MOUNTING OPTIONS

If there isn’t an existing UL (cUL for Canadian Installation) listed mounting box, then read the following instructions. Disconnect the power by removing fuses or turning off circuit breakers.
Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use appropriate fasteners and building materials. The outlet box and its support must be able to fully support the full weight
of the fan (up to 15.9 kg (35 pounds)). Do not use plastic outlet boxes.
Figures 1, 2 and 3 are examples of different ways to mount the outlet box.

NOTE: If you are installing the ceiling fan on a sloped (vaulted) ceiling, you may need a longer down rod to maintain proper clearance between the tip of the blade and the ceiling. A minimum clearance of 12″ is suggested for optimal operation.

NOTE: Depending on the location you have selected for installation, you may need to purchase and install a “Joist Hanger” for the support of the outlet box. Make sure the joist hanger you purchase has been designed for use with ceiling fans. (Fig. 4)

HANGING THE FAN

WARNING: All set screws must be checked, and retightened where necessary, before installation.

REMEMBER to turn off the power before you begin.
To properly install your ceiling fan, follow the steps below.

Step 1. Remove the canopy trim ring from the canopy by turning the canopy trim ring counter clockwise. (Fig. 5)

Step 2. Remove the ceiling mounting bracket from the canopy by removing and saving one of the two screws. Loosen the remaining screw by a half turn. (Fig. 5)

Step 3. Pass the 120 volt supply wires from the ceiling outlet box through the center of the ceiling mounting bracket. (Fig. 6)

Step 4. Attach the ceiling mounting bracket to the outlet box using the screws and washers included with the outlet box. (Fig.6)

WARNING: All set screws must be checked, and retightened where necessary, before installation.

Step 5. Remove the hanger ball from the down rod assembly by loosening the set screw, unscrewing and removing the cross pin and unscrewing the ball off of the rod. (Fig. 7)

Step 6. Loosen the two set screws and remove the hitch pin and retaining clip from the coupling on top of the motor assembly. (Fig. 8)

Step 7. Carefully feed the electrical lead wires and safety cable from the motor assembly up through the down rod. Thread the down rod into the coupling until the hitch pin holes are aligned.
Next, replace the hitch pin and retaining clip. Tighten both set screws. (Fig. 8)

Step 8. Slip the coupling cover, canopy trim ring and canopy onto the downrod. (Fig. 9) Thread the hanger ball onto the downrod, insert the cross pin through the downrod and tighten. Now tighten the set screw. (Fig. 9)

Step 9. Lift the motor assembly into position and place the hanger ball into the ceiling mounting bracket.
Rotate the entire assembly until the “Check Tab” has dropped into the “Registration Slot” and seats firmly. (Fig. 10)

The entire motor assembly should not rotate (left or right) when seated properly.

WARNING: Failure to reattach the cross pin and seat the “Check Tab” can cause the fan to fall from the ceiling during operation. Take special care to make sure this pin is reattached.

INSTALLATION OF SAFETY CABLE

(required for Canadian installation ONLY}
A safety support cable is provided to help prevent the ceiling fan from falling, please install it as follows.

Step 1. Attach the wood screw and washer to the ceiling joist next to the mounting bracket but do not tighten. (Fig. 11)

Step 2. Adjust the length of the safety cable to reach the screw and washer by pulling the extra cable through the cable clamp until the overall length is correct, put the end of the cable back through the cable clamp, forming a loop at the end of the cable. Tighten the cable clamp securely. Now, put the loop in the end of the safety cable over the wood screw and under the washer. Tighten the wood screw securely.

NOTE: Although the safety support cable is required for Canadian installations only, it’s a good idea to make the attachment with any installation.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

CAUTION: To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure you have turned off the power at the main circuit panel.
Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your household wiring. Use the wire connecting nuts supplied with your fan. Secure the connectors with electrical tape.

WARNING: If your house wires are different colors than referenced in this manual, stop immediately. A professional electrician is recommended to determine proper wiring.

WARNING: Check to see that all connections are tight, including ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire connections.

Step 1. Connect the fan supply wire (black) and light supply wire (blue) to the household supply hot wire (black). (Fig. 12)

Step 2. Connect the fan neutral wire (white) to the household neutral wire (white).

Step 3. Connect the fan ground wire (green) to the household ground wire.

Step 4. After connecting the wires, turn the wire connecting nuts upward, and push the wiring into the outlet box. Spread them apart so that the green (ground) and white (neutral) wires are on one side of the outlet box and the black (hot) wires are on the other side.

