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 downrod 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

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

REMEMBER to turn off the power before you begin installation. This is necessary for your safety.

To properly install your ceiling fan, follow the steps below.

Step 1. Before attaching fan to outlet box (not included), ensure the outlet box is securely fastened to at least two points to a structural ceiling member (a loose box will cause the fan to wobble). Pass the 120 volt supply wires from the ceiling outlet box through the center of the ceiling mounting bracket. Install mounting bracket to outlet box in ceiling using the screws and washers included with the outlet box. (Fig. 5)

Step 2. Remove the retaining clip and hitch pin from the downrod assembly. Remove the hanger ball from the downrod assembly by loosening the set screw on the hanger ball (do not remove), unscrewing and removing the cross pin, and unscrewing the hanger ball (counterclockwise) from the downrod. (Fig. 6)

NOTE: Make sure to keep removed hardware separate to avoid confusion during installation.

Step 3. Loosen the two set screws (do not remove) on the motor coupling. (Fig. 7)

HANGING THE FAN (CONTINUED)

Step 4. Carefully feed fan wires and safety cable up through the downrod. Thread the downrod into the motor coupling until the hitch pin holes are aligned. Next, replace the hitch pin and retaining clip.

NOTE: Be careful not to jam the hitch pin against the wiring inside of the downrod. Tighten both set screws. (Fig. 8)

Step 5. Slip the coupling cover, canopy trim ring (smooth finished side facing motor body) and canopy onto the downrod. Carefully reinstall the hanger ball onto the downrod. Carefully reinstall the cross pin through the hanger ball and downrod.

NOTE: Be careful not to jam the cross pin against the wiring inside of the downrod.

Make sure the cross pin is in the correct position. Tighten the cross pin. Tighten the set screw on the hanger ball. Make sure the wires are not twisted. (Fig. 9)

Step 6. Lift the motor body into position and place the hanger ball into the mounting bracket. Rotate the entire assembly until the "Check Tab" has dropped into the "Registration Slot" and seats firmly. (Fig. 10) The entire motor body should not rotate if this is done correctly.

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 SUPPORT (Required For Canadian Installation Only)

A safety support cable is provided to help prevent the ceiling fan from falling, please install it as steps below.

Step1. Slip the spring washer, then the flat washer onto the wood screw, then drive the wood screw into the side of the brace that holds the outlet box. Leave 3mm (1/8") of space between the support brace and the flat washer. (Fig.11)

Step2. Insert the safety cable through the mounting bracket and one of the holes in the outlet box into the ceiling. Adjust the length of the safety cable to reach the screw and flat 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 flat washer. Tighten the wood screw securely. (Fig.12)

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

MAKE THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure you have turned off the power at the main circuit panel before wiring. Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your household wiring. Use the wire connectors supplied with your fan. Secure the connectors with electrical tape. Make sure there are no loose wire strands or connections.

WARNING: If your house wires are in 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 (black) wire and light supply (blue) wire to the household supply (black) wire as shown in Figure 13.

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

Step 3. Connect the fan ground wire (yellow/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.

Fig. 13

FINISHING THE INSTALLATION

CAUTION: Before continuing installation, confirm that the power is still turned off at the main circuit breaker or by removing the circuit fuse. Turning the power off using a wall switch is not sufficient to prevent electrical shock.

Step 1. Loosen the two shoulder screws at the bottom of the mounting bracket (do not remove). (Fig. 14)

Step 2. Raise the canopy to the mounting bracket. Place the key hole slots in the canopy over the shoulder screws in the mounting bracket. Rotate the canopy (clockwise) until the canopy locks in place against the shoulder screws (at the narrow ends of the key hole slots). Tighten the two shoulder screws to secure the canopy in place. (Fig. 15)

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

Step 3. Raise the canopy trim ring to the canopy. Place the key hole slots in the canopy trim ring over the heads of the shoulder screws. Rotate the canopy trim ring (clockwise) until it locks in place against the shoulder screws (at the narrow ends of the key hole slots). (Fig. 16)

NOTE: Adjust the shoulder screws as necessary until the canopy and canopy trim ring are snug. (Fig. 16)

ATTACHING THE FAN BLADES

CAUTION: Before continuing installation, confirm that the power is still turned off at the main circuit breaker or by removing the circuit fuse. Turning the power off using a wall switch is not sufficient to prevent electrical shock.

Step 1. NOTE: The holes in the fan blades and the holes in the motor flywheel are marked "A", "B", or "C". Line up the holes in the fan blades with the holes in the motor flywheel (Line up A to A, B to B, and C to C). Attach fan blades to the flywheel with the washers and fan blade mounting screws provided. Tighten to secure. (Fig. 17)

INSTALLING THE SWITCH COVER

CAUTION: Before continuing installation, confirm that the power is still turned off at the main circuit breaker or by removing the circuit fuse. Turning the power off using a wall switch is not sufficient to prevent electrical shock.

Step 1. Remove the mounting plate screw that is marked with a brown dot label from the mounting plate. Retain mounting plate screw. Loosen the other two mounting plate screws (do not remove). (Fig. 18)

INSTALLING THE SWITCH COVER (CONTINUED)

Step 2. Place the key hole slots in the switch cover over the 2 mounting plate screws that were loosened on the mounting plate. Rotate the switch cover (clockwise) until it locks in place against the mounting plate screws at the narrow ends of the key hole slots.

Align the remaining hole in the switch cover with the remaining hole in the mounting plate. Install the mounting plate screw that was removed from the mounting plate into the aligned holes. Tighten all 3 mounting plate screws to secure the switch cover in place. (Fig.19)

INSTALLING THE SWITCH HOUSING

CAUTION: Before continuing installation, confirm that the power is still turned off at the main circuit breaker or by removing the circuit fuse. Turning the power off using a wall switch is not sufficient to prevent electrical shock.

Step 1. Remove the three preinstalled mounting screws from the outside edge of the switch cover. Retain mounting screws. (Fig. 20)

INSTALLING THE SWITCH HOUSING (CONTINUED)

Step 2. Raise the switch housing close to the fan, and push the square wire connectors together (one from the fan and one from the switch housing). (Fig.21)

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

Step 3. Carefully push all the wires into the switch housing. Attach the switch housing to the switch cover with the mounting screws that were removed in Step 1. Make sure each screw is tight. (Fig. 21)

Step4. Install the pull chain extension and fob. (Fig. 22)

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. (Fig. 23)

1st pull = High, 2nd pull = Medium, 3rd pull = Low and the 4th pull turns the fan motor off.

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

The switch on the side of the switch housing controls the direction of the fan blades, "Forward" or "Reverse". (Fig. 23)

Warm Weather Operation: Forward (fan rotates counter clockwise). A downward airflow creates a cooling effect (Fig. 24). 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 (Fig. 25). This allows you to set your heating unit on a cooler setting without affecting your general comfort.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem 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.

1. Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noise associated with a new fan disappears during this time.

2. 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.

3. Do not connect this fan to a wall mounted variable speed control(s). They are not compatible with ceiling fan motors or remote controls.

4. 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 probems are caused when blade levers 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.
