4-1. Raise the fan and align the slots in the canopy with the hooks on the
ceiling plate.
Note:
To hang the fan, you must tilt the canopy to an almost vertical
position so that the canopy slots sit on the ceiling plate hooks.
All wiring must be in accordance with national and local electrical
codes and ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are unfamiliar with wiring, use a
qualified electrician.
Wall switches are not included. Select an acceptable general-use switch in
accordance with national and local electrical codes.
4-2. Make sure the power to the outlet box and associated wall switch
location is still OFF.
To connect the wires, hold the bare metal leads together and place a
wire connector over them, then twist the wire connector clockwise
until tight.
CAUTION:
Be sure no bare wire or wire strands are visible after
making connections.

ground wire from the ceiling plate and the green ground wire
from the fan

• The black wire from the ceiling to the black and the black/white
wire from the fan

ground wire from the pipe ball assembly
