6. Wiring.
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 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
with pliers. If the safety cable slips, the loop must be
adjusted tighter.
Extra cable slack can be left in ceiling
area.
