Ceiling Fan and Fixture Support
MODEL 01070
The Saf-T-Grid® is UL listed for fan support and exceeds the requirements of the National Electric Code for

sheathed cable.
INSTRUCTIONS
Turn off electrical power at breaker!
1. Press the plastic clips onto the support bars. The short bar (or bottom bar) will have a clip on each end and should be
pressed into the bottom hole of the clips (figure 1). The long bar (or top bar) will have a clip on one end and it should be
fitted into the top hole of the clip (figure 2).
2. Using the electrical box as a template, mark and cut out a hole in the ceiling tile where the fan is to be installed.
3. Using the electrical box bracket provided, loosely attach the box to the 24” support bar with the locknut (figure 3).
4. Center the electrical box over the hole in the ceiling tile and snap the ends of the support bar down onto the ceiling grid
(figure 4).
5. Tighten the locknuts inside the electrical box to clamp it to the support bar (figure 5).
6. Slide the stabilizer bar through the electrical box bracket and snap the end onto the ceiling grid (figure 6).
7. Tighten the locknut at the top of the electrical box bracket so that it clamps the stabilizer bar securely (figure 7).
8. Using the S-hooks provided, secure the Saf-T-Chain® to the supporting structure above, centering the chain directly
over the electrical box (figure 8). NOTE: The long chain should be attached to the support and use the shorter chain
for centering.
9. Using one of the S-hooks, attach the chain to the turnbuckle at the top of the electrical box bracket. Use the turnbuckle to
adjust the chain so that all of the weight is supported by the chain and not by the ceiling grid (figure 9).
10. When you are ready to hang the fan or fixture, remove Saf-T-Cap®. Install fan or fixture screwing the 10-24 x 3/4” bolts
into the threaded inserts, NOT THE ELECTRICAL BOX EARS! Box ears can be used to mount light-weight fixtures or
cover plates.
11. Complete the installation and wiring according to fan or fixture manufacturer’s instructions.
