Step 4: Installation of Ceiling Plate
A. Install the (3) rubber bushings into the top of the ceiling plate by inserting small side of the bushing into the three holes in the ceiling plate. See Figure 4A.
B. Thread the lead wires through the opening in the ceiling plate and install the ceiling plate to the 2 x 4 brace which sup- ports the outlet box. Use (2) #10 woodscrews 3" long and (2) flatwashers for mounting. Drill (2) pilot holes for the mounting screws 9⁄64" diameter. See Figure 4B.
NOTE: When attaching ceiling plate to the outlet box support, make certain bushings remain in place.
NOTE: Tighten the ceiling plate mounting screws only enough to provide slight compression of the bushings. Do not over- tighten.

Place the canopy on top of the fan and align the proper holes. See Figure 5. Make certain you have located the hole pattern by checking to see that the canopy sits flat on top of the fan with- out a space between the bottom of the canopy and the top of the fan. If a space is present, rotate the canopy slightly, eliminating the space.
B. Next, secure the canopy to the top of the fan using (3) #10- 32 screws with lockwashers packaged with the adaptor kit. Make certain the screws are tight. Failure to do so could result in the fan falling.
CAUTION: To ensure proper engagement of the canopy assem- bly screws, the canopy must fit snug against the top of the fan.
CAUTION: Do not lift motor by wires.
C. Being careful not to scratch the canopy finish, hang the fan from the hook in the ceiling plate using one of the (2) slots in the canopy. See Figure 5A.

A. Insert pipe nipple through canopy and feed wires from top of motor through pipe nipple. Screw pipe nipple into fan until tight (at least 41⁄2 turns). The setscrew locking the pipe nipple to motor must be tightened very securely. See Figure 5B. Failure to tighten screw could result in fan falling.
CAUTION: The pipe nipple has a special coating on the threads. Do not remove. The coating is to help prevent the nip- ple from unscrewing.
B. Being careful not to scratch the canopy finish, hang the fan from the hook in the ceiling plate using one of the (2) slots in the canopy. See Figure 5A.
NOTE: For mounting fan on vaulted ceiling, there are (2) sets of holes on the side. Locking tab in side must be in up position. Use set of holes in ceiling plate that assures locking tab in canopy is in the up position.
