You can assemble your fan for standard mounting (steps 3-1 – 3-2) or
for low profile mounting (steps 3-3 – 3-4).
3-1. To assemble fan to hang down from a flat or angled ceiling, insert
the downrod through the canopy. Feed the wires from the fan
through the downrod.
3-2. Loosen the square head set screw on the adapter to install the
pipe and ball assembly.
Note:
When the pipe and ball assembly
is fully installed, 2-3 threads on the pipe will still be visible; this is
normal. Securely retighten the set screw with a wrench or pliers.
Skip to Step 3-5.
CAUTION:
The adapter has a special coating on the threads. Do
not remove this coating; the coating prevents the downrod from
unscrewing. Once assembled, do not remove the downrod.
Note:
For low profile mounting, the downrod is replaced with the low
profile washer. See Steps 3-3 – 3-4.
3-3. Place the low profile washer into the canopy. Be sure the green
ground wire is pointing up toward the ceiling.
3-4. Align the holes in the washer with the holes in the adapter.
Assemble securely with three #8-32 x 3/4” screws.
3-5. Raise the fan and align the slots in the canopy with the tabs on the
ceiling plate.
WARNING:
Fan may fall if not assembled as directed in these
installation instructions.
