Installation

MOUNTING OPTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked “Acceptable for fan support of 35 lb (15.9 kg) or less” and use the screws provided with the outlet box. An outlet box commonly used for the support of lighting fixtures may not be acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

If your ceiling fan does not have an existing UL Listed mounting box, then install one using the following instructions:

• Disconnect the power by removing the fuses or turning off the circuit breakers.
• Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use the appropriate fasteners and materials. The outlet box and its bracing must be able to fully support the weight of the moving fan (at least 35 lb). Do not use a plastic outlet box.

The illustrations below show three different ways to mount the outlet box .

NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling. The maximum angle allowable is 20° away from horizontal.

If the canopy (B) touches the ball/downrod assembly (D), then remove the decorative canopy bottom cover (C) and turn the canopy (B) 180° before attaching the canopy (B) to the mounting plate.
To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need an installation hanger bar as shown above (available at any Home Depot store).

Assembly – Standard Ceiling Mount

Preparation for standard mounting

• Remove the canopy bottom cover (C) from the canopy (B) by turning the bottom cover counterclockwise until it unlocks.
• Loosen the two canopy screws (PP) located in the bottom of the mounting bracket (A), and turn the canopy counterclockwise to remove the mounting bracket (A) from the canopy (B).

Routing the wires

• Route the wires exiting the top of the fan motor assembly (E) through the center of the canopy bottom cover (C).
• Make sure the opening of the canopy (B) is on top and insert the ball/downrod (D) through the canopy (B).
• Route the wires exiting the top of the fan motor assembly (E) through the downrod as shown.

Assembling the fan

WARNING: Failure to properly install the locking pin could result in the fan becoming loose and possibly falling.

• Loosen, but do not remove, the two setscrews (ZZ) on the collar on top of the fan motor assembly (E).
• Align the holes at the bottom of the downrod (D) with the holes in the collar on top of the fan motor assembly (E).
• Carefully insert the hanger pin (BB) through the holes in the collar and downrod (D). Be careful not to jam the hanger pin (BB) against the wiring inside the downrod (D).
• Insert the locking pin (CC) through the hole near the end of the hanger pin (BB) until it snaps into its locked position.
• Re-tighten the two setscrews (ZZ) on the collar on top of the fan motor assembly (E).

Assembly – Hanging the Fan

Attaching the fan to the electrical box

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or another personal injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked “Acceptable for fan support of 35 lb (15.9 kg) or less” and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box.

NOTE: The mounting bracket (A) is designed to slide into place on an outlet box with the outlet box screws (JJ).

• Pass the 120-Volt supply wires through the center hole in the slide-on mounting bracket (A).

• Install the ceiling slide-on mounting bracket (A) on the outlet box by sliding the slide-on mounting bracket (A) over the two screws (JJ) provided with the outlet box. If necessary, use leveling washers (not included) between the slide-on mounting bracket
  (A) and the outlet box. Note that the flat side of the slide-on mounting bracket (A) is toward the outlet box.

• Securely tighten the two mounting screws (JJ).

Hanging the fan

WARNING: When using the standard ball/downrod mounting, the tab in the ring at the bottom of the mounting bracket must rest in the groove of the hanger ball. Failure to properly seat the tab in the groove may result in fan wobble issues and potentially damage the wiring.

• Carefully lift the fan motor assembly (E) up to the slide-on mounting bracket (A).
• Seat the hanger ball portion of the ball/downrod assembly (D) in the mounting bracket socket. Ensure that the tab on the slide-on mounting bracket (A) socket is properly seated in the groove in the hanger ball.

Making the electrical connection

IMPORTANT: Use the plastic wire connectors (AA) supplied with your fan. Secure the connectors with electrical tape and ensure there are no loose strands or connections.
NOTE: The fan comes with 54 in. lead wires for use with an extended ball/ downrod assembly. If using the 4.5 in. ball/downrod assembly (D) provided, you can cut the lead wires to your desired length (no shorter than 12 in.). This will make extra room in the canopy (B). If you do not wish to cut the wires, you will need to neatly wrap them.

• Connect the fan motor white wires to the household white wire using a wire connecting nut (AA).
• Connect the fan motor black and blue wires to the household black wire using a wire connecting nut (AA).
• Secure each wire connecting nut (AA) using electrical tape.
• Turn the wire connecting nut (AA) upward and push the wiring into the outlet box (MM).

Wrapping the extra wire

NOTE : Follow this step ONLY if you did not cut the extra length off from the wires coming from the ceiling fan.

• Gently wrap the excess wire around the mounting bracket.
• Secure with electrical tape.

