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 lbs) 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. • All set 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 part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

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 and remove the canopy screws and the mounting plate. Save the canopy screws for later use.
- Rotate and take out the motor hub cover as shown in Fig 1.2.
Installation: Mounting Options
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 ST5×24 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 lbs) 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 mounting plate connects with the supply Ground wire using the wire nut.
Connect the White wire to the supply White (Neutral) wire using a wire nut, connect the Black wire to the supply Black/Red (Hot/Live) wire using a wire nut.
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.
Installation: Securing the Fan
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: Fan Blades
Install the Fan Blades
- Locate 9 blade attachment screws and washers in the hardware pack. Slide the blade through the lamp cover and align three blade holes with the screw holes of the blade bracket and fasten the blade with the screws and washers as shown in Fig 6.1.
- Repeat for the remaining blades, The installation of the blades is shown in the Fig 6.2.
Installation: Motor Hub Cover & Power on
Reinstall the Motor Hub Cover

Troubleshooting
Try these troubleshooting steps before contacting Customer Service. For additional operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting information, please contact our customer service center.
SYMPTOM | POSSIBLE SOLUTION |
---|---|
Fan not spinning |
-
Make sure the fan is getting power.
-
Check your circuit breaker or fuse panel and wall switch for functionality.
-
Check to make sure the fan wires are correctly connected to the house wires.
-
Remote control must be paired with the fan within 1 minute after connecting the fan to the electricity.
-
If you have paired the remote but the fan still does not work or couldn’t pair the remote to the fan, try to reset the fan: to reset the fan, cut the power for 10 minutes, then turn the power on and press the pairing button on the remote for 3-5 seconds. Then test it.
-
Use a multi-meter and test the wiring harness to see if there is any electrical output.
-
All the pin wiring on the circuit board must be
inserted tight and in the correct position. -
Remote needs to be paired with the fan first.
-
Make sure the fan blades spin freely.
-
If you’re using a wall control, check the power to the breaker from your control and try working your ceiling fan manually. (Normal switch only for the fan power on/off)
Fan not working| Make sure the whole fan is powered.
The fan is noisy and wobbling|
- Check if the blade screws are NOT rubbing against any part of the motor housing.
- Check the pin wires are NOT connected against any moving parts.
- Check the down fan cup is NOT hitting the motor.
- Confirm the canopy is NOT touching the ceiling while the fan is in operation.
- Check the down rod is NOT slanted.
- Tighten any loose screws on the fan blades, motor coupling, down rod, brackets and mounting hardware.
- Confirm the hanger ball is firmly seated in the mounting bracket.
- The ceiling beam must meet the minimum tensile test strength of 30KG for installation.
- Make sure the blades and brackets are NOT bent or deformed.
- Verify the wire connections are not rattling against each other.
- Verify the fan blades are not cracked. If the fan blades are cracked, replace the damaged blades with a new blade set from the same brand as your ceiling fan to ensure compatibility.
Unable to pair remote|
- Check if the wires are connected in the correct position or not.
- Check the batteries in the remote.
- Disconnect the power for 10 minutes, reconnect the power and pair the remote with the fan immediately, within 1 minute.
Fan turning on or off by themselves|
- Confirm the circuit breaker is not malfunctioning.
- Verify the wire connections are not frayed.
- Cut the fan power for 10 minutes then power on again.
- All the pin wiring on the circuit 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.
