WARNING
!
The fan must be hung with at least 7' of clearance from
floor to blades (Figure 20).
WARNING

The outlet box and joist must be securely mounted and
capable of supporting at least 50 lbs. Use only a U.L.
outlet box listed as "Acceptable for Fan Support of
22.7 kg. (50 lbs.) or less".
WARNING
!
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked "Acceptable
for Fan Support of 22.7 kg. (50 lbs.) or less", 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.
