5. Preparation for Wiring.

To prepare fan for wiring, lift motor housing to
hanging bracket and then hang motor housing
on j-hook on underside of hanging bracket. (Use
one of the non-slotted holes on the rim of the
motor housing to do so.) This will allow motor
housing to hang out of the way while wiring.
Tip: Seek the help of another person to hold the
stepladder in place and to 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 on loose end with pliers. If the
safety cable slips, the loop must be adjusted
smaller. Extra cable slack can be left in ceiling
area.

6. Wiring.

CAUTION: Be sure outlet box is grounded
properly 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.
Once fan has been temporarily hung on the
hanging bracket, electrical wiring can be
made as follows:
Connect BLACK and BLUE wires 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.
If you intend to control the fan light with a
separate light switch, connect BLUE wire from
fan to the BLACK (or RED) supply from the
independent switch.
* Wrap each wire connector separately with
electrical tape as an extra safety measure.
