SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1
WARNING:
• To avoid risk of electrical shock, be sure to shut off power at the main fuse or circuit breaker
panel box before installing or servicing this fixture. Turning off the electrical power by using the
light switch only is not sufficient to prevent electrical shock hazard.
• To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury, mount to outlet box marked
“acceptable for fan support up to 35 lbs. (16 kg)” and use mounting screws provided with the
outlet box. The total weight of this fan is approximately 20 lbs. (9 kg).
• All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 and any
applicable local codes. Electrical installation should be performed by a qualified licensed
electrician.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control
device.
• Do not bend the blade iron brackets when installing the brackets, balancing the blades, or
cleaning the fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between rotating fan blades.
CAUTION:
• To reduce the risk of injury, install the fan so that the blades are at least 7 feet (2.1 meters)
above the floor and at least 20 inches (0.5 meters) from the tip of the blades to the wall.
• Check and retighten all screws, nuts, and bolts to insure they are secured prior to operating the
fan.
• Be sure the outlet box is properly grounded and that a ground wire (green or bare) is present.
• When changing (reversing) the blade direction, turn off the fan and wait for the fan blades to
stop completely.
• To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, do not use power tools to assemble any part of the
fan, including the blades.
• To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only parts provided with this fan. The use of parts
other than those provided with this fan will void the warranty.
• Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fan blades. A dry dust cloth or lightly
dampened cloth is recommended to prevent scratching and will be suitable for most cleaning.
• In case this fan needs to be returned to the factory for repairs, it must be shipped in its original
carton and foam inserts to insure proper protection against shipping damage that may exceed
the initial cause for return.
• Please read and understand these safety instructions and the installation guide before
attempting to assemble, install, or operate the fan.

DIMENSION REFERENCE
A: 12.8 in. B: 10.9 in. C: 10.1 in. D: 5.9 in.
Choose one of the following mounting options:
Downrod Mount is best suited for ceilings 8 ft. or higher. For taller ceilings you may
want to use a longer downrod (sold separately).
Angled Ceiling Mount is best suited for angled or vaulted ceilings. A longer downrod is
sometimes necessary to ensure proper blade clearance from the ceiling. If using the
angled mount, check to ensure that the ceiling angle is not steeper than 15 degrees.
NOTE: Make sure blades are at least 30 inches from any wall or obstruction and at least
7 feet above the floor.

outlet box (not included) using the
screws and washers provided with the
outlet box.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire
electrical shock, or personal injury,
mount to the outlet box marked
“acceptable for fan support” using the
mounting screws and washers provided
with the outlet box.

bracket. Rotate the downrod until
the tab in the mounting bracket is
seated in the slot in the downrod ball.

motor screws from the underside of
the motor. Discard the motor blocks
but keep the motor screws for
installation of the blade arms.

housing cover is not installed yet but will
be installed in step 12. See below.
10. Partially insert three blade screws,
along with the blade washers,
through the blade and into the blade
arm, tighten each screw blade screw,
starting with the one in the middle.
Repeat this step for the remaining
blades and blade arms.
11. Secure the blade arm to the
underside of the motor using the
motor screws removed in Step 10.
Secure each blade arm to motor
before moving to the next.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Use the fan reverse switch, located on
the switch housing to optimize your
fan for seasonal performance. Using
a ceiling fan will allow you to raise
your thermostat setting in summer
and lower your thermostat setting in
winter without feeling a difference in
your comfort.
In warmer weather, move the reverse
switch to the left which will result in
downward airflow creating a wind
chill effect.
In cooler weather, move the reverse
switch to the right which will result in
upward flow that can help move
stagnant, hot air off the ceiling area.
IMPORTANT: Wait for fan to stop
before moving the reverse switch.
The reverse switch must be set either
completely to the left or right for the
fan to function correctly. If the
reverse switch is set in the middle
position, the fan will not operate.

TROUBLESHOOTING
FAN DOES NOT START:
• Check the circuit breaker and confirm the power is ON.
• Make sure the wall switch is ON.
• Pull the pull chain to make sure it is on. Typical pull chain operation is 1
st
pull – high speed, 2
nd
pull –
medium speed, 3
rd
pull – low speed, 4
th
pull OFF.
• Check that the motor reversing switch is correctly engaged and set to left or right position. Fan will not
run if switch is in the middle.
• Confirm that the blades spin freely and that there are no obstructions between the blades or into the
motor housing. Turn off power at circuit breaker and at wall switch, loosen the canopy, and check that
all wiring connections from the household supply wires to the fan wires are secure.
FAN IS NOISY:
• Make sure all screws are snug and secure including blade screws into the blade irons, blade irons onto
the motor, and screws on canopy and switch housing cover.
• Make sure all blades and blade irons are properly installed.
• Some ceiling fan motors are sensitive to solid state variable speed controls. If the fan is controlled by
these types of controls remove the control and replace it with a control specifically designed for use
with ceiling fans.
FAN WOBBLES:
• Make sure the fan mounting bracket is securely tightened to the ceiling outlet box and the ceiling box is
securely fastened to the ceiling joist or other adequate support structure.
• Confirm that the hanger ball is properly seated in the mounting bracket. The tab in the mounting
bracket should be seated in the slot in the downrod ball.
• Make sure all blades are installed correctly and all screws are secure. Also confirm that the two set
screws in the downrod are tight in the yoke.
• Balance the fan blades using the blade balancing kit included with the fan.
WARNING: Before beginning any troubleshooting or maintenance work always shut off the power supply
to avoid electrical shock hazard.
