2. WARNING: All wiring must be in accordance with the
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 and local

4. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,
or Personal Injury mount to an outlet box marked
“Acceptable For Fan Support of up to 22.7 kg (50 lb)”.
For outlet box mounting, use mounting screws (and
lock washers) provided with the outlet box. Most outlet
boxes commonly used for the support of light fixtures
are not acceptable for fan support and may need to
be replaced. Due to the complexity of the installation
of this fan, a qualified licensed electrician is strongly
recommended.”
5. The outlet box and support structure must be securely
mounted and capable of reliably supporting a minimum of
22.7 kg (50 lb). Use only CUL Listed outlet boxes marked
“FOR FAN SUPPORT”.

MOUNTING OPTIONS
If there isn’t an existing UL (cUL for Canadian Installation) listed
mounting box, then read the following instructions. Disconnect the
power by removing fuses or turning o circuit breakers.
Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use
appropriate fasteners and building materials. The outlet box and its
support must be able to fully support the full weight of the fan (up
to 22.7 kg (50 lb)). Do not use plastic outlet boxes.
Figures 1, 2, and 3 are examples of dierent ways to mount the
outlet box.
NOTE: If you are installing the ceiling fan on a sloped (vaulted)
ceiling, you may need a longer downrod to maintain proper
clearance between the tip of the blade and the ceiling. A minimum
clearance of 12” is suggested for optimal operation.
NOTE: Depending on the location you have selected for
installation, you may need to purchase and install a “Joist Hanger”
for the support of the outlet box. Make sure the joist hanger you
purchase has been designed for use with ceiling fans. (Fig. 4)
