Electrical Requirements
If your fan is to replace an existing ceiling light fixture,
turn electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and
remove the existing light fixture.
IMPORTANT:
Your ceiling fan will not function
properly, and may be damaged, if used with any wall
dimmer switch or control other than the Emerson
Electric Fan/Light Remote Control supplied with the
fan.
Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical
supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit.
The ceiling structure must be capable of reliably
supporting at least 50 pounds.
To avoid fire or shock, follow all wiring instructions
carefully. Any electrical work not described in these
instructions should be done or approved by a
licensed electrician.
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is
turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All
wiring must be in accordance with National and
Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly
grounded as a precaution against possible electrical
shock.

!
WARNING
!
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
personal injury, mount fan to outlet box marked
“Acceptable for Fan Support of 15.9 kg (35 lbs) or
less", and use screws supplied with outlet box. Most
outlet boxes commonly used for support of light
fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may
need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if
in doubt.
WARNING
!
Your Emerson ceiling fan comes supplied with a Fan
Remote Control which consists of a wall mounted
switch which allows you to regulate your ceiling fan
speed.
Installation of Hanger Bracket
The fan must be hung with at least 7' of clearance
from floor to blades (Figure 1).

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked “Acceptable for
Fan Support of 15.9 kg (35 lbs) or less", and use screws
supplied with outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly
used for support of light fixtures are not acceptable for
fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a
qualified electrician if in doubt.
WARNING
!
Your Emerson Ceiling is designed to be installed either in the standard manner, or in the close-to-the-
ceiling manner. Using the standard method, the hanger ball/downrod assembly will suspend the fan several
inches below the ceiling cover. Using the close-to-the-ceiling method, the ceiling cover installs directly on
the fan motor housing, thus mounting the fan 3-1/2 inches closer to the ceiling than the standard methond.
In no case should the fan blades be lower than seven feet above the floor. Depending on your desire
mounting method, proceed to ‘INSTALLING HANGER BALL/DOWNROD ASSEMBLY” for standard
mounting, or to “INSTALLING CEILING COVER ON FAN MOTOR HOUSING” for close-to-the-ceiling
mounting.
