SAFETY TIPS.
page 3
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.
1.
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.
2. 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 instructions, please use a
qualified electrician.
3. Make sure you have a location selected for your fan that allows clear space for the blades to rotate, and at least ten (10) feet (3.05 meters) of
clearance between the floor and the fan blade tips. (
At least seven (7) feet (2.13 meters) of clearance between the floor and the fan blade tips
are needed for PRT78
ONLY
). 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.
4. The outlet box and ceiling support joist used must be securely mounted, and capable of supporting at least 50 pounds (22.68 kilograms).
The box must be supported directly by the building structure. Use only CUL (Canada) or UL (USA) listed outlet boxes marked "FOR FAN
SUPPORT."
WARNING
: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount to the outlet box marked "Acceptable for Fan Support of 22.68 kg
(50 lb) or less," and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box as well as the two bolt screws and washers included with the fan. 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 corresponding fan lead wires, consult an electrician for the proper size wire connectors to use.
5. Electrical diagrams are for reference only.
6. After installation is complete, check that all connections are absolutely secure.
7. 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 serious bodily injury, DO NOT use power tools to assemble any part of the fan, including the blades.
WARNING
: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, 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.]
8. Do not operate the reverse switch until fan has come to a complete stop. [Note: If using remote control with reverse capability, reverse fan
blade direction only when on LOW speed.]
9. Do not insert anything between the fan blades while they are rotating.
10. When operating the fan in a covered patio location, it is possible for high wind gusts to cause the fan to stop briefly. It will then emit a
warning beep for 60 seconds and restart at the same setting. If you wish to restart the fan sooner, you may push the SPEED button
during the 60-second warning beep.
WARNING
: To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the blade arms during assembly or after installation. Do not insert objects into the
path of the blades.
WARNING
: To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.
11. 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.
WARNING
:
This fan MUST be installed with the safety cable provided with the fan. Failure to use the safety cable provided may result in personal
injury, damage to the fan or damage to other property.
WARNING

ailure to use the support cables provided may result in personal
injury, damage to the fan or damage to other property.
CAUTION
