Helpful Tools (not included): AC Tester Light, Tape Measure, Do-It-Yourself Wiring Handbook and Wire Cutters

Initial Installation

1. Turn off circuit breakers and wall switch to the fan supply line leads.
   DANGER: Failure to disconnect power supply prior to installation may result in serious injury or death.
2. Determine mounting method to use.
   IMPORTANT: If using the angle mount, check to make sure the ceiling angle is not steeper than 18°.
   Helpful Hint: Downrod-style mounting is best suited for ceilings 8 ft. or higher. For taller ceilings you may want to use a longer downrod (not included). Angle-style mounting is best suited for angled or vaulted ceilings. A longer downrod is sometimes necessary to ensure proper blade clearance. Closemount mounting is more suitable for ceilings lower than 8 ft. high.
3. Check to make sure blades (I) will be at least 30 in. from any obstruction. Check downrod (B) length to ensure blades (I) are at least 7 ft. above the floor. [Fig. 3]
4. Secure mounting bracket (C) to outlet box (not included) using screws, spring washers and flat washers provided with the outlet box.
   NOTE: It is very important you use the proper hardware when installing the mounting bracket (C) as this will support the fan.
   IMPORTANT: If using the angle mount, make sure open end of mounting bracket (C) is installed facing the higher point of the ceiling, and ensure the ceiling angle is not steeper than 18°.

Assembly-Hanging The Fan

1. Remove the hanger ball (A) from the downrod (B) by loosening the hanger ball set screw, and removing the cross pin, then sliding the hanger ball (A) off of the downrod (B).
   Loosen the two set screws from the fan motor assembly coupling, Remove the hitch pin and lock pin from the fan motor assembly (G).
   Carefully feed the fan wires up through the downrod (B). Thread the downrod (B) into the fan motor assembly (G) coupling. Line up the holes and replace the lock pin and the hitch pin. Tighten the set screws.
2. Slip the coupling cover (F), canopy cover (E), and canopy (D) onto the downrod.
   Carefully reinstall the hanger ball (A) onto the downrod, and ensure that the cross pin is in the correct position, the set screws are tight, and the wires are not twisted.
3. Hanging the fan motor assembly to the mounting bracket.
   Lift the fan motor assembly (G) into position, and place the hanger ball (A) into the mounting bracket (C). Rotate the fan motor assembly (G) until the check groove drops into the registration slot and seats firmly. The downrod should not rotate if this is done correctly.

Assembly-Making The Electrical Connection

1. Depending on the length of downrod you use, you may need to cut the lead wires back to simplify the wiring. If you decide to cut back the lead wires, it is suggested you do so in the following manner:
   Take the lead wires and make sure you have pulled them all the way through the top of the downrod. Start at the TOP of the hanging ball on the downrod and measure 8 in. of lead wire, and then cut the excess wire off with wire cutters (not included).
   NOTE: If you do not cut back the lead wires, Steps 1 and 2 are not necessary and you may proceed to Step 3 instead.
2. If you cut back the lead wires in Step 1, strip 1/2 in. of insulation from end of each wire -- WHITE, BLACK, and BLUE. Twist stripped ends of each strand of wire within the insulation with pliers (not included).

WARNING: 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.

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

WARNING: If house wires are different colors than referred to in the following steps, stop immediately. A professional electrician is recommended to determine wiring.

WARNING: Using a full range dimmer switch (not included) to control fan speed will cause a loud humming noise from fan. To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do NOT use a full range dimmer switch to control fan speed.
