MOUNTING OPTIONS
WARNING:To reduce the risk of re,electric shock,
or personal injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked"-
acceptable for fan support of 35 lbs.
(15.9kg) or less", and use the screws provided
with the outlet box. An outlet box commonly used
for the support of lighting xtures may not be acceptable for
fan support and may need to be replaced. If in doubt, consult
a quali ed electrician.
If your ceiling fan does not have an existing UL-listed mounting
box, then install one using the following instructions:
□
Disconnect the power by removing the fuses or turning off
the circuit breakers.
□
Secure the outlet box (not included) directly to the building
structure.
Use the appropriate fasteners and materials (not included).
The outlet box and its bracing must be able to fully support
the weight of the moving fan (at least 35 lbs.).
Do not use a plastic outlet box.
The illustrations below show three different ways to mount the
outlet box.

NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper
blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling.
The maximum angle allowable is 30° away from horizontal.
If the canopy touches the downrod, then remove the decora-
tive canopy bottom cover and turn the canopy 180° before
attaching the canopy to the mounting plate.
To hang your fan where there is an exisiting xture
but no ceiling joist you may need an installation hanger bar
as shown above (available at any Home Depot store).
