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) to secure 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 of cable with
pliers. If the safety cable slips, the loop must be
adjusted smaller.
Extra cable slack can be left in ceiling area.
