How to Wire Your

Ceiling Fan

If you feel that you do not have enough electrical wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan installed by a licensed electrician.

!WARNING

To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. NOTE: If you are not sure if the outlet box is ground- ed, contact a licensed electrician for advice, as it must be grounded for safe operation.

1.Connect the green grounding lead from the hanger ball and the green grounding lead from the hanger bracket to the grounding conductor of supply (this may be a bare wire or wire with green colored insu- lation). Securely connect wires with wire connector supplied.

5.Secure the ceiling cover in place by sliding lock- washers over the threaded studs and installing the two knurled knobs (supplied). (Figure 5.) Tighten the knurled knobs securely until the ceiling cover fits snugly against the ceiling and the hole in the ceiling cover is clear of the downrod. Your fan is now wired to be turned on and off from the fan switch.

	the electricity on at the main fuse box.
2.	Check the operation of the fan by gently pulling on
	the pull chain switch.

NOTE: If you are using an Emerson Light Fixture with your fan, see Light Fixture Owner’s Manual for wiring.

2. Securely connect the fan motor white wire to the

supply white (neutral) wire using wire connector

supplied (Figure 4). Securely connect the fan motor

black wire and blue wire to the supply black (hot)

3. If airflow is desired in opposite direction, turn your

fan off and wait for the blades to stop turning, then

slide the reversing switch to opposite position, and

turn fan on again. The fan blades will turn in the

opposite direction and reverse the airflow.

Your fan model is equipped with a 4-position pull

chain switch. The operating sequence is as follows:

the white and green leads on one side of the outlet

box and the black and blue leads on the other side

of the outlet box.

!WARNING

Check to see that all connections are tight, including ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire connectors, except for the ground wire. Do not operate fan until blades are in place. Noise and fan damage could result.
