Note;

Your

has

been

carefully

manufactured,

using

the

finest

of

materials

and

craftmanship

for

long

life

and

simplicity

of

installation

and

operation.

To

insure

quiet

operation

and

full

efficiency

of

the

unit,

please

follow

the

included

instructions

carefully, observing the “caution” notes at the beginning of each step. The basic instructions cover a standard installation in a drywall

or plaster ceiling. The mounting instructions for additional wood and concrete installations are covered In an additional section following

the basic Instructions below.

STEP 1. PRE-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

A.

Select installation site. Check to make certain that in normal use no object can come in contact with the rotating fan blades.

Mounting site should also meet the pre-cautions listed in step 3 below.

B.

Installation hardware is included for a standard drywall or plaster ceiling. You will need a 4" X 1-1/2" octagon junction

box and wire nuts (2) which can be purchased from any hardware store or electrical supply house.

C.

The pipe nipple included will mount the unit so that the bottom of the fan blades will be approximately 10" from the

ceiling. If the ceiling height is over eight feet, you may wish to increase the distance to the ceiling by increasing the length of

the mounting pipe. To determine new pipe length, take desired distance from ceiling to fan blade lower edge (Dimension

"A" in Fig. 1), add 2" to it, then subtract minimum hanging dimension as req'd from chart. Discard 2" nipple supplied with

unit if longer pipe section will be used.

CAUTION: IN DETERMINING PIPE LENGTH, BE CERTAIN THAT FAN BLADES WILL REMAIN AT LEAST 7'ABOVE

FLOOR TO AVOID STRIKING TALL PERSONS OR OBJECTS. ALSO, BE CERTAIN THAT PIPE PURCHASED IS .109"

WALL MINIMUM TO PROPERLY SUPPORT FAN. PIPE MUST HAVE 3/4"-14 NPT THREAD EACH END.

STEP 2. INSPECTION OF UNIT

A.

Unpack unit carefully to avoid damage to any components.

B.

Check for any shipping damage to motor assembly and fan blades. If more than one unit is being installed, keep fan

blades in sets of four, since they are shipped as a matched set. Should one of the fan blades receive damage during shipment,

return all four blades for replacement.

C.

Check contents for assembly hardware. Make certain that a bag of parts and a canopy have been included with the unit.

STEP 3. INSTALLATION OF CEILING MOUNTING HARDWARE

CAUTION: YOUR CEILING FAN MAY WEIGH UP TO 50 LBS, SO THE FOLLOWING NORMAL

PRECAUTIONS MUST BE TAKEN TO INSURE THAT THE UNIT WILL NOT FALL FROM THE CEILING.

A.

Wood joist must be sound and

of

sufficient size to support a SOib. ioad, but in no case be smaiier than l->/

2

" X

-V

2

” (nominal 2X4 size).

B.

Edge of drilled hole must be no closer than V

2

” from edge of joist to avoid splitting wood when hook is threaded in.

C.

Use only 9/32” drill so hook will have greatest holding power without splitting wood.

D.

Do not mount directly to unsupported drywall celling or to unreinforced ceiling wiring box.

A.

The unit is designed to fit an octagon junction box surface mounted or semi-recessed into drywall or plaster ceilings as shown

in Fig. 2 and 3. Mount this junction box to the ceiling joist at desired location. Note: Fan is supported independently of

Junction box, so box will not require special mounting.

B.

Drill 9/32" hole 3" deep in center of joist. Thread hook into hole to 1" of inside of box as shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3. Use

vaseline, soap or oil to lubricate hook threads.
