General
The SW82 control is designed to
operate multiple fans without light
kits. The SW82 is rated for 12.0
amps 120V full load. It is
recommended the SW82 shall have
a minimum load of 6.0 amps with
fans at high speed. All ceiling fans
must be completely installed
before installation of the SW82 wall
control. Your new control will
require a grounded electrical
supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz,
15 amp circuit.
Installation of
Wall Control
NOTE: Ceiling fans equipped with
built-in speed control devices must
have the speed control set to the
highest speed before installing the
SW82 wall control. Failure to set
and maintain the built-in device at
the high speed setting could result
in damage to your ceiling fan
motors.

Before disconnecting electricity to
your ceiling fans, verify that all fans
are operating at their high speed
setting.
2
Disconnect power to the ceiling
fans at the circuit breaker panel or
remove fuse from box.
