5. Fan Assembly. (cont.)
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.
Replace vice on safety cable and adjust safety cable length by
loosening screw and nut on the safety cable vice and pulling
on the cable. Adjust slack in cable to a hands length and
secure vice by tightening screw and nut securely. [
Refer to
drawing at right.
] 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 screw and nut on the vice must be set tighter.
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. Extra cable slack can be
left in ceiling area.
