WARNING
!
WARNING: To avoid fire, shock, and serious personal injury, follow these instructions.
Safety Instructions
1. Read your owner’s manual carefully and keep it for future reference.
2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel
disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service
disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a warning device, such as a tag, to the
service panel.
3. 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.
4. Do not put anything into the fan blades while they are turning.
5. 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 satisfy National 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, 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.

SECTION A
Assembly Instructions
for Installing the CF2500 Ceiling
Fan with a SW375 Receiver and a
SR330 Remote Control or with a
SW350 Wall Control
1. Cut the white, blue, and black wires about 3"
above the motor coupling (Figure 1). Strip insulation 1/2" from end of wires and install a wire
connector on the black wire; this wire will not be
used. Remove the wire connectors from the red
and brown wires.
2. Loosen the setscrew in the hanger ball, slide the ball
down the downrod, and remove the clevis pin. Then
slide the hanger ball off the downrod (Figure 2).
Retain all parts for reinstallation in step 11.
3. Push the wiring harness connector and the connector on the blue wire (both supplied with the
SW375 Receiver and the SW350 Wall Control),
and the connector on the uplight yellow lead
assembly (supplied with the fan) through the
downrod until they all extend about 4” out of the
downrod (Figure 3).
4. Cut all wires approximately 3" from the end of the
downrod’. Strip insulation 1/2" from end of wires.

INSTRUCTIONS.
Electrical Requirements
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.
Uplight
This fan is supplied with a built-in uplight in the motor
housing. This uplight does not have a built-in switch to
turn it ON or OFF. A separate switch control must be
used to operate the uplight. This can be done with a
separate ON/OFF wall switch or one of the many
Emerson Fan/Light Controls, such as the SW375
Receiver, SR330 Remote Control or SW95L Controls.
The yellow lead supplied with this fan is the power
lead for the uplight.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked acceptable for
fan support, and use screws supplied with outlet
box. Mos 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
!
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 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.
WARNING
!
The Emerson CF2500 Ceiling Fan is designed to be
operated from a SR330 Remote Control, from a
SW350 Wall Control with a SW375 Receiver, or from
other fan/light controls. There are no controls supplied
with the ceiling fan. If you are going to control your
ceiling fan with a SR330 Remote Control or with a
SW350 Wall Control, proceed to “SECTION A”. If you
are to control your ceiling fan in any other manner,
proceed to “SECTION B”.

NOTE: Make sure the unused black motor lead is
capped with a wire connector. Make sure all wire
connectors are completely inside motor coupling
cover and not pinched between the motor
coupling cover and motor.
9. Screw two 1” threaded studs (supplied) into the
motor (Figure 6). Leave approximately 7/8” of the
stud extending above the motor. Slide the motor
cover over the downrod and rotate the cover until
the threaded studs protrude; install two knurled
knobs (supplied) to secure the cover.
10. Position the ceiling cover over the downrod. Be
sure the cover is oriented correctly, with the large
opening at the top (Figure 7).

5. Using wiring connectors (supplied), connect the
white, red, blue, brown, and yellow wires from the
downrod to the white, red, blue, brown and yellow
wires of the ceiling fan (Figure 4). Wires must be
connected color-to-color.
6. Fold all wires from the downrod into the slot in the
motor coupling, slide the downrod down the wires
and seat the downrod in the motor coupling. All
wires and wire connectors should be placed
through the motor coupling slot beneath the downrod (See Figure 5).
7. Align the clevis pin holes in the downrod with the
holes in the motor coupling. Install the clevis pin
and secure with the hairpin clip. The clevis pin
must go through the holes in the motor coupling
and the holes in the downrod (Figure 5). Push the
straight leg of the hairpin clip through the hole near
the end of the clevis pin until the curved portion of
the hairpin clip snaps around the clevis pin. The
hairpin clip must be properly installed to prevent
the clevis pin from working loose.
8. Install the setscrew (supplied in the loose parts
bag) in the motor coupling and tighten using the
5/32” setscrew wrench (supplied) (Figure 5).
Figure 4
It is critical that the clevis pin in the motor coupling
is properly installed and the setscrew securely
tightened. Failure to verify that the pin and setscrew
are properly installed could result in the fan falling.
