PACKAGE CONTENTS

INITIAL INSTALLATION

1. Turn off the circuit breakers and the wall switch to the fan supply line leads.

DANGER: Failure to disconnect the power supply prior to installation may result in serious injury or death.

2. Determine the mounting method to use.

Standard mounting is best suited for ceilings 8 ft. or higher. For taller ceilings you may want to use a longer downrod (not included).

Angle mounting is best suited for angled or vaulted ceilings. A longer downrod is sometimes necessary to ensure proper blade clearance. Note: If using the angle mount, check to ensure the ceiling angle is not steeper than 16°.

Flushmount installation is not available for this item.

Closemount installation is not available for this item.

3. Ensure the blades (L) will be at least 30 in. from any obstructions. Also check the downrod (A) length to ensure the blades (L) will be at least 7 ft. above the floor.

4. Loosen all four preassembled mounting bracket screws (P), and completely remove the two mounting bracket screws (P) from the round holes of canopy (E). Set aside for later use. Turn the canopy in a counterclockwise direction. Detach mounting bracket (D) from canopy (E)

5. Attach mounting bracket (D) to outlet box (not included) using screws and washers provided with the outlet box.

CAUTION: It is very important you use the proper hardware when installing the mounting bracket (D) as this will support the fan.

STANDARD OR ANGLE MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Remove the downrod clip (C) and downrod pin (B) from the downrod (A). Then partially loosen the set screws (Q) in the yoke at the top of the motor assembly (G).

2. Insert the downrod (A) through the canopy (E) and yoke cover (K). Feed the wires from the motor assembly (G) through the downrod (A).

3. Slide the downrod (A) into the yoke of the motor assembly (G), align the holes, then re-install the downrod pin (B) and downrod clip (C). Secure with the two set screws (Q) and slide the yoke cover (K) down until it rests on top of the motor assembly (G).

4. Depending on the length of downrod you use, you may need to cut the lead wires back to simplify the wiring. If you decide to cut back the lead wires, it is suggested you do so in the following manner: Take the lead wires and make sure you have pulled them all the way through the top of the downrod. Measure inches of lead wire, then cut the excess wire off with wire cutters (not included).

5. If you decided to cut back the lead wire in Step 4, strip in. of insulation from the end of the white wire. Twist the stripped ends of each strand of wire within the insulation with pliers (not included). Repeat the step for black and blue wires.

Note: If you did not cut back the lead wires in Step 4, Step 5 is not necessary and you may proceed to Step instead.

6. Install the ball end of the downrod (A) into the opening of the mounting bracket (D). Align the slot in the ball with the tab in the mounting bracket (D). Note: The downrod should not rotate if it is installed correctly.

DANGER: Failure to align the slot in the downrod (A) with the tab of the mounting bracket (D) may cause the fan to wobble or fall, which could result in serious injury or death.

WIRING

WARNING: 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 and there is more than one house wire to connect to the two fan lead wires, consult an electrician for the proper size wire connectors to use.

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

1. Use wire connectors (AA) to connect household supply and fan wires according to the diagram and these steps:

Connect the Green wires from the downrod (A) and mounting bracket (D) to the Bare/Green supply wire.
Connect the White wire from the fan to the White neutral) supply wire.
Connect the Black wire from the fan to the Black hot)supply wire.

Important: The Black wire is power for the fan. The White wire is common/neutral. The Green wire is the ground wire. If supply wires are different colors than referred to above, a professional electrician should determine proper wiring.

2. Wrap electrical tape (not included) around each individual wire connector (AA) down to the wire.

3. Turn the spliced/taped wires upward and gently push the wires and wire connectors (AA) into the outlet box.

WARNING: Ensure no bare wire or wire strands are visible after making connections. Place the Green and White wire connections on the opposite side of the outlet box from the Black wire connection.

FINAL INSTALLATION

1. Align the canopy (E) over the loose mounting bracket screws (P) preassembled on mounting bracket (D). Place the keyholes of the canopy (E) onto the mounting bracket screws (P) and rotate the canopy (E) clockwise.

2. Secure the canopy (E) with the mounting bracket screws (P) previously removed (Step 4, page 8). Tighten all mounting bracket screws (P) securely.

3. Insert blade (L) through slot in the side of the motor assembly (G). Align the holes of one blade (L) with three blade screw holes in underside of the motor assembly (G). Secure blade (L) with three blade screws (BB) and blade washers (CC). Repeat for the remaining blades (L).

4. Remove one and loosen the other two fitter plate screws (I) but do not remove from fitter plate (H). Feed the single-pin connector through center hole in light pan. Align the two key slots in the light pan (N) with the loosened fitter plate screws (I). Place the light pan (N) over the two screws and turn the light pan (N) clockwise. Then tighten the two fitter plate screws (I). Re-install the fitter plate screw (I) that was removed in the previous step and tighten firmly.

5. Remove one and loosen the other two light pan screws (O) from the underside of the light pan (N). Connect the single-pin connector from the fitter plate (H) to the single-pin connector from the light kit (J) blue to black and white to white. Align the key slot in the light kit (J) with the loosened screws in the light pan (N). Turn light kit (J) clockwise and replace the previously removed light pan screw (O). Tighten all screws.

6. Lift the glass bowl (M) over the light kit (J) and turn in a clockwise direction until it is secure. CAUTION: Avoid cross-threading the glass during installation. Improper installation could cause the glass bowl (M) to be difficult to remove or fall, which could cause serious injury.
