!WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical 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.

NOTE: The hanger bracket must be mounted flush with the ceiling in order for the ceiling cover to install properly. If necessary, use leveling washers (not supplied) between the outlet box and the hanger bracket.

2.Slide the hanger bracket onto the outlet box screws. Center the bracket over the outlet box and then securely tighten the screws (Figure 6).

!WARNING

Hanger bracket must seat firmly against outlet box. If the outlet box is recessed, use leveling washers between the hanger bracket and the outlet box until the bracket is flush with the ceiling. If bracket and/or outlet box are not securely attached, the fan could wobble or fall.
