SAFETY

WARNING! Disconnect power supply before
wiring connections are made to prevent
possible electric shock or damage to
equipment.

WARNING! Do not operate any fan with a
damaged cord or plug. Do not run cord under
carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs,
runners or similar coverings. Do not route cord
under furniture or appliances. Arrange cord
away from traffic area and where it will not be
tripped over.

WARNING! Read and follow instructions
carefully. Failure to comply with instructions
could result in fire, electric shock, injury to
persons and/or damage to equipment.

WARNING! Do not use an extension cord with
this fan.

INSTALLATION

This model is manufactured with a cord and a molded
three prong electrical plug, which can be installed
directly into an electrical outlet.

NOTE: For installation to open web steel joist,
use the threaded J hook as supplied. For wood
joist construction, use J hook with lag threads
(not included). For attachment in concrete,
drill concrete anchors into the concrete, as
applicable to NEC, CEC and local regulation.

WARNING! To reduce the risk of personal
injury, do not bend the blade brackets when
installing the brackets, balancing the blades or
cleaning the fan. Do not insert foreign objects
in between rotating fan blades.

1. Prior to installation, ensure all pre-installed set screws,
cotter pins and locknuts are tight and secure.

2. Slide lower canopy (2) down to the rubber gasket to
create a tight seal. Tighten set screw.

3. Wind one nut down to bottom of J hook (3) towards
the curve. Add a lock washer and then flat washer
on top of the nut.

WARNING! Make certain crimps on safety loop
are

secure (See Figure 1). Make certain safety

cable

is attached properly to hook or structural

member.

Failure to comply with instructions
could result in personal injury and/or property
damage.

5. Drill a 1/2" pilot hole for J hook. Put J hook (3) through
pilot hole in joist. Add flat washer and then lock
washer and nut. Do not tighten completely until fan
is put in place on J hook.

NOTE: A lubricant should not be used on the
single mounting screw. Pilot hole should be
drilled no larger than the minor diameter of the
mounting screw threaded. At least 1⁄" (38mm)
of the threaded part of the mounting screw
should be secured into a structural joist to
provide secure mounting.

IMPORTANT! If a shorter downrod is required,
read steps on page 3.

6. Loosen set screw on upper canopy (4) on fan
downrod (1) and lower the canopy to make room to
place rubber grommet onto mounting J hook.

7. Tighten top nut on J hook to raise fan into proper
installation position.

WARNING! When installed properly, the blades
will hang 10' above the floor level. It is critical
that the J hook and nut adjustment are done
so that the blades will be a minimum 12" from
the ceiling. If your ceiling is less than 12', then
the hook and downrod must be recessed into
the ceiling so that the blades are mounted 10'
above the floor level to meet OSHA standards.

8. Raise upper canopy (4) up the downrod to cover
hook. Leave 1/8" gap between upper canopy (4)
and hanging surface so downrod does not move
off center, which could make fan wobble or vibrate
and transmit motor noise to ceiling surface. Tighten
set screw on upper canopy (4).

9. Attach blades (5) to motor housing (7) with blade
bolts already installed in motor housing. The blade
should be positioned below the blade arm bracket
when attaching to the motor to get proper air flow
and direction. (See Figure 2)

Figure 1

4. Drill a 5/32" pilot hole for safety hook (See Figure 1)
within a 12" radius of J hook (3) for fan. Wind one
nut down to bottom of safety hook towards the loop.
Add a lock washer and slide safety hook through
pilot hole. Slide lock washer on top side of the safety
hook and add nut. Tighten so lock washers on top
and bottom of the structure are secure.

INSTALLATION CONTINUED

CHANGING TO SHORTER DOWNROD:

1. Loosen and remove bolt, cotter pin and nut on the
fan downrod support bracket. (See Figure 1)

2. Slide upper canopy (4) and lower canopy (2) off of
the downrod (1) and over the wires and safety cable.

3. Loosen set screw and remove cotter pin at the motor
and slide the downrod (1) over the wires and safety
cable. (See Figure 3)

Cotter Pin

4. Take the shorter downrod and start to reverse steps
three to one.

6. Insert bolt through the yoke and downrod, making
certain you do not damage the wires. Once the bolt
is in place, re-insert the cotter pin and bend the
longer side backwards so it will not slide out.

7. Tighten the set screws to 10 foot/lbs. of torque.

8. Slide the lower canopy (2) over the wires, safety
cable and downrod (1) until it sits on top of the yoke,
and tighten the set screw.

9. Slide the upper canopy (4) over the wires, safety
cable and downrod, and do not tighten the set
screw.

10. Attach rubber grommet and support bracket to the
top of the downrod using bolt, cotter pin and nut.
Make certain you do not damage the wires inside
the downrod. Tighten the nut to 10 foot/lbs. of torque,
re-insert the split pin and bend the longer side
backwards so the pin will not slide out.

11. Return to the installation instructions.

NOTE: The shorter downrod, when installed
properly, is a minimum 10' above the floor level.
It is critical that the J hook and nut
are done so that the blades will be a minimum

12" from the ceiling. If your ceiling is less

than 12', then the hook and downrod must be
recessed into the ceiling so that the blades
are mounted 10' above the floor level to meet
OSHA standards.

5. Slide the shorter downrod over the wire and safety
cable and insert into yoke.

MAINTENANCE

the ceiling fan while motor is connected to the

power source.

WARNING: Do not attach foreign objects to the
blades of the ceiling fan.

WARNING: Do not use gasoline, benzene,
thinner, harsh cleaners, etc., which are
dangerous and will damage the ceiling fan.

CAUTION! If you see noticeable vibration,
wobbling or wear, the fan should be removed
from service and repaired or replaced by
a qualified maintenance technician or
electrician.

TROUBLESHOOTING

OPERATING ISSUE RECOMMENDATIONS

Fan will not start.

Fan is too fast/slow.

Fan makes noise.

a) Check fuses and circuit breakers.

b) Check wire connections to fan.

c) Check wiring connection in lower canopy.

d) Check voltage at fan connection.

a) Check voltage at fan connection.

b) Blades must be attached to motor to reduce the speed.

c) Adjust the trim set screw in fan wall control if using optional wall control.

If minimum setting is too low the fan may shut off with voltage fluctuations.
Increase minimum.

a) Check motor case to make certain all visible screws are snug.

b) Check to make certain that all blade bracket screws are tight.

c) Check for labels or wire nuts that could be rubbing.

d) All ceiling fans may have a slight motor noise known as the "60 cycle hum" when

used with solid state infinite speed controls, especially on lower speeds. This hum
will not affect the fan performance.

e) Make certain upper canopy is at least 1/8" from ceiling.

f) Allow a 30 day break-in period, which normally eliminates any residual noise other

than a), b), c), d) or e).

WARNING: Parts replacement and
troubleshooting should be performed only by
qualified personnel.

π

Fan wobbles.

CHICAGO • ATLANTA • DALLAS • LOS ANGELES • MINNEAPOLIS • NYC/PHILA • SEATTLE • MEXICO • CANADA

a) Check that all blade brackets are screwed firmly to motor case.

b) Check distance from tip of blades to ceiling. If blades get bent during installation,

you must re-adjust them so that all blades travel on same plane. Gently bend up
or down until all distances are the same.

c) Make certain upper canopy is 1/8" from ceiling.

d) Make certain that hanging hooks are secured tightly to ceiling.

e) Run fan without blade. If motor does not wobble, then motor is not defective,

but the blades may be bent.
