SELECTING A LOCATION:
1. The ceiling fan must be installed in a location so that the blades are a minimum 300mm spacing from the tip of the blade, to the
nearest objects or walls.
2. The ceiling fan must be installed in a location so that the blades are a minimum 2.1m above the floor.
3. The fixing point for your ceiling fan must be capable of supporting a 45kg load. If the location does not have a solid mounting point,
you will need to install a timber support between two ceiling joists. Refer to Figure 2.
4. Many EGLO fans are designed for indoor use, though they can also be installed in appropriately covered outdoor locations. If you are
installing your fan in a covered outdoor area, you must ensure that it cannot be exposed to direct rain, water, and sunlight. Ensure
that it is located at least 1.5m from the edge of the roof/eaves. In some more tropical areas of Australia, it is suggested you increase
the distance from the fan to the edge of the roof.
FOR YOUR SAFETY:
1. Please read this manual carefully before attempting the assembly or installation of your new ceiling fan.
2. ALL electrical work should only be carried out by a suitably qualified and licenced electrical contractor. This ceiling fan MUST be
installed ONLY by a suitably qualified and licenced electrical contractor.
3. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
4. Do NOT allow children to play with this appliance, and supervise children around electrical devises at all times.
5 Before commencing any electrical work, ensure the power is disconnected and/or the mains switched off at the circuit box and ensure
all pole isolation of the power supply.
6. The fixing point for your ceiling fan must be capable of supporting a 45kg load.
7. Care needs to be taken to ensure the installation location does not allow the fan blades to come into contact with any object
or surface. There must be a minimum of 30cm clearance between the blade tip (end) and the nearest wall or object. Reduced
clearances to walls or ceilings can also reduce the amount of air your fan can move.
8. The installation must also allow for a minimum clearance of 2.1m between the floor and the bottom of the blades.
9. The fan must be earthed.
10. The fan must be connected to a mains supply only. Fans connected to alternate power systems such as Solar, Wind, Battery etc will
not be covered under the terms of this warranty.
11. Use ONLY the EGLO controller supplied with your fan. Use of non-standard or solid-state dimmer type controllers can cause inferior
performance, and permanently induce a humming noise in your fan motor which cannot be repaired, and wich will not be covered under
warranty.
12. Do NOT change the direction of your fan whilst it is spinning. ONLY change the direction after the fan blades have come to a
complete stop.
13. Do NOT insert any object into the fan blades whilst in operation, as this can cause damage to the fan, and personal injury.
14. Do NOT use ceiling fans and gas appliances in the same room at the same time.

and which are not faulty cannot be replaced or exchanged under warranty.
20. The important safeguards and instructions in this manual are not designed to cover every possible condition or circumstance. It is
understood that common sense, caution and care are factors that cannot be built into the product, those using and maintaining this
product must supply these factors.
