How to Hang Your Ceiling Fan
1.
Securely attach the ceiling support cable to the ceiling
joist or structural member using the
⅜
˝ x 2˝ lag bolt and
fl at washer. The lag bolt will pass through the fl at washer,
loop of the ceiling support cable, the outlet box and into
the supporting member (Figure 2). You will fi rst drill a ¼˝
pilot hole into the supporting member to prevent splitting
or cracking.
2.
Securely attach the hanger bracket to ceiling junction
box
acceptable for ceiling support.
NOTE:
Ceiling support cable cannot be secured to
junction box only, it must be directly secured to ceiling
joist or structural member
using the
⅜
˝ x 2˝ lag bolt and
fl at washer.
(Figure 2).

3.
Make sure the electrical supply wires, including the
hanger bracket grounding wire and safety cable are
pulled through the downrod, between the hanger bracket
and the junction box so that electrical connections can be
made later.
4.
Carefully lift the fan and seat the downrod/hanger ball
assembly on the hanger bracket that was just attached to
the ceiling joist. Be sure the groove in the ball is lined up
with tab on the hanger bracket. (Figure 3)
5.
Attach the safety cable to ceiling support cable. Slide
cable clamp onto safety cable (from fan). Place the end
of cable through the loop of ceiling support cable. Pull as
much cable through loop as possible. Feed end of cable
into clamp hole and fi rmly tighten screw (Figure 3). Cut
off excess safety cable.
INSTALLATION NOTE
If you are installing your ceiling fan on a sloped ceiling,
the hanger bracket must be mounted with the opening
parallel to the slope.
INSTALLATION NOTE
Be sure that the safety cable (along with the electrical
supply wires) is pulled through the downrod when
installing the downrod.
▲
WARNING
Failure to seat tab in groove could cause damage to
electrical wires and possible shock or fire hazard.
▲
WARNING
To avoid possible shock, do not pinch wires between the
downrod/hanger ball assembly and the hanger bracket.
▲
WARNING
The fan must be hung with at least 7´ of clearance from
floor to blade (Figure 1)
▲
WARNING
To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is
turned off at the main fuse box before hanging.
NOTE: If you are not sure if the outlet box is grounded,
contact a licensed electrician for advice, as it must be
grounded for safe operation.
