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 help 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 with pliers on loose end of
cables. If the safety cable slips, the loop must be adjusted
smaller. 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 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 downrod is secured in place on the hanging
bracket, electrical wiring can be made as follows:
Connect BLACK wire 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.
* Wrap each wire connector separately with electrical
tape as an extra safety measure.
