Hanging the Fan

REMEMBER

 to turn off  the power.  Follow 

the steps below to hang your fan properly. 
NOTE: This ceiling fan is supplied with two 
types of hanging assemblies; the standard 
ceiling installation using the downrod with ball 
and socket mounting and the "close-to-ceiling" 
installation. The "close-to-ceiling" installation 
is recommended in rooms with less than 8-feet 
ceilings or in areas where additional space is 
desired from the floor to the fan blades.  When 
using the standard 4 1/2" downrod, the  
distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the 
fan blades will be approximately 12 

 inches.

different procedures to follow for the two types 
of mounting.

            4. 

1. Remove the canopy ring from the canopy by 

turning the ring  clockwise until it unlocks. (Fig. 
5)

2. Remove the hanger bracket from the canopy by 

loosening the four screws on the top of the 
canopy.  Remove the two non-slotted screws 
and loosen the slotted screws.  This will enable 
you to remove the hanger bracket. (Figure 5)

3. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through the 

center hole in the ceiling hanger bracket as 
shown in Fig.6

4. Loose the two screws on the outlet box in half 

way.

5. Attach the hanger bracket on the outlet box by 

sliding the hanger bracket over the screws 
provided with the outlet box.

6. Tighten the two screws on the outlet box 

securely.

7. Remove the hanger pin, lock pin and set screws 

from the top of the motor assembly.

8. Route wires exiting from the top of the fan 

motor through the collar cover and canopy ring. 
Make sure the slot openings of the canopy ring 
are on top.  Route the wires through the canopy 
and then through the ball/downrod assembly 
(Figure 6A).

9. Align the holes at the bottom of the 

downrod with the holes in the collar on 
top of the motor housing (Figure 6A). 
Carefully insert the hanger pin through 
the holes in the collar and downrod.  Be 
careful not to jam the pin against the 
wiring inside the downrod.  Insert the 
locking pin through the hole in locked 
position, as noted in the circle inset of 
Figure 6A.

motor firmly. (Figure 6A)
