All electrical work should only be undertaken after disconnection of the power by
removing fuses or turning off the circuit breaker to ensure all pole isolation of the
electrical supply.
Your fan is a drop rod fan (Picture A) In this situation the drop rod assembly is used
to lower the fan down from it’s mounting position slightly. Extension rods, ranging
from 12” to 72”, are available if you need to lower your fan further. (This is normally
the case in conservatories or rooms with very high ceilings.)
Rods can be trimmed if necessary. If trimming is required cut excess from the bottom
of the rod and re-drill a hole for the cotter pin.

Installing the fan
The following steps will guide you to a successful installation:
1.
Hanger bracket installation
2. Drop rod assembly
3. Wiring instructions
4. Attaching light fitting
5. Blade assembly
6. Attaching the blades
The hanger bracket should be screwed on to a firm flat
surface. The fixing location must be able to
withstand ten times the static weight of the fan. If you
have any doubts as to the ability of your intended
fixing location to be able to withstand this loading,
please contact our service help-line or another
competent authority to advise you. In most situation
two wood screws screwed into a wooden joist is more
than adequate to support your ceiling fan
The hanger bracket should be screwed onto the joist
with the two wood screws provided. The washers
provided should go in the following sequence
:
1. Hanger bracket installation

Ceiling. Screw the hanger bracket to the ceiling and make sure all connections are secure
to prevent the fan from falling . Fixings must screw into a joist and not just the
plasterboard. Loosen the two canopy screws from the hanger bracket.