FINISHING THE INSTALLATION

CAUTION: To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure you have turned off the power at the main circuit panel.

Step 1. Tuck all the connections neatly into the ceiling outlet box.

Step 2. Slide the canopy up to the mounting bracket and place one of the key hole slots over the mounting screw on the mounting bracket. Rotate the canopy until the screw head locks in place at the narrow section of the key hole. See figure 13.

Step 3. Align the remaining circular hole on the canopy with the remaining hole on the Ceiling Mounting Bracket. Insert and tighten the mounting screw you removed earlier and the mounting screw from Step 2 above.
Now, attach the canopy trim ring to the mounting screw heads by inserting the screw heads into the bottom side of the canopy trim ring and rotating the canopy trim ring clockwise.

NOTE: Adjust the canopy screws as necessary until the canopy and canopy trim ring are snug. (Fig.13)

WARNING: Make sure the “Check Tab” at the bottom of the hanger bracket is properly seated in the “Registration Slot” on the side of the hanger ball before attaching the canopy to the bracket.

ATTACHING THE FAN BL ADES

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the electrical supply circuit to the fan before installing fan blades.

Step 1. Insert fan blade through a slot in the flywheel.(Fig.14) Align the holes in the fan blade with the holes in the flywheel and attach the fan blade to the flywheel with two blade mounting screws.Tighten blade mounting screws to secure.

Step 2. Repeat for the remaining fan blades.(Fig.14)

INSTALLING THE MOUNTING PLATE

CAUTION: To Reduce The Risk Of Electric Shock, Disconnect The Electrical Supply Circuit To The Fan Before Installing The Mounting Plate.

Step 1. Loosen two of the screws on the mounting ring attached to the motor shaft, and remove and save the third screw. (Fig. 15)

Step 2. Place the key holes in the mounting plate over the 2 screws that were loosened on the mounting ring, and turn mounting plate clockwise until it locks in place at the narrow section of the key holes. Tighten both key hole screws. Replace the third screw that was previously removed, and tighten to secure. (Fig. 15)

INSTALLING THE SWITCH HOUSING

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the electrical supply circuit to the fan before installing switch housing.

Step 1. While holding the switch housing under your ceiling fan, push the square wire connectors together. One from the fan and one from the switch housing. (Fig.16)

NOTE: The connectors will ON LY engage when the color coded strips are matched (aligned).

Step 2. Carefully push all the wires into the switch housing.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Turn the power on and check the operation of your ceiling fan.
The pull chain controls the 3 speeds of your ceiling fan.

1st pull= High, 2nd pull= Medium, 3rd pull= Low and the 4th pull turns the fan motor off.
The black slide switch on the side of the switch housing controls the direction of the blades “Forward and Reverse”.

WARNING: Do not operate reversing switch while fan blades are in motion. Fan must be turned off and blades stopped before reversing blade direction.

Warm Weather Operation: ” Forward ” (fan rotates counter clockwise)
A downward airflow creates a cooling effect as shown in Fig. 17. This allows you to set your air conditioner on a warmer setting without affecting your general comfort.

Cool Weather Operation: “Reverse” ( fan rotates clockwise). An upward airflow moves warm air off the ceiling areas as shown in Fig. 18. This allows you to set your heating unit on a cooler setting without affecting your general comfort.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem

• Fan will not start.
• Fan sounds noisy.
• Fan wobble.

Solution

Fan will not start.

1. Check circuit fuses or breakers.
2. Check all electrical connections to ensure proper contact. CAUTION: Make sure the main power is OFF when checking any electrical connection.

Fan sounds noisy.

1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade brackets to the motor are tight.
3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rubbing against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing. CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.
4. Allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period. Most noise associated with a new fan will disappear during this time.
5. If using an optional light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Make sure the light bulbs are not touching any other component.
6. Do not connect this fan to wall mounted variable speed control(s). They are not compatible with ceiling fan motors or remote controls.
7. Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.

Fan wobble.

1. Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.
2. Most fan wobbling 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 this distance. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. The distance deviation should be equal within 1/8″.
3. If the blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side) blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother operation.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY AND TO ENSURE THE PROPER OPERATION OF YOUR CEILING FAN, NEVER ATTACH THE BLADE ASSEMBLIES UNTIL THE CEILING FAN HAS BEEN MOUNTED ON THE CEILING. DO NOT BEND THE BLADE WHILE INSTALLING, BALANCING OR CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT INSERT FOREIGN OBJECTS BETWEEN ROTATING FAN BLADES.
