1/2” screws (supplied).

Electrical Requirements

Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical
supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit.

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

If your fan is to replace an existing ceiling light fixture,
turn electricity off at the main fuse box at this time
and remove the existing light fixture.

The fan must be hung with at least 7' of clearance
from floor to blades (Figure 12).
