consequential, or special damages arising out of or in connection with product use or performance except as may otherwise be accorded by
law. Some states do not allow the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you.

Installation

MOUNTING OPTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electric shock or
personal injury, mount to outlet box marked “Acceptable
for fan support of 35 lbs. (15.9 kg) or less”, and use
screws provided with the outlet box. An outlet box
commonly used for the support of lighting xtures may
not be acceptable for fan support and may need to be
replaced. If in doubt, consult a qualied electrician.

If your ceiling fan does not have an existing UL-listed mounting
box, then install one using the following instructions:

□ Disconnect the power by removing the fuses or turning off

the circuit breakers.

□ Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use

the appropriate fasteners and materials. The outlet box and
support structure must be securely mounted and capable of
reliably supporting a minimum of 35 lbs. (15.9 kg). Use only
UL-listed outlet boxes marked “Acceptable for fan support
of 35 lbs. (15.9 kg) or less” Do not use a plastic outlet box.

The illustrations below show three different ways to mount the
outlet box.

NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to maintain
proper blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped
ceiling. The maximum angle allowable is 30° away from
horizontal.

Hanger Bar

Outlet Box

If the canopy touches the downrod, then remove the decorative canopy
bottom cover, and turn the canopy 180° before attaching the canopy to
the mounting plate.

To hang your fan where there is an existing xture but no ceiling joist,
you may need an installation hanger bar as shown above

(available at any Home Depot store).
