If you wish to install fan in a covered patio
, secure
clip on one support cable to one opening of
support cable anchor. Repeat for remaining
support cables.
Find a secure attachment point (wood ceiling joist
highly recommended) and secure support cable. It
will be necessary to use a heavy duty wood screw,
washer and lock washer (
included in hardware pack
)
with the support cable loop. If necessary, adjust
screws on the cable turnbuckles to
shorten/lengthen the cable slack. The loop at the
end of the support cable should just fit over the
threads on the wood screw.
Test support cables by
pulling on loose end of support cable with pliers. If the
support cable slips, the loop must be adjusted
smaller.
WARNING
: Do NOT overtighten support cable;
leaving it taut may cause it to snap.
WARNING
: Support cables MUST be used if
installing fan in a covered patio.
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 (
GREEN
or Bare) wire 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 instructions, please use a qualified
electrician.
Note
:
Excess lead wire length from the fan can be cut
to the desired length and then stripped.
