With the hanging bracket secured to the outlet box
and able to support the fan, you are now ready to
hang your fan. Grab the fan firmly with two hands.
Slide downrod through opening in hanging bracket
and let hanging ball rest on the hanging bracket. Turn
the hanging ball slot until it lines up with the hanging
bracket tab.
WARNING
: Failure to align slot in hanging ball with
tab in hanging bracket may result in serious injury or
death.
CAUTION
: Due to the size (circumference) of this fan,
it is advisable to seek the help of another person to
hold the stepladder in place and to then help lift the
fan up to you once you are set on the ladder.
Find a secure attachment point (wood ceiling joist
highly recommended) and secure safety cable. It will
be necessary to use a heavy duty wood screw, washer
and lock washer (not supplied) with the safety cable
loop. If necessary, adjust the loop at the end of the
safety cable. The loop at the end of the safety cable
should just fit over the threads on the wood screw.
Test safety cable by pulling on loose end of cable with
pliers. If the safety cable slips, the loop must be adjusted
tighter.
Extra cable slack can be left in ceiling area.

Codes or Ordinances and the National Electrical Code (or
Canadian Electrical Code). If you are unfamiliar with
electrical wiring or if the house/building wires are different
colors than those referred to in the diagram to the right,
please use a qualified electrician.
When downrod is secured in place on the hanging
bracket, wire the
RECEIVER
with wire connectors
provided as shown in

Tip
: While you are wiring, keep in mind that wires must
not obstruct receiver from sliding into hanging bracket.
* Wrap each wire connector separately with electrical
tape as an extra safety measure.
Gently insert receiver (flat side up) into hanging bracket
and carefully push wires and taped wire connectors
into outlet box. Let antenna rest
