Making the electrical
connections
If you feel you do not have enough electrical wiring
knowledge or experience, have your fan installed by a
licensed electrician.
Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your
household wiring. Use the plastic wire nuts (AA) with your
fan. Secure the plastic wire nuts (AA) with electrical tape.
Make sure there are no loose strands or connections.
□
Connect the ground conductor of the 120V supply
(this may be a bare wire or a wire with green colored
insulation) to the green ground lead(s) of the fan.
When using standard ceiling mounting, there are two
green grounding leads: one from the mounting
bracket (A) and one from the hanger ball/downrod
assembly (E). When using “close-to-ceiling”
mounting, there is only one green ground lead from
the mounting bracket (A) since the hanger
ball/downrod assembly (E) is not used.
□
Connect the fan motor white wire to the supply white
(neutral) wire using a plastic wire nut (AA).
□
Connect the fan motor black wire to the supply black
(hot) wire using a plastic wire nut (AA).
WARNING:
Check to see that all connections are tight,
including ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire
nuts (except for the ground wire).
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do
not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.
WARNING:
To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure
electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring.
