A safety support cable is provided to help

washers to the ceiling joist next to the mounting

bracket but do not tighten. See Figure 10-1
Step 2. Adjust the length of the safety cable to

reach the screw and washers by pulling the

extra cable through the cable clamp until the

overall length is correct, put the end of the cable

back through the cable clamp, forming a loop at

the end of the cable. Tighten the cable clamp

securely. Now, put the loop in the end of the

safety cable over the wood screw and under the

washers. Tighten the wood screw secuely. (Fig.

and fan light supply BLUE wire to the BLACK

household supply wire as shown in Fig. 11.

Step 2. Connect the fan neutral WHITE wire to

the household neutral WHITE wire as shown in

Step 3. If your outlet box has a ground wire

(GREEN or bare copper) connect it to the fan

ground wire (GREEN); otherwise, connect the

ground wire on the hanging bracket to the fan

ground wire (GREEN).

WARNING: Be sure no bare wire or wire

strands are visible after making all connections.

Step 4. After making all of the above connect-

ing, spread them apart so the GREEN and

connections are on the other side. Now, push
