If your fan is to replace an existing ceiling light fixture,
turn electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and
remove the existing light fixture.
Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical
supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit.
The outlet box must be securely anchored and
capable of withstanding a load of at least 50 pounds.
To avoid fire or shock, follow all wiring instructions
carefully. Any electrical work not described in these
instructions should be done or approved by a
licensed electrician.
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is
turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All
wiring must be in accordance with National and
Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly
grounded as a precaution against possible electrical
shock.

WARNING
!
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
personal injury, mount fan to outlet box marked
“Acceptable for Fan Support of 15.9 kg. (35lbs.) oror
less”, and use screws supplied with outlet box. Most
outlet boxes commonly used for support of light
fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may
need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if
in doubt.
WARNING
!
1.
Remove the hanger ball by loosening the setscrew
in the hanger ball until the ball falls freely down the
downrod (Figure 1). Remove the clevis pin from the
downrod, then remove the hanger ball. Retain the
pin and hanger ball for reinstallation in Step 5.
2.
Loosen setscrew in motor coupling if necessary.
Separate, untwist and unkink the three 80” motor
leads. Route the motor lead wires through the
downrod. Align the clevis pin holes in the downrod
with the holes in the motor coupling. Install the
clevis pin and secure with the hairpin clip (Figure
2). The clevis pin must go through the holes in the
motor coupling and the holes in the downrod. Be
sure to push the straight leg of the hairpin clip
through the hole near the end of the clevis pin until
the curved portion of the hairpin clip snaps around
the clevis pin. The hairpin clip must be properly
installed to prevent the clevis pin from working
loose. Pull on the downrod to make sure the clevis
pin is properly installed.
It is critical that the clevis pin in the motor coupling
is properly installed and the setscrews securely
tightened. Failure to verify that the pin and setscrews
are properly installed could result in the fan falling.
