SAFETY INFORMATION

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

• Do not discard fan carton or foam inserts. Should this fan need to be returned to the factory for repairs, it must be shipped in its original packaging to ensure proper protection against damage that might exceed the initial cause for return.

• Make sure all electrical connections comply with local codes, ordinances, the National Electrical

Code and ANSI/NFPA 70-1999. Hire a qualified electrician or consult a do-it-yourself wiring handbook if you are unfamiliar with installing electrical wiring.

• Make sure the installation site you choose allows a minimum clearance of 7 ft. from the blades to the

floor and at least 30 in. from the end of the blades to any obstruction.

• After you install the fan, make sure all connections are secure to prevent the fan from falling.

• The net weight of TLEII44 is: 16.5 lbs.

• The net weight of TLEII52 is: 21 lbs.

DANGER

When using an existing outlet box, make sure the outlet box is securely attached to the building structure and can support the full weight of the fan. Failure to do this can result in serious injury or death. The stability of the outlet box is essential in minimizing wobble and noise in the fan after

installation is complete.

SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, mount fan to outlet box

marked "ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT OF 35 LBS. OR LESS" and use mounting screws provided with the outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly used for the support of lighting fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

When mounting fan to a ceiling outlet box, use a METAL octagonal outlet box; do NOT use a plastic outlet box. Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. The outlet box and its support must be able to support the moving weight of the fan (at least 35 lbs.).

To avoid personal injury, the use of gloves may be necessary while handling fan parts with sharp edges.

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, wire connectors provided with this fan are designed to accept only one 12-gauge house wire and two lead wires from the fan. If your house wire is larger than 12-gauge or there is more than one house wire to connect to the corresponding fan lead wires, consult an electrician for the proper size wire connectors to use.

To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not use the fan with any solid state speed control device or control fan speed with a full range dimmer switch.

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, do not bend the blade arms when installing them, balancing the blades or cleaning the fan. Do not insert objects between the rotating fan blades.

To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only parts provided with this fan. The use of parts OTHER than those provided with this fan will void the warranty.

Before proceeding, be sure to shut off electricity at main switch or circuit breaker in order to avoid electrical shock.

CAUTION

Be sure outlet box is properly grounded and that a ground wire (green or bare) is present.

Before beginning installation, carefully check all screws, bolts and nuts on fan motor assembly to ensure that they are secured.

NOTE: Dimmable to 10% with select dimmers.
