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" mounting. The
"close-to-ceiling" mounting is
recommended in rooms with less
than 8-foot ceilings or in areas
where additional space is desired
from the floor to the fan blades.
When using standard downrod
installation, the distance from the
ceiling to the bottom of the fan
blades will be approximately 15
inches. The "close-to-ceiling"
installation reduces the distance
from the ceiling to the bottom of the
fan blades to approximately 9 inches.
Once you have decided which ceiling
installation you will use, proceed with
the following instructions. Where
necessary. each section of the
instructions will note the different
procedures to follow for the two types of
installation.

MOUNTING

Remove the canopy ring from the
canopy by turning the ring to the right

2. Remove the mounting plate from
the canopy by loosening the four screws

Route the wires through the canopy and
then through the ball/downrod assembly

Loosen, but do not remove, the set
screws on the collar on the top of the
motor housing.
5. Align the holes at the bottom of the
downrod with holes in the collar on top
of the motor housing (Figure 7).
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.
