Electrical Requirements
If your fan is to replace an existing ceiling light fixture, turn
electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and remove
the existing light fixture.
Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical
supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit.
The outlet box must be securely anchored and capable of
withstanding a load of at least 50 pounds.
2. Carefully lift the fan from the foam pad and seat
the hanger ball/downrod assembly on the hanger
bracket that was just attached to the outlet box
(Figure 8). Be sure the groove in the ball is lined up
with tab on the hanger bracket (Figure 7).
1. Securely attach the hanger bracket to the outlet
box using the two screws supplied with the outlet
box (Figure 7).
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked acceptable for
fan support, and use screws supplied with outlet
box. Mos 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
!
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is
turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All
wiring must be in accordance with National and
Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly
grounded as a precaution against possible electrical
shock.
WARNING
!
To avoid fire, or shock, follow all wiring instructions
carefully.
Any electrical work not described in these
instructions should be done or approved by a
licensed electrician.
WARNING
!
The outlet box must be securely anchored and capable
of withstanding a load of at least 50 lbs.
WARNING
!
The fan must be hung with at least 7' of clearance
from floor to blades (Figure 6).
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.
WARNING
!
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked acceptable for
fan support, 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
!
Failure to seat tab in groove could cause damage to
electrical wires and possible shock or fire hazard.
WARNING
!
To avoid possible fire or shock, do not pinch wires
between the hanger ball/downrod assembly and the
hanger bracket.
