Step 4: Hanging the Fan
CAUTION: BE SURE TO TIGHTEN THE PIPE NIPPLE
INTO THE FAN, THE HANGER BRACKET ONTO
THE PIPE, AND TIGHTEN THE TWO SET SCREWS
AS DESCRIBED IN SUB-STEP 2 TO PREVENT THE
FAN FROM FALLING.
CAUTION: YOUR FAN MAY WEIGH UP TO 50
LBS. ALL OF THE FOLLOWING STEPS MUST BE
FOLLOWED IN ORDER TO ENSURE A SECURE
MOUNTING. PERFORM SUB-STEPS 1 - 4 WITH
THE MOTOR RESTING IN THE PACKAGING LINER
FOR PROTECTION.
• For concrete mounting, the drilled hole must
be recommended by the manufacturer of the
anchor and it must be drilled at least 1/2"
deeper than the length of the anchor.
NOTE: The drilled hole is usually marked on
the anchor.
• The holes must be made with a suitable car-
bide-tipped masonry drill bit.
• The anchors must be new and unused.
• The concrete ceiling must be sound and free
of cracks or voids in the vicinity of the mount-
ing holes.
• The anchors must be set in flush with the sur-
face of the concrete. See figure 7.
• The bracket screws must never be backed out.
If the bracket screws can be turned easily (by
hand), do not hang the fan.
1. Drill holes 2" deep in concrete ceiling to re-
ceive 1/4" x 1-1/2" expansion shield anchor,
“Rawl No. 1055” or equal. (Not furnished.)
2. Install shield in holes, observing all cautions

1. Take the hanger bracket from the sack parts and
locate the pipe nipple. Feed the wires from the
top of your motor through the pipe.
2. Back out the set screw in the neck of the motor
housing and the hanger bracket so the pipe
can be screwed in. Screw the pipe into the fan
until tight (At least 4-1/2 turns). Feed the wire
through the hanger bracket and screw the
hanger bracket onto the pipe until tight (At least
3 turns). Then use pliers to tighten both the
hanger bracket and the pipe together. Tighten
the set screw in the motor housing with pliers.
Securely tighten the set screw in the hanger
bracket. See Figure 8.
3. Be sure the pin is centered in the rubber
bushing. See Figures 9 and 10.
4. Lift the fan by the motor housing and hook the
hanger bracket onto the pin in the rubber bush-
ing. Make sure both ends of the pin are out-
side the hanger bracket. See Figure 10.
WARNING: FAILURE TO PERFORM THESE STEPS
IN THE CORRECT ORDER MAY RESULT IN THE
FAN FALLING.
