WARNING

To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is

turned off at the main fuse box before hanging. (Figure 1)

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 2)

WARNING

The outlet box must be securely anchored and capable

of withstanding a load of at least 35 lbs. Hanger bracket

must seat firmly against outlet box. If the outlet box is

recessed, remove wallboard until bracket contacts box.

If bracket and/or outlet box are not securely attached,

the fan could wobble or fall.

1. Securely attach the hanger bracket to the outlet box

using the outlet box screws and washers supplied with the

outlet box (Figure 3).

NOTE: Outlet box screws pass through slotted holes of

the hanger bracket (Figure 3).

2. Pull the electric wires in the outlet box down through

the opening in the hanger bracket. If necessary, strip wire

ends. Bend wires up and out of the way.

3A. For Downrod Fan

Carefully lift the fan and seat the downrod/hanger ball

assembly on the hanger bracket that was just attached to

the outlet box (Figure 4). Be sure the groove in the ball is

lined up with tab on the hanger bracket (Figure 3).

3B. For Close-to-Ceiling Fan

Hook the motor assembly onto the ceiling bracket

assembly as shown. (Figure 5)

You can now proceed with the electrical wiring of your fan.

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.
