Electrical Requirements; How To Hang Your Ceiling Fan - Emerson MAUI BAY CF2000AB02 Owner's Manual

8.Reinstall the hanger ball on the downrod (Figure 5)
as follows. Route the motor leads through the hanger
ball and slide the hanger ball over the downrod.
Install the pin through the holes at the top of the
downrod and slide the hanger ball up the downrod,
aligning the ball so the pin is captured in the groove
in the top of the hanger ball. Pull the hanger ball up
tight against the pin and securely tighten the setscrew
in the hanger ball. A loose setscrew could create fan
wobble.
WARNING
!
It is critical that the pin in the hanger ball is properly
installed and the setscrew securely tightened.
Failure to verify that the pin and setscrew are
properly installed could result in the fan falling.
9. The fan comes with blue, black and white leads
that are 80" long. Before installing fan, measure up
approximately 6 to 9-inches above the ball/
downrod assembly. Cut off excess leads and strip
back insulation 1/2-inch from end of leads.

Electrical Requirements

Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical
supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit.
The outlet box must be securely anchored and
capable of withstanding a load of at least 50 pounds.
WARNING
!
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked acceptable for
fan support, 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.
If your fan is to replace an existing ceiling light fixture,
turn electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and
remove the existing light fixture.
WARNING
!
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid pos-
sible 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.
