4. How to Hang Your Ceiling Fan
(Continued)
To avoid possible fire or shock, do not pinch wires
between the hanger ball/downrod assembly and
hanger bracket.
WARNING
!
Failure to seat the anti-rotation tab into the hanger ball
groove could cause damage to electrical wires and
possible shock or fire hazard.
WARNING
!
The outlet box and joist must be securely mounted and
capable of supporting at least 50 lbs. Use only a U.L.
outlet box listed as “Acceptable for Fan Support of
22.7 kg. (50 lbs.) or less”.
WARNING
!
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked “Acceptable
for Fan Support of 22.7 kg. (50 lbs.) or less”, and
use screws supplied with outlet box. Most outlet
boxes commonly used for support of light fixtures
are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be
replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
WARNING
!
Hanger bracket must seat firmly against outlet box.
If the outlet box is recessed, remove wall board until
bracket contacts box. If bracket and/or outlet box are
not securely attached, the fan could wobble or fall.
