Safety Information
To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has been
turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning.
All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical
Code “ANSI/NFPA 70” and local electrical codes. Electrical
installation should be performed by a qualified licensed
electrician.
The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted
and capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 35 lb (15.9 kg)
or less. Use only UL Listed outlet boxes marked “FOR FAN
SUPPORT.”
The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 ft (2.1 m)
clearance from the trailing edge of the blades to the floor.
Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.
To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items,
be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.
Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fan
blades. A dry dust cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be suitable
for most cleaning.
After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should
be turned upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box.
The wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor
and the equipment-grounding conductor on one side of the outlet
box and ungrounded conductor on the other side of the outlet box.
All set screws must be checked and retightened where necessary
before installation.
Suitable for use with solid-state speed control (MR181B-3 only).
