Installation & Use Notes:
-
Locate Structural Timber: Identify a rafter, ceiling joist or solid timber member in the roof structure.
-
Pre-drill Holes: Drill pilot holes for lag screws or bolts—size to match fastener specifications.
-
Mount Base Plate: Align the hook’s base plate holes over the pilot holes.
-
Fasten Securely: Use appropriate length and diameter lag bolts or structural screws, torque to recommended values.
-
Attach Safety Cable: Use the integrated safety loop/eye to secure a secondary cable to a structural member as redundancy.
-
Hang Fan: Place the fan’s hanger bracket or canopy onto the hook, ensuring a stable seating.
-
Test & Adjust: Run the fan at low speed to check for vibrations, sagging or wobble; tighten or adjust as needed.
-
Clearance: Ensure fan blades maintain proper clearance from walls and ceiling per manufacturer specification.
-
Periodic Maintenance: Inspect fasteners, hook structure and safety cable periodically, especially in high-vibration or humid conditions.
