAUTION: Be sure the outlet box is grounded properly and that a ground wire (GREEN or bare) is present. Locate the 4 screws/lock washers on the underside of the mounting plate and remove the screw/lock washer next to the green ground screw. Also, remove the screw/lock washer directly opposite the screw/lock washer that was just removed. Partially loosen the other 2 screws/lock washers.

Install mounting plate to outlet box using original screws, spring washers, and flat washers provided with new or original outlet box.* Pull electrical wiring from outlet box through the center hole in the mounting plate.
*Note: It is very important that you use the proper hardware when installing the mounting plate as this will support the fan.

Preparation for Wiring.

Lift motor assembly to the mounting plate and then hang motor assembly on the j-hook on the underside of the mounting plate. (Use one of the non-slotted holes on the rim of the motor  assembly to do so.) This will allow the motor assembly to hang out of the way while wiring. Tip: Seek the help of another person to hold the stepladder in place and lift the fan up to you once you are set on the ladder.

Find a secure attachment point (wood ceiling joist highly recommended) and secure safety cable. It will be necessary to use a heavy-duty wood screw, washer, and lock washer  (not supplied) with the safety cable loop. If necessary, adjust the loop at the end of the safety cable. The loop at the end of the safety cable should just fit over the threads on the wood screw. Test safety cable by pulling on the loose end of the cable with pliers. If the safety cable slips, the loop must be adjusted to smaller. Extra cable slack can be left in the ceiling area.

Wiring.

WARNING: Turn off circuit breakers to the current fixture from the breaker panel and be sure the switch is turned to the OFF position.
CAUTION: Be sure the outlet box is grounded properly and that a ground wire (GREEN or Bare) is present. Make sure all electrical connections comply with Local Codes or  Ordinances and the National Electrical Code. If you are unfamiliar with electrical wiring or if the house/building wires are different colors than those referred to below, please use a qualified electrician.

One fan has been temporarily hung on the mounting plate, electrical wiring can be made as follows:
Connect BLACK wire from fan to BLACK wire from ceiling with wire connector provided. Connect WHITE wire from fan to WHITE wire from ceiling with wire connector provided. Connect GROUND (GREEN) wire from mounting plate to BARE/GREEN wire from the ceiling with wire connector provided.

• Wrap each wire connector separately with electrical tape as an extra safety measure. [“Wiring” continued on the next page.] [PLEASE NOTE: Wall and/or handheld remote control must be used for the fan to operate. If you do not wish to use the wall control, please proceed to Section 7 below to  continue with fan installation.] To install wall control, remove the existing wall switch. Wire one of the wall controls with wire connectors provided as shown in the diagram at right.

*Wrap each wire connector separately with electrical tape as an extra safety measure.
Gently push wires and taped wire connectors into the outlet box.

Select a faceplate (almond or white) and press firmly onto the front of the wall control. Attach the wall control to the outlet box and secure it with screws from the original wall switch. Attach wall plate (included) to wall control using 2 screws provided with the wall control.

Fan Assembly.

Remove motor assembly from the j-hook on the mounting plate. Then, raise the motor assembly to the mounting plate again, aligning slotted holes at top of the motor assembly with loosened screws on the mounting plate. Twist motor assembly to lock. Re-insert the 2 screws that were previously removed (Section 4, page 5) and then tighten all 4 screws to secure the motor assembly.

WARNING: It is extremely important to tighten motor mounting screws completely so that fan is mounted securely.

Motor Housing Assembly.

Locate 4 screws on the outer rim at top of the motor assembly and partially loosen 2 of the screws that are directly opposite each other. Remove the other 2 screws from the motor assembly.
Now, raise the motor housing to the motor assembly, aligning slotted holes in the motor housing with loosened screws in the motor assembly. Twist motor housing to lock. Re-insert the 2 screws that were previously removed and then tighten all 4 screws to secure the motor housing.

Locate 4 tabs inside the housing ring. Place housing ring at bottom of motor housing with the wider opening facing up (toward the ceiling). Gently begin pushing the housing ring toward top of the motor housing, aligning tabs in the housing ring with 4 elongated indentations at top of the motor housing.
IMPORTANT: Each tab should slide into one of the 4 indentations to ensure the housing ring fits securely.

Blade Assembly.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, DO NOT use power tools to assemble the blades. If blade screws are overtightened, blades may crack and break.
Locate 6 blade screws/lock washers/flat washers in the hardware pack.

Before installing each blade, make sure the end of the blade with holes for installation is turned so the FLAT side is toward the ceiling. Raise the blade to the motor, aligning holes in the blade with corresponding holes in the motor. Then, hold the blade plate up to the blade, aligning holes as shown, and partially insert 2 blade screws/lock washers with fingers first to attach the blade to the motor. Before securing screws permanently, repeat the procedure for the remaining blades. Securely tighten all screws only after all 3 blades have been attached.
NOTE: Tighten blade screws twice a year.

Light Kit Assembly (Optional).

Remove 1 screw from the motor plate (on the underside of the motor) and partially loosen the other 2 screws. Align slotted holes in the fitter plate with loosened screws in the motor plate,  allowing Molex connections from the motor housing to come through a hole in the middle of the fitter plate. Twist the fitter plate to lock. Re-insert the screw that was just removed and tighten all 3  screws securely with a Phillips screwdriver.

Remove 1 screw and partially loosen the other 2 screws from the underside of the fitter plate.
