SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read and understand this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate or install the product.
• Before you begin installing the fan, disconnect the power by removing fuses or turning off the circuit breakers.
• Make sure that all electrical connections comply with local codes, ordinances, the National Electrical Code, and
ANSI/NFPA 70-199. Hire a qualied electrician or consult a do-it-yourself wiring handbook if you are unfamiliar with
installing electrical wiring.
• Make sure the installation site you choose allows a minimum clearance of 7 ft. from the blades to the oor and at least
30 in. from the end of the blades to any obstruction.
• The net weight of this fan is: 17.38 lbs.
DANGER: When using an existing outlet box, make sure the outlet box is securely attached to the building structure and
can support the full weight of the fan. Failure to do this can result in serious injury or death. The stability of the outlet box
is essential in minimizing wobble and noise in the fan after installation is complete.
WARNING: To avoid personal injury, the use of gloves may be necessary while handling fan parts with sharp edges.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electric shock or personal injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked
“ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT” and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box. Most outlet boxes
commonly used for the support of lighting xtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced.
Consult a qualied electrician if in doubt. Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. The outlet box and its
support must be able to support the moving weight of the fan (at least 35 lbs.).
WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, 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 two fan lead wires, consult an electrician for the proper
size wire connectors to use.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of re or electric shock, do not use the fan with any solid-state speed-control device
or control the fan speed with a full-range dimmer switch.