Attaching the canopy

• Align the locking slots of the canopy (B) with the two screws (PP) and alignment post (II) in the mounting bracket (A).
• Push up the canopy (B) and turn clockwise until the alignment post (II) engages to the round hole and the screws (PP) engage to the key slots.
• Firmly tighten the two mounting screws (PP).
• Install the decorative bottom cover (C) by aligning the cover slots with screws in the bottom of the canopy (B). Rotate the bottom cover (C) clockwise to lock in place.

Assembly – Attaching the Fan Blades

Attaching the blades to the blade brackets

• Attach a blade (K) to the blade bracket (J) by aligning the holes on the blade support plate (L) with the holes on blades
  (K) and blade bracket (J), inserting the screws (DD) into the holes in the blade support plate (L) and through the blade (K) and blade bracket (J).

• Tighten each screw to secure the blade (K).

• Repeat this step for each blade (K) and blade bracket (J).

Attaching the blade assemblies to the motor

• Attach the blade assembly to the motor assembly (E) by aligning the screw holes on the blade bracket (J) with the screw holes on the bottom of the fan motor assembly (E). Insert the screws (FF) and screw washers (EE) into the holes on the blade bracket (J) and through the holes on the bottom of the fan motor assembly (E), and tighten each screw to secure the blade assembly.
• Repeat this step for the remaining blade assemblies.

Assembly – Attaching the Light Kit

Installing the light kit pan

• Remove one screw (LL) from the black bracket below the fan motor assembly (E), and loosen but do not remove the other two screws (QQ).
• Push the light kit pan (F) up to the fan motor assembly (E) so that the two loosened screw heads fit into the keyhole slots. Turn the light kit pan (F) clockwise.
• Carefully push the square wire connectors together. One from the light kit pan (F) and one from the fan motor assembly (E).
• Re-install the screw (LL) that was removed in the first step.
• Make sure all the screws are firmly tightened.

Attaching the light kit fitter assembly

• Remove one screw (OO) from the light kit pan (F), and loosen, but do not remove the other two screws.

• Connect the wires from the light kit fitter assembly (G) to
  the wires from the fan motor assembly (E) by connecting the molded adaptor plugs together. Carefully tuck all wires and splices into the light kit pan (F).

• Push the light kit fitter assembly (G) up to the light kit pan (F) so that the two loosened screw heads fit into the keyhole slots. Turn the light kit fitter assembly (G) clockwise to secure.

• Re-install the screw (OO) that was removed in the first step.

• Make sure all the screws are firmly tightened.

Installing the glass shade

WARNING: Do not overtighten when installing the glass shade into the light kit. Allow the glass shade to cool completely before removing.

• With the power off, install the two LED bulbs (H) by screwing them into the light bulb sockets.
• Place the glass shade (I) into the light kit assembly, aligning the three flat areas on the top flange of the glass shade (I) with the three raised dimples in the light kit assembly. Turn the glass shade (I) clockwise until it stops.
• Attach the pull chain extensions (GG) to the light pull chain and the fan pull chain.

Operating Your Fan

Turn on the power and check the operation of the fan. The pull chain controls the fan speeds as follows:
1 pull – High, 2 pulls – Medium, 3 pulls – Low, 4 pulls – Off
The appropriate speed settings for warm or cool weather depends on factors such as the room size, ceiling height, and number of fans. The slide switch (XX) controls the direction of the blades: forward (switch left) or reverse (switch right).

NOTE: Wait for the fan to stop before reversing the direction of the blade rotation.

Warm weather – (Forward) A downward airflow creates a cooling effect. This allows you to set your air conditioner on a warmer setting without affecting your comfort.
Cool-weather – (Reverse) An upward airflow moves warm air off of the ceiling. This allows you to set your heating unit on a lower setting without affecting your comfort.

Care and Cleaning

WARNING: Make sure the power is off before cleaning your fan.

• Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. It is not necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling.
• Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the years. Do not use water when cleaning, as this could damage the motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock. 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.
• You can apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood for additional protection and enhanced beauty. Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.
• You do not need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently-lubricated sealed ball bearings.

Troubleshooting

breakers.

□  Check to make sure the wall switch is in the on position if applicable.

□  Check the line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.

The fan is noisy.| □  Ensure all motor housing screws are snug.

□  Ensure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub are tight.

□  Ensure the wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing.

□  Allow a 24-hour “breaking in” period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this time.

□  If you are using the ceiling fan light kit, ensure the glass shade is turned tightly. Check that the light bulbs are also secure.

□  Ensure the canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.

The fan wobbles.| □  Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.

□  Most fan wobble 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 from a point on the center of each blade to the point on the ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. Any measurement deviation should be within 1/8 in. Run the fan for ten minutes. If the fan continues to wobble please contact Customer Service and a balancing kit will be sent to you at no charge.
