5. MOUNTING OPTIONS
If there isn’t an existing UL/cUL 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 sup-
port must be able to fully support the moving weight of the fan (at least 35 lbs).
Do not use plastic outlet boxes.
Figures 1, 2 and 3 are examples of dierent 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. (Fig. 3)
To hang your fan where there is an existing xture but no ceiling joist, you may
need an installation hanger bar as shown in (Fig. 4)
