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. The installation is to be in accordance with the National Electrical Code, “ANSI/NFPA 70-1999” 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.

WARNING

Installing The Hanger

Ball/Downrod Assembly

(For Standard Mounting)

1. Pass the 42" motor leads through the opening in the ceiling cover. Be sure the cover is oriented correctly.

2. Separate, untwist and unkink the three motor leads. Route the motor leads through the hanger ball/downrod assembly.

3. Loosen the two setscrews in the motor coupling. 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 (Figure 2). The clevis pin must go through the holes in the motor coupling and the holes in the downrod. Be sure to 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. Pull on the hanger ball to make sure the clevis pin is properly installed.

IMPORTANT

Your ceiling fan is designed to be installed either in the standard manner, or in the close-to-the-ceiling manner. Using the standard method, the hanger ball/downrod assembly will suspend the fan several inches below the ceiling cover. Using the close-to-the-ceiling method, the ceiling cover installs directly on the fan motor housing, thus mounting the fan 3-1/2 inches closer to the ceiling than the standard method. In no case should the fan blades be lower than seven feet above the floor. Depending on your desired mounting method, proceed to “INSTALLING HANGER BALL/DOWNROD ASSEMBLY” for standard mounting, or to “INSTALLING CEILING COVER ON FAN MOTOR HOUSING” for close-to-the-ceiling mounting.

It is critical that the clevis pin in the motor coupling is properly installed and the setscrews securely tightened. Failure to verify that the pin and setscrews are properly installed could result in the fan falling.

WARNING

4. While pulling up on the hanger ball, securely tighten the two setscrews in the motor coupling (Figure 2).

NOTE: The setscrews must be properly installed as described above, or fan wobble could result.

5.The fan comes with blue, black and white leads that

are 42” long. Measure up approximately 6 to 9-inches above top of hanger ball/downrod assembly. Cut off excess leads and strip back insulation 1/2-inch from end of leads.

1. Loosen the two screws in the keyholes slots of the ceiling cover. Remove and retain the other two screws and lockwashers (Figure 1).

2. Turn the ceiling cover and remove the hanger bracket.
