WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
personal injury, wire connectors provided with this fan are designed
to accept only one 12 gauge house wire and two lead wires from
the fan. If your house wire is larger than 12 gauge or there is more
than one house wire to connect to the two fan lead wires, consult
an electrician for the proper size wire connectors to use.
Important:
Be sure wiring box is properly grounded or that a
ground (green or bare) wire is present.
Warning:
If house wires are different colors than referred to
in the following steps, stop immediately. A professional electrician
is recommended to determine wiring.

Test safety cable (H) by
pulling on loose end with pliers. If the safety cable (H) slips, then
vice (I) screw and nut must be set tighter.
