You can assemble your fan for standard mounting (steps 4-1 – 4-2) or for low profile mounting (steps 4-3 – 4-5). Note: For low profile mounting, the downrod is replaced with the low profile washer.
4-1. To assemble fan to hang down from a flat or angled ceiling, insert the downrod through the canopy. Feed the wires from the fan through the downrod.
4-2. Loosen the square head set screw 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 set screw with a wrench or pliers. Skip to Step 4-6.
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.
4-3. Remove the set screw from the adapter.
4-4. Place the low profile washer (lip down) into the canopy. Be sure the green ground wire is pointing up toward the ceiling.
4-5. Align the holes in the washer with the holes in the adapter. Assemble securely with three low profile screws.
Note: Before hanging the fan, align and engage the two tabs from the bottom of the canopy and the two grooves in the hanger ball.
4-6. Raise the fan and place the hook on the ceiling plate through the round hole in the rim.
