3. MOUNTING OPTIONS

1. Disconnect the power by removing fuses
or turning off circuit breakers.
2. If there is an existing outlet box, ensure it
is clearly marked "Suitable for Fan Support".
If it is not so marked, it must be replaced
with an approved one.
3. Secure the outlet box (or make sure the
existing box is secured) directly to the
building structure. Use appropriate fasteners
and building materials.
4. Figures 1,2 and 3 are examples of
different ways to mount the outlet box in
different situations. A longer downrod may
be required in sloped ceiling situations to
maintain proper blade clearance.
5. To hang the fan in locations where no
ceiling joist is available, a hanger support bar
may be required (Figure 4). Quorum
distributes approved hanger support bars and
outlet boxes.
CAUTION:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, INSTALL THE PRIMARY MOUNTING MEANS AND USE ONLY THE HARDWARE
PROVIDED WITH THE FAN.

4. HANGING YOUR FAN

WARNING - Turn off the power!
DO NOT fasten the blades to the fan until it is
assembled and hanging from the ceiling. To do
so now will likely bend the blade arms and
almost certainly cause wobble.
1. If not already affixed to the hanger
bracket, place the rectangular rubber isolators
between the hanger bracket and outlet box.
Secure the hanger bracket to the outlet box
using the 2 long steel screws supplied with
the outlex box.
2. Remove the set pin and safety lock clip
from the yoke on top of the motor assembly.
Slide the downrod through the canopy. Slide
the yoke cover onto the downrod (Fig. 5).
Feed the wires from the fan motor through
the downrod assembly.
3. (Fig. 5) Attach the downrod assembly
(downrod, yoke cover and canopy) to the
motor by sliding the downrod into the yoke
on top of the motor assembly. Slide the set
pin through the hole in the yoke, downrod
and secure it with the safety lock clip.
Tighten the set screws on yoke. The yoke
cover will lower down to conceal the yoke.
Feed the wires through the downrod ball.
4. (Fig. 6) Remove glass supports on top of
motor assembly and insert glass ring. Attach
the glass supports to secure the glass ring.
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE, OR PERSONAL INJURY,
MOUNT THE FAN ONLY TO AN OUTLET MARKED ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT AND USE
MOUNTING SCREWS PROVIDED WITH THE OUTLET BOX.

6. Lift the fan motor without the blades and
place into the hanger bracket, rotating the
ball until the groove engages the tab on the
hanger bracket. This locks the ball mount
and fan motor, preventing fan rotation during
operation. (Fig. 8.)
