You can assemble your fan for standard or angled mounting as shown 
in steps 3-1 – 3-3. For low profile mounting (ceilings less than 8 feet 
high), go to steps 3-6 – 3-9 on the next page. 
3-1. To assemble fan to hang down from a flat or angled ceiling, place 
the canopy and canopy trim ring around the adapter so that they 
rest on the fan assembly. 
3-2. Feed the wires from the fan through the downrod.
 Note: Make sure all the wires are on the same side of the metal 
dowel pin inside the dowrod.
3-3. Loosen the square head setscrew on the adapter to install the pipe
and ball assembly. Note: When the pipe and ball assembly is fully 
installed, 2-3 threads on the pipe will still be visible; this is normal. 
Securely retighten the setscrew with a wrench or pliers.
CAUTION: The adapter has a special coating on the threads. Do
not remove this coating; the coating prevents the downrod from 
unscrewing. Once assembled, do not remove the downrod.
WARNING: Do not carry or lift fan by canopy.
3-4. Raise the fan and place the ball into the hanger bracket. 
3-5. Align the notch on the ball with the indent in the hanger bracket. 
(Rotate the fan until you hear the notch pop into place.)
