SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Turn o power at main electrical service box before starting installation.
2. Electrical connections must comply with local code ordinances or national
electrical codes.
3. Make sure the installation site you choose allows the fan blades to rotate freely
without any obstructions.
4. When mounting the fan on a ceiling outlet box, use an approved (CSA for Canada
and UL for U.S.) ceiling fan box marked
“FOR FAN SUPPORT”.
Ensure the outlet box is securely installed in place such that it is able to
support at least the fan weight.
5. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury,
mount fan only to an outlet box marked acceptable for fan support 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.
6.Total fan weight for reference: 36" approximate 6 kg (13 lb 4 oz).
- To reduce the risk of personal injury
DO NOT bend the blade brackets when
installing the brackets, balancing the blades or cleaning the fan. Also,
DO NOT
insert foreign objects in between rotating fan blades.
- Mount with the lowest moving parts at least 2.10m (7’) above floor or grade
level.
-
DO NOT operate reversing switch while fan blades are in motion. Fan must be
turned o and rotating blades stopped, reverse china pulled, the speed china pulled
again to start in the opposite direction.
A ceiling fan has a completely internal switching system for total operation by
way of pull chains. On a fan/light combination, three pull chains will exist: One for
light, on and o. The second is for fan speeds. This will be marked ( ) on the
fan switch housing.
1st pull will give fan High Speed
2nd pull will give fan Medium Speed
3rd pull will give fan Low Speed
4th pull will Shut Fan O
The third pull chain is for Forward/Reverse
(Note: Some models come with a
slide switch instead of a pull chain).
This setting would usually be changed twice
per year. Downdraft in summer to create a wind chill to give a cooling eect.
Updraft in winter to circulate the hot stratified air o the ceiling and back down to
the floor without creating a wind chill.
