SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
- Before you begin installing the fan, shut power off at the circuit breaker of the fuse box.
- Make sure that all electrical connections are in accordance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and local codes. Hire a licensed electrician if you are unfamiliar with installing electrical wiring.
- Make sure the installation site you choose allows the fan blades to rotate without any obstructions. Allow a minimum clearance of 2.1m (7 feet) from the floor and 18 inches from the tip of the blades to the wall.
- The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted and capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 35 pounds. Use only U.L. listed outlet boxes marked “Acceptable for Fan Support of 15.9 kg (35 Ibs) or less”.
- Before and after you install the fan, make sure that all mounting components are secured to prevent the fan from falling.
- Do not insert anything into the fan blades while the fan is operating.
- To change the direction of the rotation of the blades, the fan must be in operation mode.
- Allset screws must be checked and retightened where necessary before installation.
- After making the wire connections, the wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding conductor on one side of the outlet box and the ungrounded conductor on the other side of the outlet box.
- The splices after being made should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box. Conductor wiring identified as grounded is to be connected to a grounded conductor of power supply. Conductor wiring identified as ungrounded conductor is to be connected to an ungrounded conductor. Conductor wiring identified for equipment grounding is to be connected to an equipment- grounding conductor.
- This device complies with part15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

Installation
‘WARNING: To avoid serious injury or death, turn off the power at the
circuit breaker before installing the fan.
Disassemble the Motor
Take the motor assembly out of the box, use a screwdriver to loosen the canopy screws and remove the mounting plate. Save the screws for later use.
Install the Mounting Plate
You have two options for mounting plate installation. Pick which one works best for your location
WARNING: Turn off the power from the breaker circuit first!
Note: For better fan performance, make sure the mounting plate is level.
Option 1: Fasten the mounting plate with the ST5x24 wood setscrews (included) when securing to the wooden ceiling beam or support structure with an approved electrical outlet box as shown in Fig **2.1.
**
Option 2: Use machine screws (provided with outlet box) and washers when securing to an existing ceiling fan-rated outlet box. If the mounting plate is installed at the outlet box, it should be installed on the outlet box with the screws that came with your outlet box itself. Pull the supply wires (the black, white and ground wires) out of the outlet box and through the hole in the mounting plate and lay them to the side.
WARNING: DO NOT use the plastic outlet box. Use only U.L. listed outlet boxes marked *Acceptable for Fan Support of 15.9 kg (35 Ibs) or less”.
Installation: Wiring
Hang the Fan
Carefully lift the fan-motor assembly. Hang the motor assembly on the hook of
the mounting plate by utilizing one of the holes at the outer rim of the motor
housing so that it is securely suspended.
Connect the Wiring
The Green/Yellow wire from the mounting plate connects with the supply Ground wire using the wire nut.
Connect the White wire from the motor to the supply White (Neutral) wire using a wire nut.
Connect the Black wire from the motor to the supply Black/Red (Hot/Live) wire using a wirenut.
Then hide them inside the motor housing. (Make sure all the wires are
connected to the correct colors as shown in Fig 4.1)
Attach the other end of safety rope to a safe place. Note: Installing the
ceiling fan with a safety rope is an extra safety feature, It secures the far
to the ceiling hook or safe place and avoids the fan from falling even in the
case of material failure.
Secure the Fan
Reinstall two of the four canopy screws (located across from each other) that were removed in step 1 to the mounting plate, but DO NOT tighten them yet.
Using both hands, lift the fan body from the hook. Align the two key slots in the top of the motor assembly with the two loosened screws on the mounting plate.
Push the fan motor assembly up and turn it counterclockwise to lock in the mounting plate. Tighten the two screws. Reinstall the other two canopy screws into the remaining two holes and tighten the four screws firmly.
WARNING: Falling fan hazard, make sure all screws are tightened to secure the fan motor assembly.
Installation: Blade Brackets & Blades
Install the Blade Brackets
Locate 10 blade bracket attachment screws in the hardware pack. Install the blade bracket screws to secure each blade bracket to the motor hub securely.
Repeat these steps for the remaining blade brackets. Make sure all the screws are firmly tightened
Install the Fan Blades
Locate 15 blade attachment screws with integrated washers in the hardware pack. Make sure the screw holes on each fan blade matches the corresponding holes on the blade bracket and tighten the blade screws as shown in Fig 7.1.
Five blades are installed as shown in Fig 7.2
Installation: Decorative Cover & Power On
Install the Decorative Cover
Align the decorative cover slot with the slot of the motor, and turn it
clockwise to securely lock into the motor as shown in Fig 8.1
The decorative cover installed is shown in Fig 8.2,
‘WARNING: To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH, make sure that the decorative cover is properly secured.

by themselves| 0 Confirm the druit breaker Is not
malfunctioning. C0 Verify the wire connections are not frayed. Cut
the fan power for 10 minutes then power on again. All the pin wiring
on the drcuk board must be Inserted tight and in the correct position.
Care & Cleaning
- Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may become loose over time. It is not necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling.
- Clean your fan periodically. 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.
- (Optional) Apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood blades.
- (Optional) Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.
DO NOT:
- Use water when cleaning. Water could damage the motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.
- Apply oil to your fan or motor. The motor has permanently lubricated sealed ball bearings.
WARNING: Power off the fan before performing maintenance or cleaning the fan.
