rod and mounting plate to the bare copper
(Ground) from the outlet box
2. Connect the black wire (AC IN L) from
the receiver unit to the black wire from the
outlet box.
3. Connect the white wire (AC IN N) from
the receiver unit to the white wire from the

4. Connect the white wire (To Motor N) from
the receiver unit to the white wire from the
fan assembly.
5. Connect the black wire (To Motor L) from
the receiver unit to the black wire from the
fan assembly.
After wires are connected, carefully tuck them
into the outlet box. Insert the receiver unit into
the mounting plate; make sure the black antenna
wire sits on top of the receiver unit.

Finishing the Fan
Installation
STANDARD CEILING MOUNTING
1. Align the locking slots of the ceiling canopy
with the two screws in the mounting plate.
Push up to engage the slots and turn clockwise to lock in place. Immediately tighten
the two mounting screws rmly.
2. Install the remaining two mounting
screws into the holes in the canopy and

Attaching the
Fan Blades
1. Attach blade to blade arm using decorative
screws and screws as shown in Figure 10.
Start a screw into decorative screws. Repeat
for the two remaining decorative screws and
screws.
2. Tighten each screw securely.
3. Repeat steps 1 & 2 for the remaining
blades.
Figure 10
Figure 11
Blade Balancing
All blades are grouped by weight. Because natural woods vary in density, the fan may wobble
even though the blades are weight matched.
The following procedure should correct most
fan wobble. Check after each step.
1. Check that all blade screws are secure.
2. Most fan wobble problems are caused when
blade levels are unequal. Check this level by
selecting a point on the ceiling above the tip
of one of the blades. Measure from a point
on the center of each blade to the point on
the ceiling. Measure this distance as shown
in Figure 11. Rotate the fan until the next
blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat
for each blade. Measurement deviations
should be within 1/8”. Run the fan for 10
minutes.
3. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the
blade wobble is still noticeable.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY,
DO NOT BEND THE BLADE HOLDERS WHILE
INSTALLING, BALANCING THE BLADES, OR
CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT INSERT FOREIGN
OBJECTS BETWEEN ROTATING BLADES.
