All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code
“ANSI/NFPA 70-1999” and local electrical codes. Electrical installation
should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.

If there isn't an existing UL listed mounting box,
then read the following instructions. Disconnect
the power by removing fuses or turning off 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 moving weight of the fan
(at least 50 lbs). Do not use plastic outlet boxes.

Note: You may need a longer downrod to
maintain proper blade clearance when installing
on a steep, sloped ceiling. The maximum angle
allowable is 25°. If the canopy touches downrod,
remove the decorative canopy bottom cover and
turn the canopy 180° before attaching the canopy
to the mounting plate.
