Lift motor housing to mounting plate and then hang
motor housing on j-hook on underside of mounting
plate. (Use one of the
non-slotted
holes on the rim of
the motor housing to do so.) This will allow motor
housing to hang out of the way while wiring.
Tip
: Seek the help of another person to hold the
stepladder in place and to lift the fan up to you once
you are set on the ladder.
Find a secure attachment point (wood ceiling joist
highly recommended) and secure safety cable. It will
be necessary to use a heavy duty wood screw, washer
and lock washer (not supplied) with the safety cable
loop. If necessary, adjust the loop at the end of the
safety cable. The loop at the end of the safety cable
should just fit over the threads on the wood screw
.
Test safety cable by pulling on loose end of cable with
pliers. If the safety cable slips, the loop must be adjusted
smaller.
Extra cable slack can be left in ceiling area.
