To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has been turned oﬀ at the circuit breaker

before beginning. All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code “ANSI/NFPA

70” and local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by a licensed electrician.

The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 ft. (2.1m) clearance from the trailing edge of

the fan blades to the floor and a minimum of 1.5 ft (0.5m) from the edge of the fan blades to the

surrounding walls. Never place objects in the path of the fan blades. To avoid personal injury or

damage to the fan and other items, please be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.

To avoid electrical shock or damage to the motor or ﬁnish, do not use water or chemicals

when cleaning the fan or fan blades. A dry cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be suitable

for most cleaning.

After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should be turned upward and pushed

carefully up into the outlet box. The wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and

the equipment-grounding conductor on one side of the outlet box, and the ungrounded conductor

on the other side of the outlet box.

All set screws must be checked and re-tightened

where necessary before installation.

1. Mounting Options

CAUTION: To prevent electrical shock, ensure electricity has been

turned oﬀ at the circuit breaker before beginning.

If there isn’t an existing UL/cUL listed outlet box, please refer to the

following instructions. Secure the outlet box directly to the building

structure. Use appropriate fasteners and building materials. The

outlet box and support structure must be able to fully support the

moving weight of the fan (at least 35 lbs/15.9 kg). Do not use plastic

outlet boxes. Use only UL/cUL listed outlet boxes marked

“FOR FAN SUPPORT.”

Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure.

Use Part A if needed.

Figures 1-1C are examples of diﬀerent ways to mount the

outlet box.

NOTE: To hang your fan where there is an existing ﬁxture but no

ceiling joist, you may need an installation hanger bar.

NOTE: Downrod fans can be suspended up to a maximum

recommended length of 72” using additional downrods

(sold separately) and the included 80” lead wire.

NOTE: The sloped ceiling kit (sold separately) is required for sloped

ceiling applications, and will accommodate slopes up to 45° (Fig. 1B).

NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper blade

clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling (Fig. 1B).
