1.
Disconnect the power by removing fuses
or turning off circuit breakers.
2.
If there is an existing outlet box, ensure it
is clearly marked "Suitable for Fan Support".
If it is not so marked, it must be replaced with
an approved one.
3.
Secure the outlet box (or make sure the
existing box is secured) directly to the building
structure. Use appropriate fasteners and building
materials.
4.
Figures 1,2 and 3 are examples of different
ways to mount the outlet box in different
situations. A longer downrod may be required
in sloped ceiling situations to maintain proper
blade clearance.
5.
To hang the fan in locations where no
ceiling joist is available, a hanger support bar
may be required (Figure 4). Contact your local
dealer for support bars and outlet boxes.
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE, OR PERSONAL INJURY,
MOUNT THE FAN ONLY TO AN OUTLET MARKED ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT AND
USE MOUNTING SCREWS PROVIDED WITH THE OUTLET BOX.
CAUTION:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, INSTALL THE PRIMARY MOUNTING MEANS AND USE ONLY THE HARDWARE
PROVIDED WITH THE FAN.

WARNING -
Turn off the power!
DO NOT fasten the blades to the fan until it is
assembled and hanging from the ceiling. To do
so now will likely bend the blade arms and
almost certainly cause wobble.
1.
If not already affixed to the hanger
bracket, place the rectangular rubber isolators
between the hanger bracket and outlet box.
Secure the hanger bracket to the outlet box
using the 2 long steel screws supplied with
the outlex box.
2.
Remove the set pin and safety lock clip
from the yoke on top of the motor assembly.
Slide the downrod through the canopy and
canopy cover (Fig. 5). Feed the wires from
the fan motor through the downrod assembly.
3.
(Fig. 6) Attach the downrod assembly
(downrod and canopy and canopy cover) to
the motor by sliding the downrod into the
yoke on top of the motor assembly. Slide the
set pin through the hole in the yoke, downrod
and secure it with the safety lock clip.
Tighten the set screws on yoke. Feed the
wires through the downrod ball.
4.
Lift the fan motor without the blades and
place into the hanger bracket, rotating the
ball until the groove engages the tab on the
hanger bracket. This locks the ball mount
and fan motor, preventing fan rotation during
operation. (Fig. 7)
5. Secure the safety cable to the building
structure using a wood screw (not included).
