CONGRATULATIONS, as you have just chosen a quality ceiling fan.
The information contained in the following pages has been prepared to ensure you of trouble-free operation of your
ceiling fan.
1.
To ensure the success of the installation be sure to read the instructions and study the diagrams thoroughly.
2.
For your safety, all electrical connection and disconnection must be performed by a licensed electrician.
3.
All electrical work should only be undertaken after disconnection of the power by removing fuses or turning off
the circuit breaker to ensure all pole isolation of the electrical supply. If you are in any doubt the services of a
qualified electrician should be sought to ensure that all work is carried out in accordance with the local
regulations, current good practice and other national and local electrical codes.
4.
Make sure that your installation location will not allow the rotating fan blades to come into contact with any
object and that there is a minimum clearance of 30cm from the blade tip to the wall or nearest object. Please
note that the bigger this clearance is the better the airflow from your fan will be. Ensure the blades are mounted
at a minimum height of 2.1 meters from the floor when the fan is installed.
5.
The fixing point for the fan must be able to support a weight of at least 30kg. If you are mounting the fan to a
ceilin
g junction box, the box and it’s fixing must be able to support the moving weight of the fan and must not
twist or work loose.
6.
The fan must be earthed.
7.
Do not connect the fan motor to a dimmer switch. This may give an unsatisfactory performance (motor hum)
and cause damage to the motor. Only use the supplied wall controller.
8.
It is not recommended that ceiling fans and gas appliances be operated in the same room at the same time.
9.
The fan must be turned off and stopped completely before reversing the fan direction. This will prevent any
damage to the motor of the unit or controller (if installed).
10. Do not insert anything into the fan blades while the fan is operating, as this may cause person injury, damage
the blades, and upset the balance of the unit causing the unit to wobble.
11. After the fan is completely installed make sure that all connections are secured and tightened to prevent any
problems.
12. Because of the fans natural movement, some connections may loosen. Check the support connections,
brackets and blade attachments twice a year to make sure they are all secured. If they are loose, tighten with a
screwdriver.
Note: The important safeguards and instructions given in this manual are not meant to cover all possible conditions
and situations that may occur. It must be understood that common sense, caution and care are factors, which
cannot be built into any product. The persons caring for and using the unit must supply these factors.
For installation advice, or in the unlikely event of damaged or missing parts please consult a licensed electrician.
