Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical

supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit. The

outlet box must be securely anchored and capable of

withstanding a load of at least 22.7 kgs (50 lbs). Figure 1

depicts different structural configurations that may be used

for mounting the outlet box.

▲WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal

injury, mount fan to outlet box marked acceptable

for fan support of 22.7 kg (50 lbs) or less. Use screws

supplied with outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly

used for support of light fixtures are not acceptable for

fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a

qualified electrician if in doubt.

If your fan is to replace an existing light fixture, turn

electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and remove

the existing light fixture.

off at the main fuse 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.

bag(s) packed in the packing.

in the Hanger Ball until the ball falls freely down the

Downrod. (Figure 1) Remove the Pin from the Downrod,

wires. Separate and untwist the wires. Route the wires

through the Downrod.

NOTE: You will be using either the 6˝ downrod supplied with

your fan or an optional downrod purchased seperately.

ease of assembly.

5. Loosen the two setscrews in the Downrod Support. Align

the Clevis Pin holes in the Downrod with the holes in the

Downrod Support. Install the Clevis Pin and secure with

leg of the hairpin clip through the hole near the end of the

clevis pin until the curved portion of the hairpin clip snaps

around the clevis pin. The hairpin clip must be properly

installed to prevent the clevis pin from working loose. Pull
