Electrical and Structural Requirements
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 lbs. Figure 1 depicts
different structural configurations that may be used for
mounting the outlet box.
▲
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked acceptable for
fan support. 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.

If your fan is to replace an existing 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 sufficent. 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.
How to Assemble Your Ceiling Fan
1. Remove the Clevis Pin, Hairpin Clip, Hanger Ball and
Pin by loosening the setscrew in the Hanger Ball. Retain
the Clevis Pin, Hairpin Clip, Hanger Ball and Pin for
reinstallation. (Figure 1)
2. The fan comes with blue, black, white 80" wires.
Separate and untwist the three wires . Route the wires
through the Downrod.
NOTE: You will be using either the 6" or the optional
downrod purchased separately.

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.
4. Route wires through Motor Coupling Cover and
through opening in Canopy Screw Cover and Canopy.
Position Canopy Screw Cover and Canopy on fan

housing and securely tighten the screws (3 per blade)
provided. (Figure 4)
9. Before installing fan, measure up approximately 6-9
inches above top of Downrod/Hanger Ball Assembly. Cut
off excess wire and strip back insulation 1/2" from end of
wire.
10. You have now completed the assembly of your ceiling
fan. You can now proceed with the hanging and the
electrical wiring of your fan.
