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.
