1. SAFETY RULES

Model #27603-xx: 24.42 lbs

1. To avoid possible electric shock, turn
off the electricity at the main fuse box or

circuit panel before you begin the fan
installation or before servicing the fan or
installing accessories.

2. Read all instructions and safety
information carefully before installing
your fan and save these instructions.

3. Make sure all electrical connections
comply with local codes or ordinances as
well as the National Electrical Code. If
you are unfamiliar with electric wiring,
please use a qualified and licensed
electrician.

4. Make sure you have a location
selected for your fan which allows clear
space for the blades to rotate, and at lease
seven (7) feet of clearance between the
floor and the fan blade tips.

5. The outlet box and ceiling support
joist used must be securely mounted, and
capable of supporting at least 50 pounds.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,
or personal injury, use only an outlet box
clearly labeled "Acceptable For Fan

Support".

6. To reduce the risk of personal injury

use only approved hanging brackets and
screws supplied with the outlet box for
mounting to the outlet box.

7. After installation is complete, check
that all connections are absolutely secure.

8. Do not insert anything into the fan
blades while they are rotating.

9. Do not operate the reverse switch until
the fan has come to a complete stop.

10. Do not attempt to control the
operation of the fan (or an optional light
kit) from any wall control that is not
approved by Quorum for use with its fans.
Do not use solid state wall controls. The
use of any unapproved control voids the
fan's warranty.
