instructions appearing in the manual are not meant to
cover all possible conditions and situations that may
occur. It must be understood that common sense and
caution are necessary factors in the installation and
operation of this fan.
5. Fan Assembly (with downrod).
Remove hanging ball from downrod provided by
loosening set screw on hanging ball. Remove pin
and clip. Lower hanging ball and remove stop
pin. Then slide hanging ball off downrod. [Refer
to diagram 1.]
Loosen yoke set screws and nut at top of motor
housing. [Refer to diagram 2.]
Tip: To prepare for threading electrical wires
through downrod, apply a small piece of
electrical tape to the ends of the electrical
wires--this will keep the wires together when
threading them through the downrod. [Refer
to diagram 2.]
Determine the length of downrod you wish
to use. Thread safety cable and electrical wires
through threaded end of downrod and pull extra
wire slack from the upper end of the downrod.
[Refer to diagram 2.]
Thread downrod into the motor housing yoke
until holes for pin and clip in downrod align
with holes in yoke--make sure wires do not
get twisted. Re-insert pin and clip that were
previously removed. Tighten yoke set screws
and nut securely. [Refer to diagram 2.]
Slide canopy over downrod. [Refer to diagram 3.]
Thread safety cable and wires through hanging
ball; then, slide hanging ball over downrod--the
top of the downrod should be noted as having a
set screw hole; use this hole when setting the set
screw. Insert stop pin into top of downrod and
raise hanging ball. Be sure stop pin aligns with
slots on the inside of the hanging ball. Tighten
set screw securely. [Refer to diagram 4.]
WARNING: Failure to tighten set screw (on
hanging ball) completely could result in the
fan becoming loose and possibly falling.
