Prepare for fan installation as follows:
3a. route the wires from the motor through the Perma•Lock™
downrod and ball assembly.
3b. Using the provided allen wrench, loosen the set screw
several turns to allow installation of the downrod. Thread
the downrod into the motor coupling until it stops turning,
this will take at least four and a half full turns.
3c. Securely tighten the set screw with the provided allen
wrench to ensure safe operation of your fan.
Tip: The downrod has a tapered thread
that is designed to lock completely when
correctly installed.
CaUTIoN: failure to fully lock in the down-
rod before securely tightening the set screw
may cause the fan to separate from the
downrod during normal operation!

NOTE: This step is required only under two condi-
tions: If the fan weighs 36 lbs. or more (which does
not pertain to this fan) or if the existing ceiling
fixture outlet box needs to be modified for a ceiling
fan application (for example, if the house is not new
construction and you are replacing an existing light
fixture). We recommend that the ceiling box be of
sufficient capacity to support the weight of the fan
and light fixture under any conditions. If in doubt
whether you need to install the lag screw, consult a
qualified electrician.
Step 2 (optional). With the large washer attached,
pass the lag screw (Pack A) through the center hole
of the crossbar mounting bracket and screw into the
guidehole. Tighten until the outlet box is mounted
firmly to the beam. This box must be secured to the
ceiling firmly.
