▲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

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury,

mount to outlet box marked acceptable for fan support of

15.9 kg (35 lbs) or less and use mounting screws provided

with the outlet box and/or support directly from building

structure. Most outlet boxes commonly used for the

support of luminaires are not acceptable for fan support

and may need to be replaced, consult a qualified

electrician if in doubt.

1. Using the 3/8˝ x 2˝ lag bolt and flat washer, attach

safety cable to ceiling joist or wood structural member.

The lag bolt will pass through the flat washer, safety

cable loop, and into the building structure (Figure 2). You

will first drill a ¼˝ pilot hole into the building structure to

prevent splitting or cracking.

2. Using two #8-32 screws, mount the hanger bracket to

ceiling junction box acceptable for ceiling support.

NOTE: Ceiling support cable must be fastened between

flat washer and ceiling member (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 firmly tighten screw (Figure 3). Cut

off excess safety cable.

▲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.
