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 wiring. 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 14).
5.	Secure the ceiling cover in place by sliding
	lockwashers over the threaded studs and installing
	the two knurled knobs (supplied). (Figure 14).
	Tighten the knurled knobs securely until the ceiling
