1. Attach the appropriate J-hook to the building structure
member.
On Steel Beam - Locate and drill a 13/32” diameter hole
in the beam. (See Figure 5.) Use a flat washer, lock
washer and nut on both sides of the beam. Position the
J-hook so that the hook extends 2-1/2” out of outlet box.
Securely tighten both nuts.
CAUTION: If pilot hole is used with the wood thread
hook, the pilot hole should be drilled no larger than the
minor diameter of the screw threads on the hook (1/4”
max.). Do not put a lubricant on the J-hook. At least
1-1/2” of the screw threads should be secured into the
structural wood joist. When the threaded bolt hook is
used, be careful to securely tighten with supplied
lockwashers and nuts.
On Wood Joist - Locate and drill a pilot hole in the wood
joist. Install the screw-type J-hook so that hook extends
2-1/2” below the outlet box. (See Figure 6.)
2. Lift the fan onto the J-hook and position as shown in
Figure 7. Make sure the motor wires and safety cable at
the top of the hanger pipe are positioned behind J-hook
as illustrated in Figure 7.
CAUTION: The safety cable must not be placed between
the rubber roller and the hook, but rather as illustrated
in Figure 7.
3. This fan is equipped with the new required "secondary
support" cable. This cable must be affixed to the building
structure and securely clamped in such a manner to
support the weight of the fan in the event the mounting
hook or other parts fail. After wrapping cable around or to
a structural member that will support 300 pounds, secure
cable with supplied cable clamps as illustrated in Figure 8.
NOTE: Leave approximately 3" but no more than 5" of
slack on this safety cable to allow for possible fan
movement. Do not exceed more than 5" total slack.
CAUTION: It is important to note the proper installation
position of the cable clamps as illustrated in Figure 8.
To obtain maximum holding power, install U-bolt
section of clip on dead or short end of cable and saddle
on long end of cable. Improper installation reduces the
efficiency of the connection by as much as 40 percent.
Wiring Your Heat Fan
NOTE: If you feel that you do not have enough electrical
wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan installed
by a licensed electrician.
1. Connect the green grounding wire from the fan motor to
the green grounding wire from the supply source.
Securely connect wires with wire connectors supplied.
(See Figure 9.)
CAUTION: Use larger U.L. listed wire connectors if
supply source wires are larger than #12 AWG.
2. Securely connect the fan motor white wire to the supply
white (neutral) wire using a wire connector supplied
(Figure 9). Securely connect the fan motor black wire to
the supply black (hot) wire using wire connector
supplied. After connections have been made, turn leads
upward and carefully push leads into the outlet box, with
the white and green leads on one side of the outlet box
and the black leads on the other side of the outlet box.

WARNING
WARNING
TO AVOID POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL SHOCK, BE SURE
ELECTRICITY IS TURNED OFF AT THE MAIN SERVICE
BOX BEFORE WIRING.
NOTE: IF YOU ARE NOT SURE IF THE OUTLET BOX IS
GROUNDED, CONTACT A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN
FOR ADVICE, AS IT MUST BE GROUNDED FOR SAFE
OPERATION.
READ AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH INSTRUCTIONS COULD
RESULT IN THE RISK OF FIRE, FAN FALLING AND
