If the canopy touches downrod, 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 in Figure 4.

Hanging the Fan

REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow the steps below to hang your fan properly. NOTE: For better fan performance, make sure the mounting plate is level. Additional washers (not included) may be needed to insert between the outlet box and mounting plate.
Attaching the fan to the electrical box

  1. Turn the power off.
  2. Securely attach the mounting plate to the outlet box using the two screws supplied with the outlet box. Pull the 120-volt supply wires (black, white and ground wires) out of the outlet box and through the hole in the mounting plate and lay them to the side. (Figure 5)

Hanging the fan-motor assembly

  1. Carefully lift the fan-motor assembly and engage the slot in the motor bracket on the top of the fan-motor assembly with the hook on the mounting plate so that it is securely suspended. (Figure 6)

Installing the motor housing

  1. Remove two of the four screws (located diagonally from each other) from the top of the mounting plate and loosen the other two screws.
  2.  Align the two key slots in the top of the motor housing with the two loosened screws on the mounting plate. Push the motor housing up and turn it clockwise to lock in the mounting plate. Tighten the two screws.
  3. Install the two screws that were removed at the beginning of this step into the remaining two holes and tighten the four screws firmly. (Figure 9)

Attaching the Blades

Attaching the blade brackets to the blades
NOTE: Your fan blades are reversible. Select the blade side finish which best accentuates your decor.

  1. Attach blade to blade bracket using the screws as shown in figure 10. Start a screw into the bracket. Repeat for the two remaining screws.
  2. Tighten each screw securely.

Attaching the blade

  1. Fasten the blade assembly to the motor by inserting the alignment post into the slot on the bottom of the motor and tightening the motor screws. Please note that the motor screws are pre-attached into the blade brackets (Figure 11).
  2. Repeat step 1 for the remaining blades.

Blade balancing
All blades are grouped by weight. Because materials vary in density, the fan may wobble even though the blades are weight matched.
The following procedure should correct most fan wobble. Check after each step.

  1. Check that all blade screws are secure.
  2. 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 each blade to the point on the ceiling. Measure this distance as shown in Figure 12. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. Measurements deviation should be within 1/8”. Run the fan for 10 minutes.
  3. Make sure that canopy is tightened securely to ceiling mounting bracket and that the ceiling mounting bracket is tightened securely to the electrical box.
  4. Interchanging two adjacent blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in the smoother operation.
  5. Use the enclosed blade balancing kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.

Installing Light Kit

Installing the Light Kit Pan/ Light Kit Fitter Assembly/ Light Shade
CAUTION – To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect the electrical supply circuit to the fan before installing the light kit.

  1. Loosen but do not remove two of three mounting screws from the fan motor assembly; Remove one mounting screw. (Figure 13)
  2. Push the light kit pan up to the fan motor assembly so that the two loosened screw heads fit into the keyhole slots. Turn the light kit pan clockwise, then tighten the screws. Re-install the screw that was removed in step 1 and tighten firmly. (Figure 13)
  3. Remove one screw from the light kit pan and loosen, but do not remove the other two screws. Connect the wires from the light kit fitter assembly to the wires from the fan motor assembly by connecting the molded adaptor plugs together. Carefully tuck all wires and splices into the switch cap. (Figure 14)
  4. Push the light kit fitter assembly up so that the two loosened screw heads fit into the keyhole slots. Turn the light kit fitter assembly clockwise, tighten the screws.
    Re-install the screw that was removed in step 3 and tighten firmly. (Figure
  1. Place the shade into the light kit pan, aligning the three flat areas on the top of the shade with the three raised dimples in the light kit pan. Turn the shade clockwise until it stops. Make sure to twist the lens in completely. Exert enough force to get over the first bump and twist completely in.

Care of Your Fan and Troubleshooting

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. Do not use water when cleaning, this could damage the motor, or possibly cause an electrical shock. 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. Warning – Make sure the power is off before cleaning your fan.

  3. 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.

  4. There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated sealed ball bearings.

Troubleshooting

Problem  Solution
Fan will not start 1. Check main and branch circuit fuses or breakers

2. Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.
3. Check batteries in the transmitter. Does the red LED light come on? Are you standing close enough to the fan?
(Normal range is 10-20 feet.) Are the dip switch settings the same on the transmitter (hand unit) and receiver?
REMEMBER TO TURN OFF POWER SUPPLY BEFORE CHECKING THE DIP SWITCH SETTINGS IN RECEIVER.
Fan sounds noisy| 1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub are tight.
3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing.
CAUTION: Make sure power is off.
4. Allow a 24-hour “breaking in” period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this time.
5. If using the ceiling fan light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that the light bulb is also secure.
6. Make sure the canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.
7. Make sure your electrical box is secure and rubber isolator pads were used between the mounting bracket and electrical box.
