3 • Assembling and Hanging the Fan

WARNING: Fan may fall if not assembled as directed in these installation instructions.

3-1. Unbundle the wires from the fan.

For Standard or Angled mounting:

3-2. To assemble fan to hang down from a flat or angled ceiling, insert the downrod through the canopy and canopy trim ring. Feed the wires from the fan through the downrod.

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. Skip to Step 3-7.

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.

For Low Profile mounting:

Note: For low profile mounting, the downrod is replaced with the low profile washer.

3-4. Remove the setscrew from the adapter.

3-5. Place the low profile washer (lip up) into the canopy. Be sure the green ground wire is pointing up toward the ceiling.

3-6. Align the holes in the washer with the holes in the adapter. Assemble securely with three low profile screws.

3-7. Raise the fan and place the hook on the ceiling plate through the U-shaped hole in the rim.
