1. Read your owner’s manual carefully and keep it for future
reference.

2. Be careful of the fan and blades when cleaning, painting,
or working near the fan. Always turn off the power to the
ceiling fan before servicing.

3. Do not put anything into the fan blades while they are
turning.

4. Do not operate reversing switch until fan blades have
come to a complete stop.

Additional Safety Instructions for Installation

1. To avoid possible shock, be sure electricity is turned off
at the fuse box before wiring, and do not operate fan
without blades.

2. All wiring must be in accordance with the National
Electrical Code “ANSI/NFPA 70-2014” and Local
Electrical Codes. Use the National Electrical Code if
Local Codes do not exist. The ceiling fan must be
grounded as a precaution against possible electrical
shock. Electrical installation should be made or
approved by a licensed electrician.

3. The outlet box and joist must be securely mounted and
capable of reliably supporting at least 50 pounds. Use

,

,

only U.L. outlet boxes listed as “Acceptable for Fan
Support of 22.7 kg. (50 lbs.) or less”, and use the
mounting screws provided with the 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.

4. The downrod furnished with the fan provides the
minimum recommended floor to fan blade clearance for
an 8 foot ceiling.

5. The fan must be mounted with the fan blades at least
7 feet from the floor to prevent accidental contact with
the fan blades.

6. Follow the recommended instructions for the proper
method of wiring your ceiling fan. If you do not know
enough about electrical wiring, have your fan installed by
a licensed electrician.

NOTE: This fan is suitable for use with solid-state speed

controls.

NOTE: All setscrews must be checked and re-tightened

where necessary before installation.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this fan must be
installed with an isolating wall control/switch.

To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, this fan
should only be used with fan speed control, Model No.
UC8013R, manufactured by Rhine Electric Co., Ltd.

To avoid fire, shock or injury, do not use an Emerson or
any other brand of control not specifically approved for
this fan.

This product is designed to use only those parts supplied
with this product and/or any accessories designated
specifically for use this product by Emerson Electric Co.
Substitution of parts or accessories not designated for
use with this product by Emerson could result in
personal injury or property damage.

To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the
blade flange when installing the blade flanges, balancing
the blades or cleaning the fan. Do not insert foreign
objects in between rotating fan blades.

1. Unpacking Instructions (Continued)

THE FAN MODELS CF144BS & CF152BS ARE SUITABLE FOR

DAMP LOCATIONS SUCH AS COVERED PORCHES, COVERED PATIOS,

AND COVERED DECKS...ANYWHERE THERE IS A ROOF OVERHEAD.

THE FAN MODELS CF144GRT, CF144ORB, CF144WW, CF152GRT, CF152ORB,

& CF152WW ARE SUITABLE FOR WET LOCATIONS

SUCH AS PORCHES, PATIOS, AND DECKS.

This Manual Is Designed to Make it as Easy as Possible for You to Assemble,

Install, Operate and Maintain Your Ceiling Fan

Tools Needed for Assembly

One Phillips head screwdriver One stepladder
One wire stripper One wire cutter

Materials

Wiring outlet box and box connectors must be of type
required by the local code. The minimum wire would be a
3-conductor (2-wire with ground) of following size:

Installed Wire Length Wire Size A.W.G.
Up to 50 ft. 14
50-100 ft. 12

2. Electrical Requirements

IMPORTANT: Your ceiling fan will not function
properly, and may be damaged, if used with any wall
dimmer switch or control other than the Emerson
Electric Fan/Light Remote Control supplied with the
fan.

Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical
supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit.

The outlet box must be securely anchored and capable of
withstanding a load of at least 50 pounds.

Your Emerson ceiling fan comes supplied with a Fan/Light
Remote Control which consists of a receiver mounted
inside the ceiling cover of the fan motor housing. This
system allows you to regulate your ceiling fan speed and
light ON/OFF.

WARNING

Before assembling your ceiling fan, refer to section on
proper method of wiring your fan (page 8). If you feel you
do not have enough wiring knowledge or experience,
have your fan installed by a licensed electrician.

If your fan is to replace an existing ceiling light fixture, 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, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked “Acceptable for
Fan Support of 22.7 kg. (50 lbs.) or less”, 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.

U.L. Model No.: CF144 & CF152

!

WARNING

To avoid fire or shock, follow all wiring instructions
carefully.

Any electrical work not described in these
instructions should be done or approved by a licensed
electrician.
