Safety Rules - Read and Save These Instructions

To reduce the risk of electric shock, insure electricity has been turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning.

All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code

“ANSI/NFPA 70-1999” and local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.

10.

After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into 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 ungrounded conductor on the other side of the outlet box.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock or fire, do not use this fan with any solid-state fan speed control device. It will permanently damage the electronic circuitry.

11.

All set screws must be checked and retightened where necessary before installation.

WARNING

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only the screws provided with the outlet box.

The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted and capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 50 pounds. Use only UL

Listed outlet boxes marked “FOR FAN SUPPORT”.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONALL INJURY, DO NOT BEND THE

BLADE ARMS (ALSO REFERRED TO AS FLANGES), WHEN

INSTALLING THE BRACKETS, BALANCING THE BLADES OR

CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT INSERT FOREIGN OBJECTS IN –

BETWEEN ROTATING FAN BLADES.

WARNING

The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 feet clearance from the trailing edge of the blades to the floor.

Avoid placing objects in path of the blades.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR PERSONAL

INJURY, MOUNT TO OUTLET BOX MARKED "ACCEPTABLE FOR

FAN SUPPORT OF 22.7 KG (50 LBS.) OR LESS" AND USE MOUNTING

SCREWS PROVIDED WITH THE OUTLET BOX.

To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.

9.

Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fan blades. A dry dust cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be suitable for most cleaning.

Blade Balancing

The following procedure should correct most fan wobble. Check after each step.

1.

Check that all blade and blade bracket screws are secure.

2.

Most fan wobble problems are caused when blade levels are unequal.

Check this level by selecting a point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades. Measure from a point on the center of each blade to the point on the ceiling. Measure this distance as shown in Figure 14. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade.

Measurements deviation should be within 1/8˝. Run the fan for 10

Minutes.

3.

Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.

Operating Your Transmitter

1.

The receiver frequency selector is located on the top of the motor assembly plate as shown in

Fig. 17.

Installing the Battery:

Install 12V MN21/A23 battery (included), to prevent damage to transmitter, remove the battery if not used for long periods. (Figure 18) 2.

The transmitter frequency selector is located in the battery compartment as shown in Fig.17.

Each frequency selector has 4 switches, you may use any number of possible combinations but you must set each switch in the transmitter to match the same switch in the receiver.

NOTE

TO OPERATE THE REVERSE FUNCTION ON

THIS FAN, PRESS THE "REV" BUTTON WHILE

THE FAN IS RUNNING.

The " " Button: This button is used to change the direction of the rotation of the blades; forward for warm weather or reverse for warm weather.

Speed settings for warm or cool weather depend on factors such as the room size, ceiling height, number of fans, etc.

Warm weather - (Counter-Clockwise direction)

A downward air flow creates a cooling effect.(Fig.

20) This allows you to set your air conditioner on a higher setting without affecting your comfort.

Cool weather - (Clockwise direction) An upward airflow moves warm air off the ceiling area. (Fig.

21) This allows you to set your heating unit on a lower setting without affecting your comfort.

Care of Your Fan Troubleshooting

Here are some suggestions to help you maintain your fan.

PROBLEM SOLUTION

Fan will not start

Because of the fan's natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. (It is not necessary to remove fan from ceiling.)

1.

2.

3.

Check main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.

Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.

Check to make sure the dip switches from the transmitter and receiver are set to the same frequency.

Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the years. Do not use water when cleaning. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish.

The plating is sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or tarnishing. Do not use water when cleaning. This could damage the motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.

You can apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood blades for additional protection and enhanced beauty. Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.

5.

6.

7.

Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.

Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub is tight.

Make sure wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing.

Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this time.

If using an optional light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that the light bulb is also secure.

Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.

Make sure your ceiling box is secure and rubber isolator pads are used between mounting bracket and outlet box.

1.

2.

Do not connect the fan with a wall mounted variable speed control(s).

Make sure the dip switches are set correctly.

4.

There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated sealed ball bearings.

WARNING

MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX

BEFORE YOU ATTEMPY ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION,

“MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS”.
