How to Put Your Ceiling Fan Together
1.Remove the hanger ball by loosening the setscrew in the hanger ball until the ball falls freely down the downrod (Figure 1). Remove the clevis pin from the downrod, then remove the hanger ball. Retain the pin and hanger ball for reinstallation in step 5.

with the holes in the motor coupling. Install the |
clevis pin and secure with the hairpin clip (Figure |
2). The clevis pin must go through the holes in the |
motor coupling and the holes in the downrod. Be |
sure to push the straight leg of the hairpin clip |
through the hole near the end of the clevis pin until |
the curved portion of the hairpin clip snaps around |
the clevis pin. The hairpin clip must be properly |
installed to prevent the clevis pin from working |
loose. Pull on the downrod to make sure the clevis |
pin is properly installed. |
!WARNING
It is critical that the clevis pin in the motor coupling is properly installed and the setscrew securely tightened. Failure to verify that the pin and setscrew are properly installed (as shown in Figure 2) could result in the fan falling.
5.Reinstall the hanger ball (Figure 4) on the downrod as follows. Route the motor leads through the downrod. Position the pin through the two holes in the downrod and align the ball so the pin is captured in the groove in the top of the hanger ball. Pull the hanger ball up tight against the pin and securely tighten the setscrew in the hanger ball. A loose setscrew could create fan wobble.

that are 80” long. Before installing fan, measure up |
approximately 6 to |
ball/downrod assembly. Cut off excess leads and |
strip back insulation |
3.While pulling up on the downrod, securely tighten the setscrew in the motor coupling (Figure 3).
NOTE: The setscrew must be properly installed as described above, or fan wobble could result.
7. Mount blade flanges to fan blades using three |
screws and three fiber blade washers (Figure 5). |
