5. Fan Assembly. (cont.)
With the hanging bracket secured to the outlet box and
able to support the fan, you are now ready to hang your
fan. Grab the fan firmly with two hands. Slide downrod
through opening in hanging bracket and let hanging
ball rest on the hanging bracket. Turn the hanging ball
slot until it lines up with the hanging bracket tab.
WARNING: Failure to align slot in hanging ball with tab
in hanging bracket may result in serious injury or death.
Tip: Seek the help of another person to hold the
stepladder in place and to lift the fan up to you once
you are set on the ladder.
Find a secure attachment point (wood ceiling joist
highly recommended) and secure safety cable. It will be
necessary to use a heavy duty wood screw, washer and
lock washer (not supplied) with the safety cable loop. If
necessary, adjust the loop at the end of the safety cable.
The loop at the end of the safety cable should just fit
over the threads on the wood screw. Test safety cable by
pulling on loose end with pliers. If the safety cable slips, the
loop must be adjusted tighter. Extra cable slack can be
left in ceiling area.
6. Wiring.
WARNING: Turn off circuit breakers to current fixture
from breaker panel and be sure operating light switch is
turned to the OFF position.
CAUTION: Be sure outlet box is properly grounded and that
a ground wire (GREEN or Bare) is present.
Make sure all electrical connections comply with Local
Codes or Ordinances and the National Electrical Code. If you
are unfamiliar with electrical wiring or if the house/building
wires are different colors than those referred to in the
instructions below, please use a qualified electrician.
Note: Excess lead wire length from the fan can be cut to the
desired length and then stripped.
When fan is secured in place on the hanging bracket,
electrical wiring can be made as follows:
Connect BLACK and BLUE wires from fan to BLACK wire
from ceiling with wire connector provided.
Connect WHITE wire from fan to WHITE wire from
ceiling with wire connector provided.
Connect all GROUND (GREEN) wires together from fan
to BARE/GREEN wire from ceiling with wire connector
provided.
If you intend to control the fan light with a separate light
switch connect BLUE wire from fan to the BLACK (or
RED) supply from the independent switch.
* Wrap each wire connector separately with electrical
tape as an extra safety measure.
