• After you install the fan, make sure all connections are secure to prevent the fan from falling.
• The net weight of this fan including the light kit is: 18.7 lbs.

DANGER

When using an existing outlet box, make sure the outlet box is securely attached to the building structure and can support the full weight of the fan. Failure to do this can result in serious injury or death. The stability of the outlet box is essential in minimizing wobble and noise in the fan after installation is complete.

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, DO NOT use power tools to assemble any part of the fan, including the blades.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, mount fan to outlet box marked “ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT OF 35 LBS. (15.87 KG) OR LESS” and mounting screws provided with the outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly used for the support of lighting fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

When mounting fan to a ceiling outlet box, use a METAL octagonal outlet box; do NOT use a plastic outlet box. Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. The outlet box and its support must be able to support the moving weight of the fan (at least 35 lbs.).

To avoid personal injury, the use of gloves may be necessary while handling fan parts with sharp edges.

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, wire connectors provided with this fan are designed to accept only one 12-gauge house wire and two lead wires from the fan. If your house wire is larger than 12-gauge or there is more than one house wire to connect to the corresponding fan lead wires, consult an electrician for the proper size wire connectors to use.

To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not use the fan with any solid state speed control device or control fan speed with a full range dimmer switch.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, do not bend the blade arms when installing them, balancing the blades, or cleaning the fan. Do not insert objects between the rotating fan blades.

To reduce the risk of personal injury, use ONLY parts provided with this fan. The use of parts OTHER than those provided with this fan will void the warranty.

Before installation, be sure to shut off electricity at main switch or circuit breaker in order to avoid electrical shock.

CAUTION

Be sure outlet box is properly grounded and that a ground wire (green or bare) is present.

Once installation is complete, carefully check all screws, bolts and nuts on fan motor assembly to ensure that they are secured.

INITIAL INSTALLATION

1. Turn off circuit breakers and wall switch to the fan supply line leads.
   DANGER: Failure to disconnect power supply prior to installation may result in serious injury or death.
   

2. Determine mounting method to use.
   A. Downrod mount (standard or angled ceiling)
   B. Closemount (standard ceiling only)
   IMPORTANT: If using the angle mount, ensure the ceiling angle is not steeper than 20°.
   *Helpful Hint: Downrod-style mounting is best suited for ceilings 8 ft. or higher. For taller ceilings you may want to use a longer downrod (not included). Angle-style mounting is best suited for angled or vaulted ceilings. A longer downrod is sometimes necessary to ensure proper blade clearance. Closemount mounting is more suitable for ceilings lower than 8 ft. high.
   

3. Check to make sure blades (K) will be at least 7 ft. above the floor and at least 30 inches from any obstruction.
   

4. Secure mounting bracket (A) to outlet box (not included) using screws, spring washers and flat washers provided with the outlet box.
   *NOTE: It is very important you use the proper hardware when installing the mounting bracket (A) as this will support the fan.
   IMPORTANT: If using the angle mount, make sure open end of mounting bracket (A) is installed facing the higher point of the ceiling, and ensure the ceiling angle is not steeper than 20°.
   

5. Remove motor screws/lock washers (N) from underside of motor housing (H) and save for blade arm (M) attachment later on. [If there are plastic motor blocks installed with the motor screws/lock washers (N), discard the plastic motor blocks.] For DOWNROD-STYLE FAN MOUNTING, proceed to step 1 below.
   For CLOSEMOUNT-STYLE FAN MOUNTING, skip to page 10.
