How to Wire Your
Ceiling Fan
If you feel that you do not have enough electrical
wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan
installed by a licensed electrician.
1. Connect the green grounding lead from the hanger
ball and the green grounding lead from the hanger
bracket to the grounding conductor of supply (this
may be a bare wire or wire with green colored insu-
lation). Securely connect wires with wire connector
supplied.
NOTE: If you are using an Emerson Light Fixture
with your fan, see Light Fixture Owner’s Manual
for wiring.
2. Securely connect the fan motor white wire to the
supply white (neutral) wire using wire connector
supplied (Figure 4). Securely connect the fan motor
black wire and blue wire to the supply black (hot)
wire using wire connector supplied (Figure 4). After
connections have been made, turn leads upward
and carefully push leads into the outlet box, with
the white and green leads on one side of the outlet
box and the black and blue leads on the other side
of the outlet box.
3. Screw the two 1-1/4” threaded studs (provided) into
the tapped holes in the hanger bracket.
4. Lift the ceiling cover up to the threaded studs and
turn until studs protrude through the holes in the
ceiling cover (Figure 5).

To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity
is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring.
NOTE: If you are not sure if the outlet box is ground-
ed, contact a licensed electrician for advice, as it
must be grounded for safe operation.
WARNING
!
Check to see that all connections are tight, including
ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire
connectors, except for the ground wire. Do not
operate fan until blades are in place. Noise and fan
damage could result.

5. Secure the ceiling cover in place by sliding lock-
washers over the threaded studs and installing the
two knurled knobs (supplied). (Figure 5.) Tighten
the knurled knobs securely until the ceiling cover
fits snugly against the ceiling and the hole in the
ceiling cover is clear of the downrod. Your fan is
now wired to be turned on and off from the fan
switch.
6. Slip the switch pull chain through the hole in the
pendant (supplied), then secure the pendant by
snapping the coupling (supplied) onto the end of
the chain.
Using Your Ceiling Fan
1. Restore electrical power to the outlet box by turning
the electricity on at the main fuse box.
2. Check the operation of the fan by gently pulling on
the pull chain switch.
3. If airflow is desired in opposite direction, turn your
fan off and wait for the blades to stop turning, then
slide the reversing switch to opposite position, and
turn fan on again. The fan blades will turn in the
opposite direction and reverse the airflow.
Your fan model is equipped with a 4-position pull
chain switch. The operating sequence is as follows:
THREE-SPEED
1st Pull—HIGH
2nd Pull—Medium
3rd Pull—Low
4th Pull—OFF

To avoid possible fire or shock, make sure that the
electrical wires are completely inside the outlet box
and not pinched between the ceiling cover and the
ceiling.
