B. Bring electrical cable into the outlet box and attach with
an approved connector. Make certain that wiring meets
all national and local electrical codes. Wire leads should
extend at least 6" beyond outlet box for ease in mak-
ing connections. See Figure 3.

Step 4: Installation of Ceiling Plate
Caution: Cover plate must be securely mounted, as it
supports the entire weight of the fan.
A. Thread the lead wires through the center hole in the
ceiling plate and attach the ceiling plate to the 2 x 4
brace supporting the outlet box. Use (2) #10
woodscrews 3" long for mounting through the outer-
most holes. Drill two pilot holes 9/64" diameter in the 2
x 4 brace for mounting screws. See Figure 4.

Step 5: Hanging of Motor
A. The motor hangs from 3 support loops mounted to the
ceiling plate. To hang motor, place one of the hooks on
the motor plate into one of the support loops. Then,
place the two remaining support loops under the two
remaining hooks. See Figures 5 and 6.
Note: Be sure the hooks are centered in the loops. See
Figure 7.
You may find it easier to make the wire connections,
shown in Step 6, while motor is hanging from one hook
as shown in Figure 5. If you do, take care not to knock
the motor off the hook.

Step 6: Final Wiring
A. Connect electrical supply leads to the leads from mo-
tor, using approved connectors. See Figure 8.
1. Connect black electrical supply lead to the black motor
lead and the black with white stripe motor lead (see
note).
2. Connect the white electrical supply lead to the white
motor lead.
3. Connect the ground wire to the green leads.
Note: If a separate wall switch will be used to control a
lighting accessory, connect the black wire with a white stripe
to the wall switch lead, following wiring instructions included
with the accessory. The wall switch must be acceptable for
use as a general-use switch.
Caution: No bare wire or wire strands should be vis-
ible after making connections.
B. After making the wire connections, the wires should
be spread apart with the white and the green wires on
one side of the outlet box, and the black and black/
white wires on the other side of the box. The splices
should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into
the outlet box.
C. Remove the three 8-32 screws from the outer edge of
the ceiling plate. Use these to attach the motor cover
to the ceiling plate. See Figure 6.
