the fuse or switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position.
Warning! Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at
the main fuse or circuit breaker 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.
3. Carefully remove the rotary speeds knob and on/off switch knob from
the control (Refer to the diagram 1).

button with the four protrusions inserted into the groove provided on
the extrusion ribs, gently push the cover upwards so that the two pro-
trusions on top of the cover are higher than the extrusion ribs, take out
the top half of the cover and then push it downwards to make the other
two protrusions come out the extrusion ribs, take out the entire cover.

• Connect the black wire marked with "AC IN L" from the wall control to
the AC 120V HOT wire.
• Use the wire connectors provided to secure the connections
• Connect the GREEN/Ground wire from wall control to the ground
wire from wall box.
• Secure the wall control to the wall box using the two #6-32" x 3/4"
screws provided.

Adjustment Screw
HOW TO OPERATE YOUR WALL CONTROL:
1. Turn the wall control "ON" using the push button on Westinghouse Jax Fan
Wall Control. Set the fan to "High" speed and allow the fan to run for 30
minutes to normalize the motor temperature.
2. It is recommended that the fans rotate at a minimum of 60 RPM on low speed
to avoid stalling the motor. To adjust the fan RPM, locate the adjustment
screw on the control's front panel (Refer to diagram 3). With a small flat
blade screw driver, slowly turn the adjustment screw clockwise to decrease
RPM and counter-clockwise to increase RPM. Turn the adjustment screw in
small increments and allow the fan to speed up or slow down before making
the next adjustment.
3. Turn the fan(s) off using the Westinghouse Jax Fan Wall Control ON/OFF button.
4. Turn the control knob to the High position and depress the ON/OFF button
and release. Adjust the fans speed to the desired comfort level by rotating
between the low and high positions. To turn the fans off, depress ON/OFF
button and release.
5. NOTE: Turning the speed control knob to high speed during start-up will
assist starting the fans and avoid stalling conditions.
6. The Westinghouse Jax fan wall control is designed to operate multiple fans
without light kits. The Westinghouse Jax fan wall contorl is rated for 8.0
amps 120V full load. It is recommended the Westinghouse Jax fan wall
control shall have a minimum load of 4.0 amps with fans at high speed.
All ceiling fans must be completely installed before installation of the
Westinghouse Jax wall control. Your new control will require a grounded
electrical supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz,15amp circuit.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock or damage the fan
do not use this wall control together with any other additional
solid state fan speed control device, or variable speed control.
