DUAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
DUAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
This ceiling fan is supplied with two types of hanging assemblies: the standard ceiling installation using the downrod with ball and socket mounting, and the "close-to-ceiling" mounting. The "close-to-ceiling" mounting is recommended in rooms with less than 8 ft. ceilings or in areas where additional space is desired from the floor to the fan blades.
When using the standard downrod installation, the distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades will be approximately 12 in. The "close-to-ceiling" installation reduces the distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades to approximately 9 in.
Once you have decided which ceiling installation you will use, refer to the corresponding sections and procedures during the assembly period. Where necessary, each section of the instructions will note the different procedures to follow for the two types of installation.

MOUNTING OPTIONS
MOUNTING OPTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or
personal injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked acceptable for fan support using the screws provided with the outlet box. An outlet box commonly used for the support of lighting fixtures may not be acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
If your ceiling fan does not have an existing UL-listed mounting box, then install one using the following instructions:
Disconnect the power by removing the fuses or turning off
the circuit breakers.
Secure the outlet box (PP) (not included) directly to the
building structure. Use appropriate fasteners and materials (not included). The outlet box and its bracing must be able to fully support the weight of the moving fan (at least 35 lbs.). Do not use a plastic outlet box.
The illustrations below show three different ways to mount the outlet box (PP) (not included).
NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper
blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling. The maximum angle allowable is 18° away from horizontal. If the canopy (D) touches the hanger ball/downrod assembly (F), then remove the decorative canopy bottom cover (E) and turn the canopy (D) 180° before attaching the canopy (D) to the mounting bracket (A).

connections
WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring.
WARNING: Check to see that all connections are tight, including ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire nuts (except for the ground wire).
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.
If you feel you do not have enough electrical wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan installed by a licensed electrician.
Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your household wiring. Use the plastic wire nuts (AA) with your fan. Secure the plastic wire nuts (AA) with electrical tape. Make sure there are no loose strands or connections.
Motor to filter electrical connections: Connect the ground conductor of the 120V supply
(this may be a bare wire or a wire with green colored insulation) to the green ground lead(s) of the fan. When using standard ceiling mounting, there are two green grounding leads: one from the mounting bracket (A) and one from the hanger ball/downrod assembly (F). When using “close-to-ceiling” mounting, there is only one green ground lead from the mounting bracket (A) since the hanger ball/downrod assembly (F) is not used.
Turn the wire nut connections upward, spreading
them apart so the green (ground) will be on one side of the outlet box (PP) and the white, black and blue wire will be on the other side. Carefully tuck the connections up into the outlet box (PP).

Care and Cleaning
Do
Do not
Problem
Solution
Do
Check the support connections, brackets, and blade
attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may become loose over time. It is not necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling.
Clean your fan periodically. Use only a soft brush or
lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish. The plating is sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or tarnishing.
(Optional) Apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood
blades.
(Optional) Cover small scratches with a light application of
shoe polish.
Troubleshooting
WARNING: Make sure the power is off at the electrical
panel box before you attempt any repairs. Refer to the section “Making the electrical connections” on page 12.
Do not
Use water when cleaning. Water could damage the motor,
or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.
Apply oil to your fan or motor. The motor has
permanently-lubricated sealed ball bearings.
Problem
The fan will not start.
The fan sounds noisy.
Solution
Check the main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.
Check the line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.
Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade arm to the motor hub are tight.
Make sure wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch
housing.
Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this
time.
If using the ceiling light kit, check the light bulb is secure.
Make sure there is a short distance from the ceiling to the canopy. It should not touch the ceiling.
Make sure your ceiling box is secure and rubber isolator pads are used between the mounting bracket
and outlet box.

Troubleshooting (continued)
Problem
Solution
Problem
The fan wobbles.
Solution
Verify that all blades and blade bracket screws are secure (most fan wobble problems are caused by loose parts). Once the fan is properly installed, run the ceiling fan for 10 minutes to let the fan self-adjust.
If wobble occurs after running the fan for 10 minutes, verify blade level using the following process:
- Select a point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades, then select any fan blade and measure from the center of the selected blade to the point on the ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned and repeat the measurement using the same point from the ceiling for every blade. Measurement deviations should be within 1/8 in..
- If all deviations are less than 1/8 in. and the fan continues to wobble, please call Customer Service (1-855-HD-HAMPTON) to order a complimentary Blade Balancing Kit.
- If deviation is greater than 1/8 in., please call Customer Service (1-855-HD-HAMPTON) to order complimentary replacements of your brackets.
