Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use appropriate fasteners and building materials. The outlet box and its support must be able to fully support the moving weight of the fan (at least 35 lbs.). Use a UL Listed metal outlet box. Do not use a plastic outlet box.
Figure 1, 2 and 3 are examples of different ways to mount the outlet box.
Note: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling. Longer downrods are available from your Minka dealer.
To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture but no ceiling joist, you
may need to install a hanger bar as shown in Fig. 4 (available at your Minka
dealer).
HANGING THE FAN
WARNING: All of the parts, hardware and components such as the hanger bracket and hanger ball have been provided for your safety and the proper installation of your new ceiling fan. The use of other parts, hardware or components not supplied by Minka with the fan will void the Minka Warranty.
REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow the steps below to hang your fan properly:
Step 1. Secure the Hanger Bracket to the ceiling outlet box using the screws
provided with your outlet box in conjunction. {Fig. 5)
Step 2: Remove the hitch pin and lock pin from down rod assembly. ( Fig.6)
Step 3. Carefully feed fan wires up through the downrod. Thread Downrod into
the Coupling until the holes are lined up and secure with the Lock Pin and
Hitch Pin previously removed, tighten Set Screws. (Fig. 7&Fig.8&Fig.9)
