Installing Your Fan

ladder and wire cutters.
Mounting Options

then read the following instructions. Disconnect
the power by removing fuses or turning off circuit
breakers.
Secure the outlet box directly to the building
structure. Use appropriate fasteners and building
materials. The outlet box and its support must be
able to fully support the moving weight of the fan
(at least 35 lbs). Do not use plastic outlet boxes.

Note: You may need a longer downrod to maintain
proper blade clearance when installing on a steep,
sloped ceiling. The maximum angle allowable is
18 ° . If the canopy touches downrod, remove the
decorative canopy bottom cover and turn the

canopy 180 ° before attaching the canopy to the
mounting plate.
To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture
but no ceiling joist, you may need an installation
