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