How to Hang and Wire Your Ceiling Fan
WARNING
It is critical that the outlet box and the screws are
securely anchored to the building structure and capable
of withstanding a load of at least 35 lbs. Failure to verify
that the screws are properly installed could result in the
fan falling. (Figure 2)
Figure 1
WARNING
To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is
turned off at the main fuse box before hanging.
NOTE: If you are not sure if the outlet box is grounded,
contact a licensed electrician for advice, as it must be
grounded for safe operation.
WARNING
The fan must be hung with at least 7´ of clearance from
floor to blades. (Figure 1)
