Tools Required
P h i l l i p s s c r e w d r i v e r, s t r a i g h t s l o t
screwdriver, adjustable wrench, step
ladder, and wire cutters.
Mounting Options
If there isn't an existing UL listed
mounting box, then read the following
instructions. Disconnect the power by
removing fuses or turning off circuit
breakers.
Secure the outlet box directly to the
building structure. Use appropriate
fasteners and building materials. The
outlet box and its support must be able
to fully support the moving weight of the
fan (at least 50 lbs). Do not use plastic
outlet boxes.
Figures 1,2 and 3 are examples of
different ways to mount the outlet box.
Note:
You may need a longer downrod to
maintain proper blade clearance when
installing on a steep, sloped ceiling.
To hang your fan where there is an existing
fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need
an installation hanger bar as shown in
Figure 4 (available at your Hampton Bay
Retailer).
