INSTALLING THE FAN INSTALLATION: This fan has two installation options: #1 HUGGER MOUNTING The HUGGER method is preferred if maximum headroom is required. The ceiling must be horizontal, not sloped. Blades will be approximately 8' from the ceiling. Air flow will be reduced when the fan is installed using the HUGGER method. #2 DOWNROD MOUNTING This is the recommended mounting for ceilings 8' and higher.
INSTALLING THE FAN - HUGGER STYLE INSTALLATION OPTION #1: HUGGER STYLE MOUNTING NOTE: The S hook is to be used for hugger style mounting. 1. Remove the plastic trim ring from the canopy to expose the 6 mounting holes. The downrod, ball and cotter pin will not be used for this mounting (Fig. 1). 2. Feed fan wires through the canopy and position the canopy over the mounting collar on top of the fan.
INSTALLING THE FAN - DOWNROD STYLE INSTALLATION OPTION #2: DOWNROD STYLE MOUNTING 1. Carefully support fan body (motor) in its styrofoam packing with the mounting collar (where the wires come out) facing upward. 2. Remove ball from downrod by loosening set screw in the side of the ball. Slide ball down and remove ball pin; remove ball. 3.
INSTALLING THE FAN - DOWNROD STYLE INSTALLATION OPTION #2: DOWNROD STYLE MOUNTING (CONT.) 1. Lift ball/downrod/fan into hanger bracket opening. NOTE: The tab opposite hanger bracket opening should fit in slot on ball. 2. Make wire connections, (refer to section titled "Electrical Connections"). 3. Slide canopy up and fasten to hanger bracket with 4 screws provided.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS * Be sure electricity is turned off at the main power box before wiring. 1. Four wires are connected to the fan. Black - this is the "hot" power to run fan. White - this is the "common" power to run fan and light. Blue - this is the "hot" power for light kit. Green - ground wire (on bracket or downrod). 2. If fan and light are to be connected to the same circuit, black and blue wires can both be connected to house circuit black wire.
BLADE ATTACHMENT 1. Place fiber washer on screw. Insert this assembly through the blade and start the screw into the blade arm. Repeat this procedure without tightening the screw until all 3 screws have been started into the blade arm (Fig. 1). NOTE: Fans that have painted finishes are packed with gaskets that can be used between the blade arm and blade to help prevent a clicking noise that may develop if blade screws loosen over time. 2. Tighten each screw starting with center screw. 3.
INSTALLATION OF REMOVABLE SWITCH HOUSING NOTE: Be sure the power is off before installing. 1. Loosen the 3 side screws on switch housing hub halfway. 2. If installing decorative switch housing cap, carefully remove plug in bottom of switch housing. Insert the decorative cap through the center hole in switch housing and secure with the provided nut and metal washer. 3. If installing light kit, carefully remove light kit plug in bottom of switch housing.
OPERATION Turn on the power and check operation of the fan. The fan is controlled by the use of the pull chain as follows: one pull = high speed two pulls = medium speed three pulls = low speed four pulls = off For proper functions, ensure that the chain is pulled down fully and released each time. NOTE: Leave pull chain switch in "high speed" position when using optional wall control. The slide switch on the side of the switch housing controls forward or reverse rotation.
CARE AND CLEANING Periodically it may be necessary to re-tighten blade to blade arm screws or blade arm to motor screws to prevent clicking or humming sound during operation. This is especially true in climates with broad temperature and humidity ranges. When dusting the blades, you must support the blade to prevent bending - no pressure should be applied to the blades. If you experience any flaws in the operation of your fan, please check the following points.
