3. Installing Your Fan
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid possible
electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse
box before wiring. All wiring must be in accordance with AS/NZS 3000
“The Wiring Rules” and the ceiling fan must be properly grounded as
a precaution against possible electrical shock.
Mounting Options
Secure the mounting bracket directly to the building structure. Use appropriate fasteners into the structure as
it must be able to support 44kg static weight.
To hang your fan where there is an existing light fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need an installation hanger
bar OR install a timber batten as shown in the figure below.

Note: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped
ceiling. The maximum angle allowable is 30o.
When mounting the fan on a sloping ceiling, the hanger bracket must be mounted so that the slot
opening is on the high side facing up the slope.
