rod assembly on the hanger bracket that was just
attached to the outlet box (Figure 19). Be sure the
groove in the ball is lined up with the tab on the
hanger bracket (Figure 18).
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
connectors supplied. (Figure 20.)
2. Securely connect the fan motor white wire to the
supply white (neutral) wire using wire connector
supplied (Figure 20). Securely connect the fan
motor black wire and blue wire to the supply black
(hot) wire using wire connector supplied (Figure
20). After connections have been made, separate
the white and green leads from the black and blue
leads. Carefully turn the leads upward and push
the green and white leads into one side of the
outlet box. Then push the black and blue leads into
the other side of the outlet box.
