6. How to Hang Your Ceiling Fan

WARNING
!
The fan must be hung with at least 7' of clearance from
floor to blades (Figure 9).
WARNING
!
The outlet box and joist must be securely mounted and
capable of supporting at least 50 lbs. Use only a U.L.
outlet box listed as "Acceptable for Fan Support of
22.7 kg. (50 lbs.) or less".
WARNING
!
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked "Acceptable for
Fan Support of 22.7 kg. (50 lbs.) or less", and use
screws supplied with outlet box. Most outlet boxes
commonly used for support of light fixtures are not
acceptable for fan support and may need to be
replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
6.1
Unscrew (but do not remove) the two mounting screws
in the outlet box (Figure 10).
Position the hanger bracket on the outlet box so that
the T-slots in the hanger bracket are aligned with the
outlet box screws.
WARNING
!
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned
off at the main fuse box before wiring. All wiring must
be in accordance with National and Local codes and
the ceiling fan must be properly grounded as a
precaution against possible electrical shock.
