Hanging the Fan


REMEMBER
to turn off the power.
Follow the steps below to hang your fan
properly.
NOTE: This ceiling fan is supplied with
two types of hanging assemblies; the
standard ceiling installation using the
downrod with ball and socket mounting,
and the "close-to-ceiling" mounting. The
"close-to-ceiling" mounting is
recommended in rooms with less than
8-foot ceilings or in areas where
additional space is desired from the floor
to the fan blades. When using standard
downrod installation, the distance from
the ceiling to the bottom of the fan
blades will be approximately 12 inches.
The "close-to-ceiling" installation
reduces the distance from the ceiling to
the bottom of the fan blades to
approximately 9 inches.


Once you have decided which ceiling
installation you will use, proceed with
the following instructions. Where
necessary, each section of the
instructions will note the different
procedures to follow for the two types of
installation.


OPTION 1: STANDARD CEILING
MOUNTING

1.

Remove the hanger bracket from

the canopy by removing the four screws
on the top of the canopy (Figure 5).

Figure 5


2. Route the wires exiting the top of
the fan motor through the motor collar
cover. Route the wires through the
canopy and then through the ball/
downrod assembly (Figure 6).
3. Loosen, but do not remove, the 2
set screws on the collar on the top of the
motor housing.
4. Align the holes at the bottom of the
downrod with holes in the collar on top
of the motor housing (Figure 6).

Carefully insert the bolt through the
holes in the collar and downrod. Be
careful not to jam the bolt against the
wiring inside the downrod. Insert clevis
pin and bend to ensure security, as noted
in the circle inset of Figure 6.

5. Tighten the two screws on top of
the fan motor firmly and slide down the
motor collar cover (Figure 6).

WARNING

FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL LOCKING PIN
AS NOTED IN STEP 4 COULD RESULT IN FAN
LOOSENING AND POSSIBLY FALLING.
