How to Assemble Your Ceiling Fan Blades
If your fan is to replace an existing light fixture, turn
electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and remove
the existing light fixture.
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is
turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All
wiring must be in accordance with National and
Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly
grounded as a precaution against possible
electrical shock.
Deep box with brace (Figure 3)
Paired with a deep box, this hanger is meant to span
between two joists and takes the place of wooden blocking.
To avoid fire or shock, follow all wiring instructions
carefully. Any electrical work not described in these
instructions should be done or approved by a licensed
electrician.

OUTLET BOX
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury,
mount to outlet box marked acceptable for fan support of
15.9 kg (35 lbs) or less and use mounting screws provided
with the outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly used for
the support of luminaires are not acceptable for fan support
and may need to be replaced, consult a qualified electrician
if in doubt.
Do not operate this fan with a variable (Rheostat) wall
controller or dimmer switch. Doing so could result in
damage to the ceiling fan’s remote control unit.
