SAFETY RULES
Before you begin installing the fan, shut power off the circuit breaker of the fuse box.
1.
2. Be cautious! Read all instructions and safety information before installing your new fan. Review accompanying assembly diagrams.
3. Make sure that all electrical connections comply with local codes, ordinance, or National Electrical Codes. Hire a qualified electrician or
consult a do-it-your self wiring handbook if you are unfamiliar with installing electrical wiring.
4. Make sure the installation site you choose allows the fan blades to rotate without any obstructions. Allow a minimum clearance of 7 feet
from the floor and 18 inches from the top of the blades to the wall.
5. If you are mounting the fan to a ceiling fan outlet box, use a U.L Listed metal octagonal outlet box marked"Acceptable For Fan Support".
Secure the 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 50 pounds). Do not use a plastic box.
6. Caution: To reduce the risk of injury use only the screws provided with the outlet box in conjunction with the lock washers provided with
the fan.
7. If you are mounting the fan to a joist, make sure it is able to support the moving weight of the fan (at least 50 pounds).
8. After you install the fan, make sure that all mounting components are secured to prevent the fan from falling.
9. Do not insert anything into the fan blades while the fan is operating.
10. Turn the fan off and wait for the blades to stop completely before performing any maintenance or cleaning.

MOUNTING OPTIONS
If there isn't an existing mounting box, then read the following instructions. Disconnect the
power by removing fuses or turning off circuit breakers.
Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use appropriate fasteners and
building materials. The outlet box and its support must be able to fully support the moving
weight of the fan (at least 50 lbs.).Use a UL listed metal outlet box.
Do not use a plastic outlet box.
Figure1,2 and 3 are examples of different ways to mount the outlet box.

a steep, sloped ceiling. Longer downrods are available from your Minka-Aire dealer.
To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need to
install a hanger bar as shown in Fig.4(available at your Minka Aire dealer or local hardware store).

CARE OF YOUR FAN
Here are some suggestions to help maintain your fan.
1.Because of the fan’s natural movement some connections may
become loose. Check the support connections, brackets and blade
attachment twice a year. Make sure they are secure.(It is not necessary
to remove fan from the ceiling).
2.Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over
the years. Use only a soft brush or lint free cloth to avoid scratching
the finish. Plated finishes are sealed with lacquer to minimize
discoloration or tarnishing.
Do not use water when cleaning, this could damage the motor, wood
blades or possibly cause an electrical shock.
3.Use a lint free lightly damp cloth or duster to remove dust from the
blades.
4.There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently
lubricated bearings.
5.If your fan is provided with glass shades, clean with lukewarm
soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. DO NOT IMMERSE
GLASS SHADES IN HOT WATER. DO NOT PUT GLASS SHADES
INTO AN AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER.
