Installing Fan to
the Outlet Box
WHEN MOUNTING THE FAN ON A SLOPED
CEILING, THE STANDARD BALL/DOWNROD
MOUNTING METHOD MUST BE USED. MAKE
SURE THE MOUNTING BRACKET SLOTS ARE
ON THE LOWER SIDE BY SLIDING THE MOUNT-
ING BRACKET FROM THE TOP DOWN.
1. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through the
center hole in the ceiling mounting bracket
as shown in Figure 7.
2. Install the ceiling mounting plate on the out-
let box by sliding the mounting plate over
the two screws provided with the outlet box
(Figure 11). When using close-to-ceiling
mounting, it is important that the mounting
bracket be level. If necessary, use leveling
washers (not included) between the mount-
ing plate and the outlet box. Note that the
flat side of the mounting bracket is toward
the outlet box (Figure 11).
3. Securely tighten the two mounting screws.
4. For additional security, install two wood
screws with flat washers (not included)
through outer slots in mounting plate and
into wooden joist. Note: Leave one wood
screw untightened to attach safety cable
from motor.
5. Carefully lift the fan assembly up to the ceil-
ing mounting plate. If using close-to-ceiling
mounting, hang the fan on the hook provid-
ed by utilizing one of the holes at the outer
rim of the ceiling canopy (Figure 11). If us-
6.
ing standard mounting, seat the hanger ball
in the mounting plate socket. Make sure the
tab on the mounting plate socket is properly
seated in the groove in the hanger ball.
WHEN USING THE STANDARD BALL/DOWN-
ROD MOUNTING, THE TAB IN THE RING AT THE
BOTTOM OF THE MOUNTING BRACKET MUST
REST IN THE GROOVE OF THE HANGER BALL.
FAILURE TO PROPERLY SEAT THE TAB IN THE
GROOVE COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO WIRING.
THE HOOK AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 11 IS ONLY
TO BALANCE FAN WHILE ATTACHING WIRING.
FAILURE TO HANG AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 11
MAY RESULT IN HOOK BREAKING, CAUSING
THE FAN TO FALL. HOOK MUST PASS FROM
INSIDE TO OUTSIDE OF CANOPY.
Making the Electrical
Connections
REMEMBER to disconnect the power. If
you feel you do not have enough electrical
wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan
installed by a licensed electrician.
Note: Install the receiver prior to wiring your
fan, see Operating Your Remote Control on
page 11 for details, or follow the instructions
packed with the receiver.
Figure 11
Follow the steps below to connect the fan
to your household wiring. Use the wire
connecting nuts supplied with your fan. Se-
cure the connectors with electrical tape.
Make sure there are no loose strands or
connections.
1. Connect the ground conductor of the 120v
supply (this may be a bare wire or a wire
with green colored insulation) to the green
ground lead(s) of the fan (Figure 12). Con-
nect the fan motor white wire to the sup-
ply white (neutral) wire using a wire nut
(Figure 12).
2. Connect the fan motor white wire to
the receiver white wire using a wire nut
(Figure 12).
3. Connect the fan motor black wire to the
receiver black wire using a wire nut
(Figure 12).
