Installation Preparation; Hanging Bracket Installation - Craftmade Fluid FLD54 Guia De Instalacion

3. Installation Preparation.

To prevent personal injury and damage, ensure
that the hanging location allows the blades a
clearance of 7 feet (2.13m) from the floor and 30in.
(76cm) from any wall or obstruction.
This fan is suitable for room sizes up to 400 square
feet (37.2 square meters).
This fan can be mounted with a downrod on a
regular (no-slope) ceiling. This fan can be mounted
on a vaulted ceiling with the use of an 18in. or
longer downrod (0.5in./1.27cm diameter)--sold
separately. Fan CANNOT mount as a flushmount
installation.
Installation requires these tools:
Phillips screwdrivers, flat-head screwdriver,
adjustable pliers or wrench, stepladder, wire
cutters and rated electrical tape.

4. Hanging Bracket Installation.

Turn off circuit breakers to current fixture from breaker
panel and be sure operating light switch is turned to
the OFF position.
WARNING: Failure to disconnect power supply prior to
installation may result in serious injury.
Remove existing fixture.
WARNING: When using an existing outlet box, be sure the
outlet box is securely attached to the building structure
and can support the full weight of the fan. To reduce the
risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, ensure
outlet box is clearly marked "Acceptable for Fan Support
of 15.9 kg (35 lb) or less"; if not, it MUST be replaced with
an approved outlet box. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury.
CAUTION: Be sure outlet box is grounded properly and
that a ground wire (GREEN or bare) is present.
Install hanging bracket to outlet box using outlet box
screws provided (or original outlet box screws), spring
washers and flat washers provided with new or original
outlet box.* If installing on a vaulted ceiling, face
opening of hanging bracket towards high point of
ceiling. Arrange electrical wiring around the back of the
hanging bracket and away from the bracket opening.
*Note: It is very important that you use the proper
hardware when installing the hanging bracket as this will
support the fan.
