Installation Preparation; Hanging Bracket Installation - Craftmade Kate 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) or vaulted ceiling. The
hanging length can be extended by purchasing
a longer downrod (0.5in./1.27cm diameter) than
the ones provided. Other installation, such as
flushmount, is not available for this fan.
Installation requires these tools:
Phillips screwdriver, flathead 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. Ensure outlet box is
clearly marked "Suitable for Fan Support." 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 original
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.
