After connections have been made, taking care not
to pinch the wires and put the white and green leads to
one side and the black leads towards the other side,
the connection should be turned upward and carefully
push leads into the outlet box. The wires should be
spread apart with the grounded conductor and the
equipment-grounding conductor on one side of the
outlet box and the ungrounded conductor on the other
side. (Figure 3B)
WARNING
Check to see that all connections are tight, including
ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire
connectors except for the ground wire. Do not operate
fan until the blades are in place. Noise and motor
damage could result.
