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.
Tip
: Seek the help of another person to hold the
stepladder in place and to 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 with pliers on loose end of safety cable . If the
safety cable slips, the loop must be adjusted smaller.
Extra
cable slack can be left in ceiling area.
WARNING
: Turn off circuit breakers to current fixture
from breaker panel and be sure switch is turned to the
OFF position.
CAUTION
:
Be sure outlet box is properly grounded and
that a ground wire (
GREEN
or Bare) is present.
Make sure all electrical connections comply with Local
Codes or Ordinances and the National 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.
Note
:
Excess lead wire length from the fan can be cut to
the desired length and then stripped.
When downrod is secured in place on the hanging
bracket,
wire the RECEIVER
with wire connectors
provided
as shown in diagram at right.
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 taped wire connectors into outlet
box. Allow antenna from remote control receiver to
hang
outside
of hanging bracket.
