Electrical and Structural Requirements (Continued)
No blocking (Figure 3)
Paired with a deep box, this hanger is meant to span
between two joists and takes the place of wooden
blocking.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
personal injury, mount fan to outlet box marked
acceptable for fan support of 15.88 kg (35 lbs) or less.
Use screws supplied with outlet box. Most outlet
boxes commonly used for support of light fixtures
are not acceptable for fan support and may need to
be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if
in doubt.
If your fan is to replace an existing light fixture, turn
electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and
remove the existing light fixture.
WARNING
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is
turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All
wiring must be in accordance with National and
Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly
grounded as a precaution against possible electrical
shock.
WARNING
To avoid fire or shock, follow all wiring instructions
carefully. Any electrical work not described in these
instructions should be done or approved by a
licensed electrician.
WARNING
Do not operate this fan with a variable (Rheostat) wall
controller or dimmer switch. Doing so could result in
damage to the ceiling fan's remote control unit.
