2-1. Drill two pilot holes into the wood support structure through the

outermost holes in the outlet box. The pilot holes should be 9/64”
in diameter.

2-2. Your fan comes with four neoprene noise isolators (“Isolators”).

Position the isolators between the ceiling plate and ceiling by
inserting the raised areas on each isolator into the holes in the
ceiling plate.

2-3. Thread the lead wires from the outlet box down through the hole

in the middle of the ceiling plate.

2-4. Align the slotted holes in the ceiling plate with the pilot holes you

drilled in the wood support structure. For proper alignment use
slotted holes directly across from each other.

Note: The isolators should be flush against the ceiling.
2-5. Place a flat washer on each of the two 3” screws and pass the

screws through the slotted holes in the ceiling plate into the pilot
holes you drilled.

Tighten the screws into the 9/64” pilot holes; do not use lubricants

on the screws. Do not over tighten.
