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. Insert the downrod through the canopy and canopy trim ring. Feed the wires from the fan through the downrod on one side of the pin in the ball.

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 into the canopy with the lip down.

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

Hanging the Fan:

Note: To hang the fan, you must tilt the canopy to an almost vertical position so that the canopy slots sit on the ceiling plate hooks.

3-7. Raise the fan and align the slots in the canopy with the hooks on the ceiling plate.

3-8. Place the slots over the hooks to hang the fan.
