MOUNTING BRACKET INSTALLATION (CONT.)
FAN PREPARATION
PAPER MOTOR
SHIELD
FIGURE_1.
Prepare for fan installation as follows:
Step_1._ Remove the paper shield from the motor
as shown in Figure #1.
Step_2._ Loosen the set screw making sure that
end of the Set Screw can not be seen within the
motor coupling as shown in (Figure #2). If so, you
will need to unscrew the Set Screw so that the tip
of the Set Screw does not remain in the path of the
downrod.
CAUTION: Failure to fully lock in the
downrod before securely tightening the
set screw may cause the fan to separate
from the downrod and fall during normal
operation.

Step_1._ Align the slotted holes in the ceiling plate
with the pilot holes you drilled in the wood support
structure. For proper alignment use slotted holes
directly across from each other.
Note:_The isolators should be flush against the
ceiling.
Step_2._ Place a flat washer on each of the two
3” wood screws and pass the screws through the
slotted holes in the ceiling plate into the pilot holes
you drilled.
Step_3._ Tighten the screws into the 9/64” pilot
holes; do not use lubricants on the screws. Do not
over tighten.
