Important Safety Instructions
WARNING: To avoid fire, shock and serious personal injury, follow these instructions.
1. Read your owner’s manual and safety information before installing your new fan. Review the accompanying assembly diagrams.
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 insert anything into the fan blades while the fan is operating.
5. Do not operate reversing switch until fan blades have come to a complete stop.
Additional Safety Instructions
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 and installation procedures must satisfy National Electrical Codes (ANSI/ NFPA 70-1999) and Local Codes. 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 fan base must be securely mounted and capable of reliably supporting at least 50 lbs. See page 4 of owner’s manual for
support requirements. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
4. The fan must be mounted with the fan blades at least 7 feet from the floor to prevent accidental contact with the fan blades.
5. Follow the recommended instructions for the proper method of wiring your ceiling fan. If you do not have adequate electrical
knowledge or experience, have your fan installed by licensed electrician.

Energy Effi cient Use of Ceiling Fans
Ceiling fan performance and energy savings rely
heavily on the proper installation and use of the ceiling
fan. Here are a few tips to ensure efficient product
performance.
Choosing the Appropriate Mounting Location
Ceiling fans should be installed, or mounted, in the middle
of the room and at least 7 feet above the floor and 18
inches from the walls. If ceiling height allows, install the fan
8 - 9 feet above the floor for optimal airflow. Consult your
Fanimation Retailer for optional mounting accessories.
Turn Off When Not in the Room
Ceiling fans cool people, not rooms. If the room is
unoccupied, turn off the ceiling fan to save energy.
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.
Using the Ceiling Fan Year Round
Summer Season: Use the ceiling fan in the counter-
clockwise direction. The airflow produced by the ceiling
fan creates a wind-chill effect, making you “feel” cooler.
Select a fan speed that provides a comfortable breeze,
lower speeds consume less energy.
Winter Season: Reverse the motor and operate the ceiling
fan at low speed in the clockwise direction. This produces
a gentle updraft, which forces warm air near the ceiling
down into the occupied space.Remember to adjust your
thermostat when using your ceiling fan - additional energy
and dollar savings could be realized with this simple step!

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.
▲
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.

How to Assemble Your Ceiling Fan
1. Remove the Hanger Ball by loosening the setscrew
in the Hanger Ball until the ball falls freely down the
Downrod. (Figure 1) Remove the Pin from the Downrod,
then remove the Hanger Ball. Retain the Pin and Hanger
Ball for reinstallation in Step 5.
2. The fan comes with blue, black and white 80˝ wires.
Separate & untwist the three wires. Route the wires
through the downrod.
NOTE: You will be using either the 6˝ downrod supplied with
your fan or an optional downrod purchased separately.
3. Loosen the two setscrews in the Downrod Support. Align
the Clevis Pin holes in the Downrod with the holes in the
Downrod Support. Install the Clevis Pin and secure with
the Hairpin Clip. (Figure 3) 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.

WARNING
It is critical that the clevis pin in the downrod support
is properly installed and the setscrews are securely
tightened. Failure to verify that the pin and setscrews
are properly installed could result in the fan falling.
4. Route wires through Motor Coupling Cover, Canopy
(with Canopy Screw Cover) on fan shown with open side
facing up. (Figure 3)
5. Reinstall the Hanger Ball (Figure 1) on the Downrod
as follows. Route the three 80˝ wires and cable 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. Securely tighten
the setscrew in the Hanger Ball. A loose setscrew
could create fan wobble.
6. While pulling up on the hanger ball, securely tighten the
two setscrews with nuts in the downrod support. Slide the
Motor Coupling Cover down until it snaps in place.
(Figures 2 & 3)
7. Before installing fan, measure up approximately 6-9
inches above top of Downrod/Hanger Ball Assembly. Cut
off excess wire and strip back insulation ½˝ from end of
wire.
