Hanging the Fan

REMEMBER

 to turn off the power. Follow the 

steps below to hang your fan properly:

Step 1. Remove the decorative canopy bottom 
cover from the canopy by turning the cover 
counter clockwise.(Fig. 7)

Step 2.  Remove the hanger bracket from the 
canopy by loosening the two screws on the 
bottom of the hanging bracket a half turn from 
the screw head and turning the canopy counter 
clockwise.(Fig. 7)

Step 3. Secure the hanger bracket to the ceiling 
outlet box with the screws and washers provided 
with your outlet box.

Step 4. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through 
the center hole in the ceiling hanger bracket. 
(Fig. 8)

Step 5. Remove the hanger pin, lock pin and set 
screws from the top of the motor assembly.

NOTE:

 If a longer downrod is needed, take out 

the screw located in the hanger ball, lower the 
hanger ball and remove the pin, remove all 3 
pieces from the downrod and assemble them 
onto the new longer downrod before proceeding 
step 7. (The longer downrod is available at any 
Home Depot store)

Step 6. Route wires exiting from the top of the 
fan motor through the collar cover, canopy 
cover, canopy and then through the ball / 
downrod. (Fig. 9)

Step 7. Align the holes at the bottom of the 
downrod with the holes in the collar on top of the 
motor housing (Fig. 9). 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 near the end of the hanger pin until it 
snaps into its locked position, as noted in the 
circle inset of Fig. 9. 

Step 8. Tighten two set screws on top of the fan 
motor firmly  (Fig. 9)

Step 9. Place the downrod ball into the hanger 
bracket socket. Rotate the downrod ball until the 
groove of the downrod ball lines up with the hook 
of the hanger bracket. (This will help balance the 
fan.)
