Read and Follow These Safety Precautions

  1. Turn off clectricity at main switch before wiring or servicing fan in order to avoid possible electrical shock.

  2. All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electric Code (ANSI/NEPA70-1999) and local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.

  3. Afier making the wire connections, the wires should be spread aparc with the grounded conductor and the cquipment-grounding conductor on the one side of the outlet box
    and the ungrounded conductor on the other side of the outlet box. .

  4. The splices afier being made should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box.

  5. Conductor of a fan identificd as grounded conductor to be connected to grounded conductor of power supply; conductor of a fan identified as ungrounded conductor to be connected to an ungrounded conductor of power supply; conductor of fan identified for equipment grounding to be conneeted t0 an equipment-grounding conductor.

  6. Fan should not be mounted in an arca where it might get wet.

  7. To reduce the risk of fire, clectric shock or personal injury, mount to outlet box marked “Acceptable for Fan Support” and use mounting screws provided with the outlet bos.
    The oulet box and its support must be able to support the moving weight of the fan (at least 351bs).

  8. For safety and best operating results, we recommend that you have a qualified electrician assemble and install your fan.

  9. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or clectric shock, do not use this fan with any solid state speed control device.

  10. To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the blade brackets when installing the brackes, balancing the blades or cleaning the fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between rotating fan blades.

  11. Check downrod length to ensure blades are at least 7 feet (2.1m) above the floor.

Before Assembly

  1. Make sure that the fan voltage (120) is compatible with your own electrical system.
  2. Check to make sure that your carton contains all the parts mentioned in the parts list.
    NOTE: The box can be used as a work space to prevent any damage on the ornamental surface.
    CAUTION: Before installing, choose a location for mounting the fan where the blades have at least 7 feet of clearance from all objects and floor. Mount an outlet box to the ceiling or use an existing box
    CAUTION: Do not mount fan to sheetrock or drywall type materials. To ensure proper support, use the two #1 wood screws to secure mounting bracket to joist or beam. If the location you choose does not have a suitable support beam, install a 2″x 4” brace between ceiling joists for a proper support.

Forward and reverse direction function

This ceiling fan is equipped with reverse switch for downward or upward air- flow.

NOTE: Do not change the direction of rotation while the fan blades are in motion. To change direction, turn off the fan and wait for the blades to stop roatating before setting the switch to the desired rotation direction, either forward or reverse.


IMPORTANT:
Reverse switch must be set either completely left or completely right  for fan to function. If the reverse switch is set in the middle position, fan will not operate.

NOTE: Do not use the Reverse Switch when the fan blades are in motion.

Forward function

  • On this setting, the fan will turn counterclockwise to create a cooling effect. Use this function during warmer weather to circulate the hot air away from your living space.

Reverse function

  • On this setting, the fan will turn clockwise. Use this function during cooler weather to re-circulate warm air.”

Maintenance

  • Because of the fan’s constant spinning movement, some connections may become loose. Check the support connections, brackets and blade attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. There is no need to oil your fan.
  • The motor has permanently-lubricated bearings

Care and Cloaning

  • Dust your fan periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh cleaners or materials as they may damage the unit.
  • To prevent bending the blades during cleaning, support the blades so that no pressure is applied to them.

Caution!
Do not allow water to come in contact with fan blades or the ceiling fan.
Doing so will create fire and/or shock hazards, damaging property.

Troubleshooting Steps

Problem A: Fan Will not Start

  1. Check fuse o circuit breaker and replace it f necessary
  2. Turn off electrical power and check all wire connectors.
  3. See operation instructions.

Problem B Fan s Excessively Noisy

  1. Check if all screws in fan assembly are tight and properly scated.
  2. Check and make sure mounting bracket is installed properly.
  3. Check and make sure light kit and glass re installed properly and tight.

Problem C: Fan Wobbles

  1. Check and make sure all blades are screwed firmly into blade holders.
  2. Check and make sure all blade holders are screwed firmly into motor.
  3. Check the weight of blades. All our blades are weighed on electronic scales. The weight is marked on the reverse side of the fan blade near the motor end. All of the blades should be the same weight to prevent fan from wobbling.
  4. Use the enclosed balancing kit if needed
