CAUTION !

1.Before attaching the ceiling fan to an outlet box with a hanger bracket, be sure that the outlet box is fastened securely to the ceiling supports.

2.Check to be sure that the outlet box is marked as “ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT”. (Marley Engineered Products Model 925 HANG-SAFETMOutlet Box is U.L. Listed for this purpose. U.S. Patent Number 4,788,383.)

3.The outlet box and ceiling support should be checked to be sure that it will support at least 50 lbs. of load.

4.Electrical connections and circuit wiring should be in accordance with the National Electrical Code and/or all local codes that may apply.

5.If you are unfamiliar with electrical circuitry, acquire the services of a qualified electrician.

6.If a light kit is to be installed to the fan, add the combined light fixture wattage to the fan wattage to determine the total wattage rating of the installation.

7.After installation, blades must be a minimum of seven (7) feet above the floor. Do not install on ceilings less than eight

(8) feet high.

8.Do not use this product in a corrosive or explosive atmosphere.

9.The important safeguards and instructions appearing in this manual are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur.

INSTALLING FAN BALL HANGER MOUNTING BRACKET

See Chart 1 for approximate weight for each model of fan. This weight factor, coupled with the slight fan gyration that can occur during operation, requires that a strong ceiling support be provided for attaching the hanger bracket supplied. Refer to Fig. 1 for installation. Secure mounting bracket accordingly.

1.Check to be sure the electrical outlet box is mounted to the ceiling securely and that it is marked “acceptable for ceiling fan support.” (Marley Engineered Products Model 925 Hang-SafeTMOutlet Box is U.L. Listed for this purpose.) If the outlet box is loose, secure it.

2.Position the slotted holes in the ball hanger bracket feet to allow the threaded bolts of the installed Model 925 Outlet Box through them. (See Fig. 1.) Thread the locknuts provided with the Marley Engineered Products Model 925 onto the threaded bolts and tighten securely. Make sure the ball hanger bracket is snugly and securely mounted to the outlet box after tightening the locknuts.

Some outlet boxes that are acceptable for fan support (other than Marley Engineered Products Model 925) use screws to fasten the fan mounting bracket to them. This type of outlet box will require following these general instructions for installation of the ball hanger bracket to the outlet box.

A.Check to be sure the outlet box is securely mounted to the ceiling and marked “acceptable for ceiling fan support.”

B.Align the slotted holes in the ball hanger bracket with the fan mounting holes in the outlet box.

C.Secure the ball hanger bracket to the outlet box using the two screws provided in the fan’s hardware bag.

CAUTION !

1.To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only the two steel screws (and lock washers) provided with the fan for mounting to the outlet box.

2.Some outlet boxes acceptable for fan support may not require the use of these screws due to the uniqueness of their design. Consult their accom- panying instruction sheet for ball hanger bracket installation instructions if the above methods do not apply.
