SAFETY TIPS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, turn off the electricity to the fan at the main fuse box or circuit

panel before you begin the fan installation or before servicing the fan or installing accessories.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR FAN AND SAVE THESE

INSTRUCTIONS.

CAUTION: To avoid personal injury, the use of gloves may be necessary while handling fan parts with sharp edges.

Make sure all electrical connections comply with Local Codes or Ordinances, the National Electrical Code, and ANSI/NFPA

70-1999. If you are unfamiliar with electrical wiring or if the house/building wires are different colors than those referred to in the

instruction please use a qualified electrician.

Make sure you have a location selected for your fan that allows clear space for the blades to rotate and at least seven (7) feet

(2.13 meters) of clearance between the floor and the fan blade tips. The fan should be mounted so that the tips of the blades are at

least thirty (30) inches (76 centimeters) from walls or other upright structures.

The outlet box and ceiling support joist used must be securely mounted, and capable of supporting at least 50 Pounds (23

kilograms). The outlet box must be supported directly by the building structure. Make sure the electrical box that will hold the ceiling

fan is fan-rated. There should be an inscription on the box indicating it.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount to the 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

fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

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 two fan lead wires, consult an electrician for the proper size wire connectors to use.

After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box. The

wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding conductor on opposite sides of the outlet box.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire and to prevent humming noise do not use this fan with any solid state speed

control device or control fan speed with a full range dimmer switch. Using a full range dimmer switch to control fan speed will cause a

loud humming noise from fan.

Do not operate the reverse switch until fan has come to a complete stop.

Do not insert anything between the fan blades while they are rotating.

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.

WARNING: To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be cautious when working around or

cleaning the fan.

Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fan blades. A dry dust cloth or lightly dampened

cloth will be suitable for most cleaning.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only parts provided with this fan. The use of parts OTHER than those

provided with this fan will void the warranty.

NOTE: The important safety precautions and instructions appearing in the manual are not meant to cover all

possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood that common sense and caution are

necessary factors in the installation and operation of this fan.
