3. Installation Preparation.

To prevent personal injury and damage, ensure
that the hanging location allows the blades a
clearance of 7ft. (2.13m) from the floor and
30in. (76cm) from any wall or obstruction.
This fan is suitable for room sizes up to
400 square feet (37.2 square meters).
This fan can be mounted as a flushmount
on a regular (no-slope) ceiling only. Downrod
installations are not available for this fan.
Installation requires these tools:
Phillips screwdriver, flat-head screwdriver,
adjustable pliers or wrench, stepladder, wire
cutters, and rated electrical tape.

4. Hanging Bracket Installation.

Turn off circuit breakers to current fixture from breaker
panel and be sure operating light switch is turned to
the OFF position. (diagram a)
WARNING: Failure to disconnect power supply prior to
installation may result in serious injury.
Remove existing fixture.
WARNING: When using an existing outlet box, be sure
the outlet box is securely attached to the building
structure and can support the full weight of the fan.
Ensure outlet box is clearly marked "Suitable for Fan
Support." If not, it must be replaced with an approved
outlet box. Failure to do so can result in serious injury.
CAUTION: Be sure outlet box is grounded properly and
that a ground wire (GREEN or bare) is present.
Locate mounting screws on underside of mounting
plate. Remove the mounting screw located next to RED
DOT, along with the lock washer--save for later use.
Partially loosen the other 3 mounting screws.

Secure mounting plate to outlet box using original
screws, spring washers and flat washers provided with
new or original outlet box.* Pull wires from outlet box
through center hole in mounting plate. (diagram c)
*Note: It is very important that you use the proper
hardware when installing the mounting plate as this will
support the fan.
