4. MOUNTING OPTIONS

If there isn't an existing UL listed outlet box, then read
the following instructions. Disconnect the power by
removing fuses or turning off circuit breakers.
Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure.
Use appropriate fasteners and building materials. The
outlet box and its support must be able to fully support
the moving weight of the fan (at least 50 lbs). Do not
use plastic outlet boxes.
Figures 1, 2 and 3 are examples of different ways to
mount the outlet box.
Note: You may need a longer downrod to maintain
proper blade clearance when installing on a steep,
sloped ceiling. (Fig. 3)
To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture
but no ceiling joist, you may need an installation
hanger bar as shown in Figure 4.

5. HANGING THE FAN

REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow the steps
below to hang your fan properly. NOTE: This ceiling
fan is supplied with two types of hanging assemblies;
the standard ceiling installation using the downrod with
ball and socket mounting and the "close-to-ceiling"
installation. The "close-to-ceiling" installation is
recommended in rooms with less than 8-feet ceilings
or in areas where additional space is desired from the
floor to the fan blades.
STANDARD CEILING INSTALLATION
Step 1. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through the
center hole in the ceiling hanger bracket as shown in
Fig. 5.
Step 2. Secure the hanger bracket to the ceiling outlet
box with the screws and washers provided with your
outlet box.
Step 3. Remove hanger ball from downrod assembly
by loosening set screws, removing the pin, and sliding
hanger ball off downrod. (Fig. 6)
Step 4. Loosen the two set screws and remove the
clevis pin and hairpin clip from the top coupling of the
motor assembly. (Fig. 7)
Step 5. Carefully feed the fan wires up through the
downrod. Thread the downrod into the coupling until
the clevis pin holes are aligned. Next, replace the
hairpin clip and clevis pin then tighten the set screws.
