Installation Instructions
!WARNING
The fan must be hung with at least 7' of clearance from floor to blades.
1.If your fan is to replace an existing ceiling light fix- tures, turn electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and remove the existing light fixture.
!WARNING
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All wiring must be in accordance with National and Local Codes and the ceiling fan must be properly grounded as a precaution against possible electrical shock.
!WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount fan to outlet box marked “Acceptable for Fan Support”, and use screws supplied with outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly used for support of light fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
!WARNING
The outlet box and joist must be securely mounted and capable of supporting at least 50 lbs. Use only a U.L. outlet box listed as “Acceptable for Fan Support”.
2.Install hanger bracket (item 1) to outlet box using the two screws supplied with the outlet box. Hanger bracket must seat firmly against outlet box. Remove wall board if necessary until bracket contacts box.
!WARNING
Hanger bracket must seat firmly against outlet box. If the outlet box is recessed, remove wall board until bracket contacts box. If bracket and/or outlet box are not securely attached, the fan could wobble or fall.
3.Run the downrod (item 3) through the ceiling cover (item 4). Run the three wires from the fan through the downrod.
4.The fan is supplied with a hanger ball/downrod assembly. Slide the downrod (Item 3) into motor mount adapter until the hole in the downrod aligns with the cross hole in the adapter. (Make sure wires do not twist during this step.) Next, insert clevis pin through cross holes in adapter and downrod. Install hairpin clip in hole in clevis pin. Now tighten the downrod setscrews securely to the downrod.
!WARNING
It is critical that the clevis pin in the motor mount adapter is properly installed and the setscrews securely tightened. Failure to verify that the clevis pin and setscrews are properly installed could result in the fan falling.
5.To attach switch housing (item 5) align the color stripes of connectors. Slide the connectors together until plastic latch on connector snaps over the tab on connector. Carefully tuck all wires and splices into the switch housing. Position switch housing (item 5) on plate and align the holes in the switch housing by installing the three screws in the side of plate.
NOTE: To install an accessory light kit, remove switch housing (item 5) and make light kit electrical connections to blue and white leads marked “For Light” in the switch housing. Follow light kit instructions for wiring and installation. Then reinstall switch housing as outlined above.
6.Lift the fan, without blades, and put the downrod assembly into the hanger bracket. Make sure to engage the groove on the hanger ball (item 2) with the tab on the hanger bracket (item 1) to prevent rotation.
!WARNING
Failure to seat tab in groove could cause damage to electrical wires and possible shock or fire hazard.
!WARNING
To avoid possible fire or shock, do not pinch wires between the hanger ball/downrod assembly and hanger bracket.
WIRING THE FAN. If you do not have enough electrical experience, have your fan installed by a licensed electrician.
NOTE: This fan comes with 80” long electrical leads. Before installing the fan, measure approximately 6 to 9 inches above the hanger ball/downrod assembly. Cut off excess leads and strip back insulation
!WARNING
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All wiring must be in accordance with National and Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly grounded as a precaution against possible electrical shock.
