MOUNTING OPTIONS
Two Mounting Options
Choose one of the following mounting options:
Donwood Mount is best suited for ceilings 8 ft. or higher. For taller
ceilings you may want to use a longer dowered (not included).
Angled Ceiling Mount is best suited for angled or vaulted ceilings. A
longer dowered is sometimes necessary to ensure proper blade clearance from
the ceiling. If using the angle mount, check to ensure the ceiling angle is
not steeper than 10°.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
To avoid risk of electric shock, be sure to shut off power at the main fuse or
circuit breaker box before installing or servicing this fixture. Turning off
the electrical power by using the light switch is not sufficient to prevent
electrical shock.
To reduce the risk of injury, install the fan so that the blades are at least
7 feet (2.1 Meters) above the floor and at least 18 inches (0.5 Meters) from
the tip of the blades to the wall.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury, mount to
outlet box marked “acceptable for fan support” and use mounting screws
provided with the outlet box.
The installation has to be in accordance with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-1999 and local codes. If you are unfamiliar with the methods of
installing electrical wiring, seek the services of a qualified licensed
electrician.
Using a full-range dimmer switch to control fan speed will cause a loud
humming noise from the fan. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do
NOT use a full-range dimmer switch to control the fan speed.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
-
Turn OFF the electrical power at the main fuse or circuit breaker.
DANGER: Failure to disconnect the power supply prior to installation may result in serious injury or death. -
Loosen all four mounting bracket screws located on the mounting bracket and completely remove the two screws from the round holes in the canopy. Save the screws for later. Remove the canopy from the mounting bracket. Then, install the mounting bracket to the outlet box (sold separately) using the screws and washers provided with the outlet box.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury, mount to the outlet box marked “acceptable for fan support” and use the mounting screws and washers provided with the outlet box. -
Remove the dowered clip and dowered pin from the dowered. Then, loosen but don’t remove the two set screws at the top of the yoke.
-
Insert the dowered through the canopy and yoke cover. Feed the wires and braided cable from the fan through the dowered.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If you have difficulty operating your new ceiling fan, it may be the result of incorrect assembly, installation or wiring. In some cases, these installation errors may be mistaken for defects. If you experience any faults, please check the Troubleshooting section below. If a problem cannot be remedied or you are experiencing difficulty in installation, please contact the Service Department: 1-877-706-3267, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. Central, Monday – Friday.
PROBLEM | SUGGESTED REMEDY |
---|
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury,
shut off the power supply to fan before you begin any maintenance tasks.
1. Fan does not start:| 1. Make sure that the wall switch is turned ON.
2. Check main and branch circuit fuses or circuit breakers.
3. Check all wire connections from household supply wires to the fan.
4. Make sure forward/reverse switch pushed completely left or right. Fan will
not operate when switch is in the middle.
2. Fan is noisy:| 1. Make sure all screws in motor assembly are snug, but
not overtightened.
2. Make sure the screws that attach the blade arms to the motor are tight.
3. Make sure wire connectors are not rattling against each other or against
the interior wall of the canopy.
4. Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from Solid State variable speed
controls. DO NOT USE a Solid State variable speed control.
5. Ensure fan does not wobble excessively (see Fan wobbles solutions below).
3. Fan wobbles:| 1. Ensure the mounting bracket is tightened securely to
outlet box and outlet box is mounted firmly to ceiling joist.
2. Ensure all blades are screwed firmly into blade arms.
3. Ensure all blade arms are tightened securely to motor.
4. Switch one blade with a blade from the opposite side. Or balance the fan
using the blade balancing kit.
5. If blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by
side) blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother
operation.
4. Light does not work:| 1. Check for loose or disconnected 9-pin and/or
single-pin connectors in switch housing or light kit.
2. Ensure the blue wire from fan is connected to hot power supply wire.
3. Check for faulty light bulbs.
4. Ensure total wattage of bulbs does not exceed 180 watts (for incandescent
bulbs only).
5. Remote control does not work:| 1. To re-sync wall control to the fan
– Switch the power to the fan off and back on again. Within 30 seconds, press
and hold the HIGH SPEED and LOW SPEED buttons (or the “LEARN” button, located
in the battery compartment) for 5 seconds. Fan will turn on at low speed and
light off. This confirms the syncing process is successful.
2. Insert new CR2032 batteries in battery compartment of the wall control.
3. If there are several fans in close proximity, turn power off to other fans
and re-sync the remote (see Corrective Action 1 above).
