1. Securely attach the hanger bracket to the outlet box
using the outlet box screws and washers supplied with
the outlet box. (Figure 3)
2. Drill a 1/4” pilot hole into the building structure to
prevent splitting or cracking with installation of the lag
bolt. Using the 3/8” x 2” lag bolt and flat washer, attach
safety cable to ceiling joist or wood structural member.
The lag bolt will pass through the flat washer, safety
cable loop, and into the building structure. (Figure 3)
NOTE: Ceiling support cable cannot be secured to
outlet box only, it must be directly secured to ceiling
joist or structural member using the 3/8” x 2” lag bolt
and flat washer. (Figure 3)
