Installing the Ceiling Bracket
Installing the Downrod
You have two options for installation. Pick which one works best for your location.
Follow below if you are using the downrod that came pre-assembled in your box. Need to
install a longer or shorter downrod? Check out the guide at the end of this manual.
Check the outlet box:
Use wood screws (included)
when securing to support
structure with approved
electrical outlet box. Drill
9/64” pilot holes in support
structure to aid in securing
ceiling bracket with
hardware found in the
hardware bag.
Use machine screws (pro-
vided with outlet box) when
securing to existing ceiling
fan-rated outlet box. Make
sure it is securely installed
and is acceptable for fan
support of 31.8 kg (70 lbs)
or less.

If the setscrew is not tightened
securely, the fan may fall.
The machine screws are the ones
that came with your outlet box.

Hand tighten the downrod (at least

the wires coming from the fan so
that 8-inches remain coming from
the top of the downrod.
Tighten the setscrew
with pliers.
DO NOT
