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.

1. Securely attach the hanger bracket to the outlet box

using the two screws supplied with the outlet box.

(Figure 10.)

WARNING

Hanger bracket must seat firmly against outlet box. If

the outlet box is recessed, remove wall board until

bracket contacts box. If bracket and/or outlet box are

not securely attached, the fan could wobble or fall.

2. Carefully lift the fan and seat the hanger ball/

downrod assembly on the hanger bracket that was

just attached to the outlet box (Figure 11). Be sure

the groove in the ball is lined up with tab on the

hanger bracket (Figure 10).

WARNING

Failure to seat tab in groove could cause damage to

electrical wires and possible shock or fire hazard.

WARNING

To avoid possible fire or shock, do not pinch wires

between the hanger ball/downrod assembly and

hanger bracket.
