All wiring must be in accordance with the National

Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70-1999 and local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by a

qualied licensed electrician.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of re or electric shock,

this fan should only be used with fan speed control part no. UC7067RC, manufactured by Rhine Electronic Co., Ltd.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only

the screws provided with the outlet box. The outlet box and support structure must be securely

The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 feet

clearance from the trailing edge of the blades to the oor.

Avoid placing objects in path of the blades.

To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and

other items, be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.

Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fan blades. A dry dust cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be suitable for most cleaning.

10. After making electrical connections, spliced conductors

Hanging the Fan

REMEMBER

Follow the steps below to hang your fan properly.

NOTE: This fan is recommended for the standard ceiling mounting using the downrod provided with this fan. When using standard ceiling installation, the distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the light kit will be approximately 28 inches.

THE FAN MUST BE MOUNTED WITH A MINIMUM OF 7 FEET CLEARANCE FROM THE TRAILING EDGE OF THE BLADES TO THE FLOOR.

IF YOU FEEL THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH ELECTRICAL WIRING KNOWLEDGE OR EXPERIENCE, HAVE YOUR FAN INSTALLED BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN.

Standard Ceiling Mounting

1. Remove the mounting plate from the canopy by loosening the four screws on the top of the canopy (Figure 4).

2. Route the wires exiting the top of the fan motor through the decorative motor collar cover and decorative downrod frame. Route the wires through the canopy and then through the ball/downrod assembly (Figure

3. Loosen, but do not remove, the set screws on the collar on the top of the motor housing.

4. Align the holes at the bottom of the downrod with holes in the collar on top of the motor housing (Figure 5). Carefully insert the bolt through the holes in the collar and downrod. Be careful not to jam the pin against the wiring inside the downrod. Insert the clevis pin through the hole near the end of the bolt until it snaps into its locked position as noted in the circle inset of Figure 5.

FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL THE LOCKING PIN AS NOTED IN STEP 4 COULD RESULT IN FAN LOOSENING AND POSSIBLY FALLING.

Installing Fan to the Outlet Box

1. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through the center hole in the ceiling mounting plate as shown in Figure 5.

2. Install the ceiling mounting plate on the outlet box by sliding the mounting plate over the two screws provided with the outlet box (Figure 5). If necessary, use leveling washers (not included) between the mounting plate and the outlet box. Note that

the at side of the mounting plate is toward

the outlet box (Figure 5).

3. Securely tighten the two mounting screws.

4. Carefully lift the assembly up to the ceiling mounting plate. Make sure the tab on the mounting plate socket is properly seated in the groove in the hanger ball.

Making the Electrical Connections

REMEMBER to disconnect the power. 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 wire connecting nuts supplied with your fan. Secure the connectors with electrical tape. Make sure there are no loose strands or connections (Figure 6).

Insert the receiver into the ceiling mounting

plate with the at side of the receiver facing

the ceiling. Connect both green wires from the down-

rod and mounting plate to the bare copper (Ground) from the outlet box

Connect the black wire (AC IN L) from the receiver unit to the black wire from the outlet box.

Connect the white wire (AC IN N) from

the receiver unit to the white wire from the outlet box.

Connect the white wire (To Motor N) from the receiver unit to the white wire from the fan assembly.

6. Connect the black wire (To Motor L) from

the receiver unit to the black wire from the

fan assembly.

7. Connect the blue wire (For Light) from the receiver unit to the blue wire from the fan.

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.

THE FREQUENCIES ON YOUR RECEIVER AND TRANSMITTER HAVE BEEN PRESET AT THE FACTORY. BEFORE INSTALLING THE RECEIVER, MAKE SURE THE DIP SWITCHES ON THE RECEIVER AND TRANSMITTER ARE SET TO THE SAME FREQUENCY. THE DIP SWITCHES ON THE TRANSMITTER ARE LOCATED INSIDE THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT.

EACH WIRE NUT (WIRE CONNECTOR) SUPPLIED WITH THIS FAN IS DESIGNED TO ACCEPT UP TO ONE 12 GAUGE HOUSE WIRE AND TWO WIRES FROM THE FAN. IF YOU HAVE LARGER THAN 12 GAUGE HOUSE WIRING OR MORE THAN ONE HOUSE WIRE TO CONNECT TO THE FAN WIRING, CONSULT AN ELECTRICIAN FOR THE PROPER SIZE WIRE NUTS TO USE.

Figure 6

Finishing the Fan Installation

WHEN USING THE STANDARD BALL/DOWNROD MOUNTING, THE TAB IN THE RING AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MOUNTING PLATE MUST REST IN THE GROOVE OF THE HANGER BALL. FAILURE TO PROPERLY SEAT THE TAB IN THE GROOVE COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO WIRING.

1. Align the four screw holes in the canopy with the four screw holes in the mounting plate.

2. Secure the canopy in place by using the four mounting screws that were removed in step 1, described on page 4 (Figure 4).

Attaching the Fan Blades

1. Attach blade to blade bracket, using the blade bracket support plate, screws and lockwashers provided (Figure 7). Start a screw into the blade bracket. Repeat for the remaining two screws.

2. Tighten each screw securely.

3. Remove the screw driver access cover on the light kit plate to expose the blade bracket screw holes (Figure 8a).

5. Align the two captive screws in the blade bracket with the screw holes in the center

ywheel and tighten the screws securely.

6. Repeat steps 1-5 for the remaining blade/ blade bracket assemblies.

7. Re-install the screw driver access cover removed in step 3 to the light kit plate.

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 and blade brackets 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 9. 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. If the fan continues to wobble please contact Customer Service and a balacing kit will be sent to you at no charge.

Figure 9

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.
