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

2. Electrical Requirements

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

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.

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

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.

3. Ceiling Fan Assembly

1. Pass the 42” motor leads through the opening in the

ceiling cover. Be sure the cover is oriented
correctly (Figure 1).

2. Separate, untwist and unkink the three motor leads.

Route the motor leads through the hanger
ball/downrod assembly.

3. Loosen the two screws 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 1). 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.

Figure 1

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.
