WARNING

To avoid possible fire or 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)

CAUTION

Do not connect fan blades until the fan is completely

installed. Hanging fan with blades connected may

result in damage to the fan blades.

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.

Securely attach the hanger bracket to the outlet box

using the #8-32 outlet box screws and washers

supplied with the fan. (Figure 3)

NOTE: Outlet box screws pass through slotted holes of

the hanger bracket. (Figure 3)

Pull the electric wires in the outlet box down through

the opening in the hanger bracket and bend wires up

and out of the way so that the hanger ball will easily fit

into the hanger bracket.

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)

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.
