10. When hanging fan on factory supplied “J” hook,

make sure cable at top of rod is positioned
behind “J” hook as illustrated in Figure 3.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: It is important to note proper
installation position of the cable clamps as illustrated in
Figure 4. To obtain maximum holding power, install
U-bolt section of clip on dead or short end of cable and
saddle on long end of cable. Improper installation
reduces the efficiency of the connection by as much as
40 percent.

WARNING: DISCONNECT CIRCUIT POWER BEFORE
MAKING ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS.

11. Run the wires from the downrod assembly to the

electrical supply using appropriate wiring in accor-
dance with the local code. Connect with listed wire
connectors available from your local distributor.
Connect black to black, white to white, and green
grounding lead to the grounded conductor of the
supply circuit. No loose strands or loose connections
should be present. After splices are made, the wires
should be spread apart so that the green and white
are on one side of the outlet box and the black is on
the other side. Turn splices upward and carefully
push all wiring into outlet box.

12. Slide the upper canopy (B) up the rod to within 1/4”

of the ceiling or beam and securely tighten the set
screw (F).

13. If a remote speed control is to be used refer to the

installation included with that control for proper in-

installation and wiring.

14. Restore power.
15. After completing installation, test run fan in normal

operating manner. Inspect for any possible shake or
wobble which may be caused by binding as a result
of “tight cable“. If this should happen, shut off power
supply and re-check instructions to correct problem.

NOTE: When any solid state motor speed control is
used, a humming noise will be present in the fan on low
speed. This hum in no way affects the operation of the
fan and is acceptable in most industrial installations.

CAUTION: Do not flip switch from forward to reverse
or vice versa without waiting for motor to stop.
Damage to motor or driven equipment can result.
