IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION:
Before starting the installation of your ceiling fan, install the threaded downrod into the motor coupling and lock the assembly.
Prepare for fan installation as follows:
Step 4a. Remove the caution shield from the motor.
Step 4b. Using the provided Allen wrench (attached to the paper motor warning shield), loosen the Allen set screw attached to the motor coupling.
Step 4c. Slide the 9" Perma•Lock™ downrod and ball assembly through the center of the Decorative Arm assembly.
Step 4d. Route the wires through the Perma•Lock™ downrod and ball assembly.
Step 4e. Insert the downrod into the motor coupling, turning clockwise until it stops, ensuring that the pole has bottomed out.
TIP: The downrod has a tapered thread that is designed to lock completely when installed correctly.
Step 4f. Tighten the set screw with the Allen wrench to ensure safe operation of your fan. If it is tight enough, you should not be able to turn the downrod counterclockwise with your hands. If in doubt, tighten the set screw with the Allen wrench until you cannot turn it any further.
Step 4g. Tighten collar screw on Decorative Arm Assembly to secure.
CAUTION: Failure to fully lock in the downrod before securely tightening the Allen set screw may cause the fan to separate from the downrod and fall during normal operation.
NOTE: Installation of the Decorative Arm Assembly is optional. For installations without the Decorative Arm Assembly, a 3" downrod is provided.
