70-1999), including fire-rated construction.
Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have any questions contact the manufacturer.
After making the wire connections, the wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding conductor
on one side of the outlet box and ungrounded conductor on the other side of the outlet box. The splices, after being made, should be
turned upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box.
WARNING: Before you begin installing the fan, servicing or cleaning unit, Switch power off at Service panel and lock service disconnecting
means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a
prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
Be cautious! Read all instructions and safety information before installing your new fan. Review the accompanying assembly diagrams.
When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
Make sure the installation site you choose allows the fan blades to rotate without any obstructions. Allow a minimum clearance of 7 feet
from the floor to the trailing edge of the blade.

Installation Instruction
Before you begin installing the fan, Switch power off at Service panel
and lock service disconnecting means to prevent power from being
switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot
be locked, securely fasten a warning device, such as a tag, to the
service panel. (Fig. 1)
Before installing this fan make sure the outlet box is properly installed to
the house structure. To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or
personal injury, mount to outlet box or supporting system acceptable
for fan support (Mounting must support at least 35 lbs). (Fig. 2)
Use metal outlet box suitable for fan support and use only the screws
(and may be with flat washers and lock washers) provided with the outlet
box (must support 35 lbs). Before attaching fan to outlet box, ensure
the outlet box is securely fastened by at least two points to a structural
ceiling member (a loose box will cause the fan to wobble). Remove the
two outlet box screws provided with the box, aligning the holes of the
mounting bracket with the holes of the outlet box. Reinstall the 2 outlet
