ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLING THE FAN
Tools required: phillips screwdriver, a pair of pliers, straight slot
screwdriver, adjustable wrench, step ladder, and wire cutters.
The ceiling fan must be installed in the location where there is 12″(300mm)
spacing from the tips of all blades to the nearest objects or walls. REMEMBER
to turn off the power before hanging the fan. Follow the instruction below to
hang your fan properly:
- Thread the wires in the junction box through the Mounting Bracket Fasten the hanger to the junction box using #8-32 Mounting Bolts(2) and Star Washers(2).
- For concrete ceiling, drill two holes in the ceiling and secure the mounting bracket to the ceiling with two 0.32″(8mm) (distance between the two holes should be appropriate) expansion screws, flat washers nuts provided and tighten with a spanner.
- For wood ceiling, secure the mounting bracket to the ceiling that is capable of carrying a load of at least 100lbs (45kgs) with four long mounting screws and washers provided. Be sure at least #10-12(38mm) of the screw is threaded into the support.
- For installing the outlet box, secure it directly to the building structure. Use appropriate fasteners and building materials. The outlet box and its support must be able to fully bear the moving weight of the fan (at least 100lbs). Use a UL listed metal outlet box instead of plastic ones. Figure 1& 2 show the examples of mounting the outlet box.
- Refer to the Fig. on the right to mount when the ceiling is angled (Max. 15°).
NOTE: The hanger must be able to withstand the weight of 100lbs (45kgs) or more after the installation.

-
Finally, install the two screws and the green ground wire back into place and lock them.
INSTALLING THE FAN TO MOUNTING BRACKET ON CEILING
WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure the electricity is
turned off in the main fuse box before wiring. Carefully lift the fan assembly
onto the mounting bracket and rotate the fan until the notch on downrod ball
“A” engages the ridge on the mounting bracket “B”. This will allow for hands
free wiring.
INSTALLING THE LIGHT KIT
- Remove the three screws from the base.
- Thread the Light cord through the center hole of the Light kit and plug it into the socket.
- Install the light Kit on the base with the three screws.
MAKE THE ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS
WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure the electricity is
turned off in the main fuse box before wiring.
- Connect the fan to the remote control. The fan’s 3P plug should insert into the remote control’s 3P plug.
- Connect the light to the remote control. The light’s 3P plug should insert into the remote control’s 3P plug.
- Connect the remote control to the house’s power line, then connect the remote control’s white wire to the house’s white wire. Connect the remote control’s black wire to the house’s black wire, and connect all the fans’ green ground wires to the house of ground wires. Secure wires.
When the remote control is connected, place it over Mounting Bracket inside and arrange the wires.
INSTALLING THE CANOPY
Loosen the 2 screws on the bottom of mounting bracket but do not remove
them. Raise the canopy up and align the keyholes on the bottom of the canopy
with the 2 screws on the bottom of mounting bracket. Rotate the canopy until
both screws from the mounting bracket drop into the slot recesses. Tighten
screws.
LAMP SHADE MOUNTING
Carefully install the lamp shade into the main body and turn clockwise to
lock.
Installation is now finished. Turn on the power . Then the fan lights are on. Test and pair your fan immediately using the remote control.
REMOTE CONTROL SETTING AND OPERATION
-
Restore electricity to the outlet box by turning the electricity on at the main fuse box.
-
Remove the battery cover from the remote control transmitter, install the battery, and replace the cover.
Note: -
Please use two 1.5v AAA sections to power the remote transmitter.
-
If not used for a long period, remove the battery to prevent damage to the remote transmitter, and store the remote transmitter away from excess heat or humidity.
-
Batteries are not included in the package, please purchase separately.
-
The buttons on the remote control transmitter control the fan speed and light as follows.
Press the F/R key when the fan is running, and the fan will automatically stop and rotate in the opposite direction.
If needed, install the remote control holder onto a wall or any other suitable flat surface using appropriate fasteners. For wood or other thinner and weaker surfaces, use the provided steel screws and plastic anchors. For reinforced concrete or similar surfaces, use anchor bolts for best results.
HOW TO USE BALANCING KITS
NOTE: ceiling fans tend to move during operation because they are mounted on a Sponge cushion. if the fan was mounted rigidly to the ceiling, it would cause excess vibration, movement of a few centimeters is quite acceptable and does not suggest any problems.
TO REDUCE FAN WOBBLE: PLEASE CHECK THAT ALL SCREWS WHICH SECURE THE MOUNTING BRACKET AND DOWNROD ARE SECURE.
BALANCING A WOBBLING CEILING FAN
please follow this procedure when balancing the fan:
- Check that all blades and blade arm screws are secure.
- Most fan wobbling problems result from blade levels are unequal. Check this level by selecting a point on the ceiling above one fan blade’s tip. 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″ (0.32cm).
- Use the enclosed blade balancing kit if the blade wobbling is still noticeable.
- If the blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side-by-side) blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in smooth operation.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, DO NOT BEND THE BLADE ARM WHILE INSTALLING, BALANCING THE BLADES, OR CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT INSERT OBJECTS BETWEEN ROTATING FAN BLADES.
NOISE
It’s normal to hear small occasional noises when in quiet night or days.
Please allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period, most noises of a new fan
disappear during that time.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
- Periodically cleaning your ceiling fan is the only required maintenance. Use a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the paint. Please turn off the electricity power before you clean your fan.
- Do not use water when cleaning your ceiling fan. It could damage the motor or the blades or even evoke an electrical shock.
- The motor has a permanently lubricated ball bearing. No need to oil
NOTE: MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF IN THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX BEFORE YOU DO ANY CLEANING OR REPAIRS.
