How to Wire Your Ceiling Fan

If you feel that you do not have enough electrical wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan installed by a licensed electrician.

! WARNING

To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before attempting installation.

NOTE: If you are not sure if the outlet box is grounded, contact a licensed electrician for advice, as it must be grounded for safe operation.

1.Connect the green grounding lead from the hanger ball and the green grounding lead from the hanger bracket to the grounding conductor of supply (this may be a bare wire or wire with green colored insulation). Securely connect wires with wire connectors supplied.

! WARNING

Check to see that all connections are tight, including ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire connectors, except for the ground wire. Do not operate fan until blades are in place. Noise and fan damage could result.

3.

Screw the two threaded studs (supplied) into the

 

tapped holes in the hanger bracket.

4.

Lift the ceiling cover up to the threaded studs and

 

turn until studs protrude through the holes in the

 

ceiling cover (Figure 15).

5.

Secure the ceiling cover in place by sliding

 

lockwashers over the threaded studs and installing

 

the two knurled knobs (supplied). (Figure 15).

 

Tighten the knurled knobs securely until the ceiling
