CAUTION: To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing your fan,
disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box
and associated wall switch location . If you cannot lock the circuit breakers
in the off position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a
tag, to the service panel .
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 .

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

in the middle of the ceiling plate .

the screws through the slotted holes in the ceiling plate into the
