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. The light fixture supplied with the ceiling fan is designed to use a long neck 75-watt (maximum)
halogen flood lamp. Do not install a lamp that exceeds 75-watts.

7. 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.

5. Make sure the grommet is properly installed in the
coupling cover, then slide the coupling cover on
the downrod until it rests on the motor housing.
Place the ceiling cover over the downrod. Be sure
that the ceiling cover and the coupling cover are
both oriented correctly (Figure 4).

6. Reinstall the hanger ball (Figure 5) on the downrod
as follows. Route the three 80” motor leads through
the hanger ball. Position the pin through the two
holes in the downrod and align the hanger ball so the
pin is captured in the groove in the top of the hanger
ball. Pull the hanger ball up tight against the pin and
securely tighten the setscrew in the hanger ball.
A loose setscrew could create fan wobble.

Assembling and Hanging

the Ceiling Fan

1. Remove the fan motor assembly from the protec­tive plastic bag and then carefully remove the foam
shipping material from between the fan motor and
the upper housing (Figure 1).

2. Place the fan motor assembly in the lower styro­foam pad with the top of the motor facing up. The
lower styrofoam pad serves as a holder for the fan
motor assembly during the first stages of assembly.

3. Remove the hanger ball by loosening the setscrew
in the hanger ball until the ball falls freely down the
downrod (Figure 2). Remove the pin from the
downrod, then remove the hanger ball. Retain the
pin and hanger ball for reinstallation in step 6.

4. Separate, untwist and unkink the three 80” motor
leads. Route the motor lead wires through the
downrod. Remove the upper setscrew from 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 3). 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 downrod to make sure
the clevis pin is properly installed. Reinstall the
upper setscrew in the motor coupling (Figure 3).
Check that the two lower setscrews are tightened
securely.

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

4

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.
