6. Wiring.
CAUTION
:
Be sure outlet box is properly
grounded 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.
When fan is secured in place on the hanging
bracket, electrical wiring can be made
as
follows:
Connect
BLACK
wire 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 all
GROUND
(
GREEN
) wires together
from fan to
BARE
/
GREEN
wire from ceiling with
wire connector provided.
Since this fan does not come with a light kit,
you will need to cap off the
BLUE
wire with a
wire connector (
as shown with arrow in diagram
at right
). [
Note
: If you elect to purchase a light
kit for the fan, the
BLUE
wire from the fan must
be connected to the
BLACK
wire from the
ceiling instead.]
* Wrap each wire connector separately with
electrical tape as an extra safety measure.
Lift motor assembly to hanging bracket and slide slot
at one end of motor assembly over j-hook on
hanging bracket. 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.
Extra cable slack can be left in ceiling area.
