6. Wiring.
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 grounded properly
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 below, please use a qualified electrician.
Once fan has been temporarily hung on the
mounting plate, electrical wiring can be made
as follows:
Connect
BLACK
and
BLUE
wires from fan to
BLACK
wire from ceiling with wire connector provided.
Connect
WHITE
wire from fan to
WHITE
wire
from ceiling with wire connector provided.
Connect
GROUND
(
GREEN
) wire from mounting
plate to
BARE
/
GREEN
wire from ceiling with wire
connector provided.
If you intend to control the fan light with a separate
light switch connect
BLUE
wire from fan to the
BLACK
(or
RED
) supply from the independent
switch.
* Wrap each wire connector separately with
electrical tape as an extra safety measure.
Lift motor assembly to mounting plate. Hang
motor assembly on j-hook, using oval hole
located on plate at top of motor assembly. This
will allow motor assembly to hang out of the
way while wiring.
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 of cable with
pliers. If the safety cable slips, the loop must be
adjusted smaller.
Extra cable slack can be left in
ceiling area.
