1. Before you begin installing the fan,
disconnect the power by removing
fuses or turning off circuit breakers.
2. Be Cautious! Read all instructions
and safety information before
installing your new fan. Review the
accompanying assembly diagrams.
3. Make sure that all electrical
connections comply with local codes,
ordinances, or National Electrical
Codes. Hire a qualified electrician or
consult a do-it-yourself wiring
handbook if you are unfamiliar with
installing electrical wiring.
4. Make sure the installation site you
choose allows the fan blades to
rotate without any obstructions.
Allow a minimum clearance of 7
feet from the floor to the lowest edge
of the blades. Fan blades must have a

the wall.
5. If you are mounting the fan to a
ceiling outlet box, use a metal
octagonal outlet box. Secure the box
directly to the building structure. The
outlet box and its support must be
able to support the moving weight of
the fan (at least 50 lbs.). Do not use
a plastic outlet box.
6. Attach the hanger bracket using the
hardware supplied with the fan.
7. If you are mounting the fan to a
joist, make sure it is able to support
the moving weight of the fan (at least
50 lbs.).
8. After you install the fan, make sure
that all connections are secure to
prevent the fan from falling.
9. Do not insert anything into the fan
blades while fan is operating.
