2. Carefully lift the fan and seat the hanger ball/

downrod assembly on the hanger bracket that was
just attached to the outlet box (Figure 10). Be sure
the groove in the ball is lined up with tab on the
hanger bracket (Figure 9).

If you feel that you do not have enough electrical
wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan
installed by a licensed electrician.

1. Connect the green grounding lead from the hanger

ball and the green grounding lead from the hanger
bracket to the grounding conductor of supply (this
may be a bare wire or wire with green colored
insulation). Securely connect wires with wire con-
nectors supplied. (Figure 11.)

NOTE: If you are using an Emerson Light Fixture
with your fan, see Light Fixture Owner’s Manual
for wiring.

2. Securely connect the fan motor white wire to the

supply white (neutral) wire using wire connector
supplied (Figure 11). Securely connect the fan
motor black wire and blue wire to the supply black
(hot) wire using wire connector supplied (Figure
11). After connections have been made, turn leads
upward and carefully push leads into the outlet
box, with the white and green leads on one side of
the outlet box and the black and blue leads on the
other side of the outlet box.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked acceptable for
fan support, and use screws supplied with outlet
box. Most outlet boxes commonly used for support
of light fixtures are not acceptable for fan support
and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualified
electrician if in doubt.

The outlet box must be securely anchored and capable
of withstanding a load of at least 50 lbs.

Failure to seat tab in groove could cause damage to
electrical wires and possible shock or fire hazard.

ed, contact a licensed electrician for advice, as it
must be grounded for safe operation.
