Electrical Requirements
Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical sup- ply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit.
The outlet box must be securely anchored and capable of withstanding a load of at least 50 pounds.
!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 supplied 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 electrician if in doubt.
If your fan is to replace an existing ceiling light fixture, turn electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and remove the existing light fixture.
!WARNING
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid pos- sible 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
To avoid fire or shock, follow all wiring instructions carefully.
Any electrical work not described in these instructions should be done or approved by a licensed electrician.
How to Hang Your Ceiling Fan
!WARNING
The fan must be hung with at least 7' of clearance from floor to blades (Figure 6).
