Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure.
Figures 1-1C are examples of different ways to mount the outlet box.

NOTE: To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need an installation hanger bar.
NOTE: Downrod fans can be suspended up to a maximum recommended length of 72" using additional downrods (sold separately) and the included 80" lead wire.
NOTE: The sloped ceiling kit (sold separately) is required for sloped ceiling applications, and will accommodate slopes up to 45° (Fig. 1B).
NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling (Fig. 1B).
NOTE: For wet location - ensure the individual wood beam is at least 1-inch wider than fan's canopy for mounting purposes.

Installing the Mounting Bracket

Remember to turn off power at the breaker.
Follow the steps below to hang your fan properly:

1. Disconnect power at the breaker to the fan location.
2. Remove 1 of 2 screws from the bottom of mounting bracket and save for use in Finishing the Installation section. Loosen the other screw (Fig. 2).
