5. Fan Assembly. (cont.)
With the hanging bracket secured to the outlet box and able
to support the fan, you are now ready to hang your fan. Grab
the fan firmly with two hands. Slide downrod through
opening in hanging bracket and let hanging ball rest on the
hanging bracket. Turn the hanging ball slot until it lines up
with the hanging bracket tab.
WARNING: Failure to align slot in hanging ball with tab in
hanging bracket may result in serious injury or death.
Tip: Seek the help of another person to hold the stepladder
in place and to help 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) to secure 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.
WARNING: Turn off circuit breakers to current fixture
from breaker panel and be sure switch is turned to the
OFF position.
CAUTION: Be sure outlet box is properly grounded 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 in the diagram to the right, please use a
qualified electrician.
Note: Excess lead wire length from the fan can be cut to
the desired length and then stripped.
When downrod is secured in place on the hanging
bracket, wire the RECEIVER with wire connectors
provided as shown in diagram at right.
Tip: While you are wiring, keep in mind that wires must
not obstruct receiver from sliding into hanging bracket.
* Wrap each wire connector separately with electrical
tape as an extra safety measure.
Gently insert receiver (flat side up) into hanging
bracket and carefully push wires and taped wire
connectors into outlet box. Let antenna rest outside of
hanging bracket.
