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 and remove the paper caution tag. Do not discard the tag until your installation is complete.

For Standard or Angled mounting:

3-2. To assemble fan to hang down from a flat or angled ceiling, insert the downrod through the canopy, adapter cover grommet, adapter cover, and canopy trim ring. (The adapter cover and adapter cover grommet may already be attached to make one piece.) Feed the wires from the fan through the downrod.

3-3. Using the provided Allen wrench, loosen the 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. Use the Allen wrench to securely retighten the setscrew. Skip to Step 4-1.

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. The adapter cover and adapter cover grommet are not used for low profile mounting.

3-4. Remove the set screw from the adapter.

3-5. Place the low profile washer (lip up) into the canopy. Be sure the green ground wire is pointing up toward the ceiling.

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.
