Installation Guide

Installing Your Fan 3.
Tools Required
Phillips screw driver, straight slot screw
driver, adjustable wrench, step ladder, and
wire cutters.
Mounting Options
If there isn’t an existing 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 35 lbs.)
Do not use plastic outlet boxes.
Figures 1, 2, and 3 are examples of different
ways to mount the outlet box.
Outlet Box
Note: You may need a longer downrod to
maintain proper blade clearance when install-
ing on a steep, sloped ceiling. The maximum
angle allowable is 30˚. If the canopy touches
downrod, remove the decorative canopy
bottom cover and turn the canopy 180˚ before
attaching the canopy to the mounting plate.
Outlet Box
To hang your fan where there is an existing
xture but no ceiling joist, you may need an
installation hanger bar as shown in Figure 4
(available at your Hampton Bay retailer).
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT FAN
ONLY TO AN OUTLET BOX MARKED ACCEPT-
ABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT AND USE THE
MOUNTING SCREWS PROVIDED WITH THE OUT-
LET BOX. OUTLET BOXES COMMONLY USED
FOR THE SUPPORT OF LIGHTING FIXTURES
MAY NOT BE ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT
AND MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED. CONSULT A
LICENSED ELECTRICIAN IF IN DOUBT.
