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.
WARNING
The fan must be hung with at least 7´ of clearance from
floor to blades (Figure 1)
WARNING
The outlet box must be securely anchored and capable
of withstanding a load of at least 50 lbs. Hanger bracket
must seat fi rmly against outlet box. If the outlet box is
recessed, remove wallboard until bracket contacts box.
If bracket and/or outlet box are not securely attached,
the fan could wobble or fall.
CAUTION
Do not connect fan blades until the fan is completely
installed. Hanging fan with blades connected may
result in damage to the fan blades.
1.
Securely attach the hanger bracket to the outlet box
using the outlet box screws and washers supplied with
the outlet box. (Figure 2)
NOTE:
Outlet box screws pass through slotted holes
of the hanger bracket. (Figure 2)
2.
Pull the electric wires in the outlet box down
through the opening in the hanger bracket and bend
wires up and out of the way so that the hanger ball will
easily fit into the hanger bracket.
3.
Carefully lift the fan and seat the downrod/hanger
ball assembly onto the hanger bracket that was just
attached to the outlet box (Figure 3). Be sure the
groove in the ball is lined up with tab on the hanger
bracket. (Figure 2)
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 hanger ball assembly and the hanger bracket.
