How to Hang Your Ceiling Fan
! WARNING
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All wiring must be in accordance with National and Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly grounded as a precaution against possible electrical shock.
! WARNING
The fan must be hung with at least 7' of clearance from floor to blades (Figure 11).
! 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”.
1.Securely attach the hanger bracket to the outlet box using the two screws supplied with the outlet box. (Figure 12).
! 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 13). Be sure the groove in the ball is lined up with tab on the hanger bracket (Figure 12).
! 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.
