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. [

WARNING
: Failure to tighten set screw (on hanging
ball) completely could result in the fan becoming
loose and possibly falling.
With the hanging bracket secured to the outlet box
and able to support the fan, you are now ready to
hang your fan. Grab the fan firmly with two hands.
Slide downrod through opening in hanging bracket
and let hanging ball rest on the hanging bracket.
Turn the hanging ball slot until it lines up with the
hanging bracket tab. [
Refer to
diagram 5
.
]
WARNING
: Failure to align slot in hanging ball with
tab in hanging bracket may result in serious injury or
death.
Tip
: Seek the help of another person to hold the
stepladder in place and to help lift the fan up to you
once you are set on the ladder.
Find a secure attachment point (wood ceiling joist
highly recommended) and secure safety cable. It
will be necessary to use a heavy duty wood screw,
washer and lock washer (not supplied) with the
safety cable loop. If necessary, adjust the loop at
the end of the safety cable. The loop at the end of
the safety cable should just fit over the threads on
the wood screw.
Test safety cable by pulling on
loose end of cable with pliers. If the safety cable slips,
the loop must be adjusted tighter.
Extra cable slack
can be left in ceiling area. [
