1.  High voltage and moving parts around motors and motor driven equipment can cause 

serious or fatal injuries.  Always disconnect power source at main switch before wiring, 

servicing or cleaning unit. Do not rely on fan control device to prevent unexpected 

start-up or electrical shock. In addition, power supply must have fuses or circuit 

breakers for short circuit protection.

2.  All electrical wiring must conform to national and local electrical codes such as: NEC, 

OSHA, etc.

3.  Fan should be secure in its electrical grounding to avoid possible electrical shock.
4.  Fan should not be used in any wet or hazardous location defined by article 500 of the 

NEC. In addition, its ambient temperature should not exceed 104 degrees Fahrenheit.

5.   Power supply should conform to voltage rating of 120V.
6.  Before applying power, visually re-inspect the installation. Make sure that all guards 

and protective devices are securely in place and all visible screws and bolts are 

tightened.

7.  

Warning:

 To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or other personal injury, mount fan 

only on an outlet box or supporting system marked acceptable for fan support of 35 lbs 

(15.9 kg) or less and use mounting screws provided with the outlet box. Most outlet 

boxes commonly used for the support of lighting fixtures are not acceptable for fan 

support and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

8.  

Caution:

 to reduce the risk of injury to persons, install fan so that bottom edges of fan 

blades are to be:

     **In Canada, to satisfy CSA requirements: at least 8.3 Ft/2.5 M above the floor and all 

objects in room if safety cages are utilized.  10.0 Ft if safety cages are not utilized. 

     **In the US, to satisfy UL requirements: at least 7.0 Ft above the floor and all objects in 

room if safety cages are utilized. 10.0 Ft. if safety cages are not utilized.

9.  To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend blades or any other part of fan when 

cleaning. Do not insert foreign objects in between rotating fan blades or in space 

surrounding entire rotating fan unit.  Fan must be turned off at power at supply source 

before installation, cleaning or servicing.

10. Instructions for Supply Connections: Conductor of a fan identified as grounded 

conductor to be connected to a grounded conductor of a power supply, conductor of 

fan identified as ungrounded conductor to be connected to an ungrounded conductor 

of a power supply, conductor of fan identified for equipment grounding to be connected 

to an equipment-grounding conductor. After making the wire connections in junction 

box, the splices should be turned upward and pushed carefully into the outlet box. The 

wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and the fan-grounding 

conductor on one side of the junction box and the ungrounded conductor on the other 

side of the outlet box. Be sure that all wiring connections are properly insulated from 

each other and any surrounding metal parts.  For safety and best operating results, we 

recommend that you have a qualified electrician assemble and install your fan.
