2. Carefully lift the fan and seat the hang- er ball/downrod assembly on the hang- er bracket that was just attached to the outlet box (Figure 12). Be sure the groove in the ball is lined up with the tab on the hanger bracket (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”.
!WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury, mount fan to outlet box marked “Acceptable for Fan Support”, and use screws sup- plied 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 electri- cian if in doubt.
1. Securely attach the hanger bracket to the outlet box using the two screws supplied with the outlet box (Figure 11).
!WARNING
Failure to seat tab in groove could cause damage to electrical wires and possible shock or fire hazard.
