SAFETY RULES

1. Before you begin installing the fan, shut power off at the circuit breaker of the fuse box.

2. Be cautious! Read all instructions and safety information before installing your new fan. Review accompanying assembly diagrams.

not use a plastic box.

7. If you are mounting the fan to a joist, make sure it is able to support the moving weight of the fan (at least 50 pounds).

8. After you install the fan, make sure that all mounting components are secured to prevent the fan from falling.

9. Do not insert anything into the fan blades while the fan is operating.
