screws and bolts for tightness.

1.  Remove the decorative canopy bottom cover 

from the canopy by turning the cover counter 
clockwise. (Fig. 5)

by removing the 1 of 2 screws from the 
bottom of the hanger bracket and loosening 
the other one a half turn from the screw head. 
Next, turn the canopy counter clockwise to 
removing the hanger bracket from the 
canopy. (Fig. 5)

3.  Secure the hanger bracket to the ceiling outlet 

box using screws and washers included with 
your outlet box. (Fig. 6)

4. Loosen the two set screws and remove the 

hitch pin and lock pin from the central 
shaft/top coupling of the motor assembly.  
Doing so will allow the down rod to enter the 
central shaft. (Fig. 7)

5. Route wires exiting from the top of the fan 

motor through the coupling cover, secure 
ring, canopy cover and canopy and then 
through the ball/downrod. (Fig. 7)

6.  Align the holes at the bottom of the downrod 

with the holes in the collar on top of the 
motor housing. Carefully insert the hitch pin 
through the holes in the collar and downrod. 
Be careful not to jam the pin against the 
wiring inside the downrod. Insert the lock pin 
through the hole near the end of the hitch pin 
until it snaps into its locked position. (Fig. 7)
