LAG SCREW INSTALLATION (OPTIONAL)
NOTE: This step is required only under two conditions: If the fan weighs 36 lbs. or more (which does not pertain to this fan) or if the existing ceiling fixture outlet box needs to be modified for a ceiling fan application (for example, if the house is not new construction and you are replacing an existing light fixture). We recommend that the ceiling box be of sufficient capacity to support the weight of the fan and light fixture under any conditions. If in doubt whether you need to install the lag screw, consult a qualified electrician.
Step 2 (optional). With the large washer attached, pass the lag screw (Pack A) through the center hole of the crossbar mounting bracket and screw into the guidehole. Tighten until the outlet box is mounted firmly to the beam. This box must be secured to the ceiling firmly.
