personal injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked
acceptable for fan support using the screws provided with the
outlet box. An outlet box commonly used for the support of
lighting ꢀxtures may not be acceptable for fan support and
may need to be replaced. If in doubt, consult a qualiꢀed
electrician.
Hanger bar
If your ceiling fan does not have an existing UL-listed mounting
box, then install one using the following instructions:
Ƒ
Disconnect the power by removing the fuses or turning
off the circuit breakers.
Outlet box
Ƒ
Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure.
Use the appropriate fasteners and materials. The outlet
box and its bracing must be able to fully support the
weight of the moving fan (at least 35 lbs.). Do not use a
plastic outlet box.
If the canopy touches the downrod, then remove the decorative
canopy bottom cover and turn the canopy 180° before attaching
the canopy to the mounting bracket.
To hang your fan where there is an existing ꢀxture but no ceiling
joist, you may need an installation hanger bar as shown above
(available at any Home Depot store).
The illustrations below show three different ways to mount the
outlet box.

Operating Your Fan and Remote Control
Remote Control - Your fan is equipped with a remote control to operate
the speed and lights of your new ceiling fan. For more information
on how to install the remote control, see the remote control instruction
along with the remote control components.
Speed setting for warm or cool weather depends on factor such as the
room size, ceiling height, number of fans and so on.
The fan shipped from the factory with the reversing switch positioned
to circulate air downward. If airꢁow is desired in the opposite direction,
turn your fan off and wait for the blades to stop turning, then slide the
reversing switch (located in switch cup) to opposite position, and turn
fan on again. The fan blades will turn in the opposite direction and
reverse airꢁow.
1. Speed - The remote features Low, Med, Hi and Off buttons to select
the desired speed of operation and turn the fan On or Off.
2. Light - To control the light kit, the remote features a Light/Dimmer
button.
NOTE: Wait for fan to stop before reversing the direction of
blade rotation.
Warm weather - (Forward) A downward air ꢁow creates a cooling effect.
This allows you to set your air conditioner on a higher setting without
affecting your comfort.
Cool weather - (Reverse) An upward air ꢁow moves warm air off the
ceiling. This allows you to set your heating unit on a lower setting
without affecting your comfort.

Care and Cleaning
WARNING: Make sure the power is off before cleaning your fan.
Ƒ
Ƒ
Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check the support connections, brackets, and blade
attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. It is not necessary to remove fan from ceiling.
Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the years. Do not use water when cleaning, as this could damage
the motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the ꢀnish. The
plating is sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or tarnishing.
Ƒ
Ƒ
You can apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood for additional protection and enhanced beauty. Cover small scratches with a
light application of shoe polish.
You do not need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated sealed ball bearings.

Troubleshooting
Problem
Solution
The fan will not start
Ƒ
Check the main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.
Ƒ
Ƒ
Ƒ
Ƒ
Ƒ
Check the line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.
Check battery in transmitter.
Ensure you are in the normal range of 10-20 feet.
Ensure the dip switches settings are in the same on the transmitter and receiver.
Remember to turn power off power supply before checking the dip switches settings.
The fan is noisy
Ƒ
Ƒ
Ƒ
Ensure all motor housing screws are snug.
Ensure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub are tight.
Ensure the wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch
housing.
Ƒ
Ƒ
Allow a 24-hour “breaking in” period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this time.
If you are using the Ceiling Fan light kit, ensure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that
the light bulbs are also secure.
Ƒ
Ƒ
Ensure the canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.
Ensure your outlet box is secure and rubber isolator pads were used between the mounting bracket and
outlet box.
The fan wobbles
Ƒ
Ƒ
Check that all blade and blade bracket screws are secure.
Most fan wobble problems are caused when blade levels are unequal. Check this level by selecting a
point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades. Measure from a point on the center of each blade
to the point on the ceiling. Measure this distance. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for
measurement. Repeat for each blade. Any measurement deviation should be within 1/8". Run the fan for
ten minutes.
Ƒ
Use the enclosed blade balancing kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.
