It is critical that the clevis pin in the
motor coupling is properly installed and
the setscrews securely tightened. Failure
to verify that the pin and setscrews are
properly installed could result in the fan
falling.
WARNING
!
NOTE: Place the parts from the loose
parts bags in a small container to keep
them from being lost. If any parts are
missing, contact your local retailer or
catalog outlet for replacement before
proceeding.
2. Remove the fan assembly from the
protective plastic bag. Place the fan
assembly into the upper foam pad with
the bottom of the motor facing up.
The upper foam pad serves as a holder
for the fan during the first stages of
assembly.
How to Put Your Ceiling Fan Together
1. Remove the hanger ball by loosening
the setscrew in the hanger ball until the
ball falls freely down the downrod
(Figure 1). Remove the pin from the
downrod, then remove the hanger ball.
Retain the pin and hanger ball for
reinstallation in step 5.
2. Separate, untwist and unkink the three
80” motor leads. Route the motor lead
wires through the downrod. Remove
the upper setscrew from the motor
coupling. Align the clevis pin holes in
the downrod with the holes in the motor
coupling. Install the clevis pin and
secure with the hairpin clip (Figure 2).
The clevis pin must go through the
holes in the motor coupling and the
holes in the downrod. Be sure to push
the straight leg of the hairpin clip
through the hole near the end of the
clevis pin until the curved portion of the
hairpin clip snaps around the clevis pin.
The hairpin clip must be properly
installed to prevent the clevis pin from
working loose. Pull on the downrod to
make sure the clevis pin is properly
installed. Reinstall the upper setscrew
in the motor coupling. Check that the
lower setscrew is tightened securely
(Figure 2).
NOTE: The setscrews must be properly
installed as described above, or fan
wobble could result.
3. Make sure the grommet is properly
installed in the coupling cover, then
slide the coupling cover on the
downrod until it rests on the motor
housing. Place the ceiling cover over
the downrod. Be sure that the ceiling
cover and the coupling cover are both
oriented correctly (Figure 3).
