INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR HUNTER CEILING FANS TYPE 3
Step 4: Installation of Ceiling Plate
A. Install the (3) rubber bushings into the top of the ceiling plate by inserting small side of the rubber bushing into the three holes in the ceiling plate. See Figure 4.
B. Thread the lead wires through the opening in the ceiling plate and install the ceiling plate to the 2 x 4 brace which sup- ports the outlet box. Use (2) #10 wood screws 3" long and (2) flat washers for mounting. Drill (2) pilot holes for the mounting screws 9/64" diameter. See Figure 4A.
NOTE: When mounting the fan on a vaulted ceiling, make sure that one set of elongated slots in the ceiling plate is aligned vertically with the ceiling joist, or horizontally with the cross brace if a cross brace is used. Be sure one of the threaded screw holes in the side of the ceiling plate is facing down. See Figure 4B. The hook in the ceiling plate should be in the down position.
When attaching the canopy to the ceiling plate make sure the two tabs in the center hole of the canopy align vertically so that the tabs properly engage the two grooves in the hanger ball. When properly installed, the round screw clearance hole in the canopy should be facing down.
