REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT PARTS
STEp 4. - TURN OFF pOWER AT FUSE bOX OR CIRCUIT
bREAkER. The fan requires a 120 volt A.C. power source with
at least 5 amp capacity. All electrical work must be in accordance
with local building codes using approved material. Follow wiring
diagram as shown below in FIg. 5 to finish electrical installa-
tion. Before restoring power, be certain the fan blades are clear
as the pull chain switch may be in the “on” position. If you are
using a separately purchased wall mounted control, follow
the instructions furnished with that control.
STEp 5. Cut out the plenum at premarked openings to fit your
ceiling joists. Attach the plenum to the deck using the #10 screws
and fender washers provided . Staple or tack the plenum to the
ceiling joist. Improper installation of the plenum can result in poor
fan performance or possible motor failure. Re-install insulation to
the edge of the plenum. Cover any opening with duct tape. The
plenum must be tightly sealed to the fan, joists and ceiling so the
fan draws air from the living area only. (FIg. 6)
STEp 6. Install flush mounted ceiling shutter into the ceiling
opening using the #10 1 ⁄
4
" screws included in the shutter carton.
Caution should be taken not to effect the free operating action
of the shutter. Drop the pull chain through the hole provided in
the shutter and trim it to desired length. Your installation is now
complete. (FIg. 7)
