LAG SCREW INSTALLATION (OPTIONAL)
NOTE: This step is required only under two condi- |
|
tions: 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 | lag |
qualified electrician. | |
