CAUTION: 

Be sure outlet box is grounded properly and that a 

ground wire (green or bare) is present. 

 

Partially loosen screws in slotted holes of canopy. 
Remove the other 2 screws (along with the star 
washers) -save for later use. Twist canopy to 
remove the hanging bracket. 

 

Install hanging bracket to outlet box using original 
screws, spring washers and flat washers provided with 
new or original outlet box. If installing on a vaulted 
ceiling, face opening of Hanging Bracket towards high 
point of ceiling. Arrange electrical wiring around the 
back of the hanging bracket and away from the hanging 
bracket opening. 

 

CAUTION: 

It is very important that you use the proper 

hardware when installing the hanging bracket as this will 
support the weight of the fan.

WARNING: Contact a qualified electrician to replace the outlet box if it is not suitable for ceiling fans

2. Secure the outlet box (or make sure the existing box is secured) directly to the building structure. Use appropriate 

fasteners and building materials. Wood joist and outlet box must be able to support a minimum of 50 pounds. 

3.  Figure 1, 2 and 3 are examples of different ways to mount the outlet box in different situations.
