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 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.
