Installing Your Fan 3 - HAMPTON BAY Lyndhurst Owner's Manual

Tools Required
Phillips screw driver, straight slot screw
driver, adjustable wrench, step ladder, and
wire cutters.
Mounting Options
If there isn't an existing electrical box, then
read the following instructions. Disconnect
the power by removing fuses or turning off
circuit breakers.
Secure the electrical box directly to the build-
ing structure. Use appropriate fasteners and
building materials. The electrical box and
its support must be able to fully support the
moving weight of the fan (at least 35 lbs.)
Do not use plastic electrical boxes.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT FAN
ONLY TO AN ELECTRICAL BOX MARKED
ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT AND USE
THE MOUNTING SCREWS PROVIDED WITH
THE ELECTRICAL BOX. ELECTRICAL BOXES
COMMONLY USED FOR THE SUPPORT OF
LIGHTING FIXTURES MAY NOT BE ACCEPT-
ABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT AND MAY NEED TO
BE REPLACED. CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELEC-
TRICIAN IF IN DOUBT.
Figures 1, 2, and 3 are examples of different
ways to mount the electrical box.
Note: You may need a longer downrod to
maintain proper blade clearance when install-
ing on a steep, sloped ceiling. The maximum
angle allowable is 30˚. If the canopy touches
downrod, remove the decorative canopy
bottom cover and turn the canopy 180˚ before

attaching the canopy to the mounting bracket.
To hang your fan where there is an existing
fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need an

installation hanger bar as shown in Figure 4
(available at your Hampton Bay retailer).
