How to Put Your Ceiling Fan Together
1. Remove the hanger ball by loosening the setscrew
in the hanger ball until the ball falls freely down the
downrod (Figure 1). Remove the pin from the
downrod, then remove the hanger ball. Retain the
pin and hanger ball for reinstallation in step 5.
2. Unscrew the two upper setscrews (Figure 2) until
they clear the inside of the motor coupling. Then
separate, untwist and unkink the three 80” motor
leads. Route the motor lead wires through the
downrod. Align the clevis pin holes in the downrod
with the holes in the motor coupling. Install the
clevis pin and secure with the hairpin clip (Figure
2). The clevis pin must go through the holes in the
motor coupling and the holes in the downrod. Be
sure to push the straight leg of the hairpin clip
through the hole near the end of the clevis pin until
the curved portion of the hairpin clip snaps around
the clevis pin. The hairpin clip must be properly
installed to prevent the clevis pin from working
loose. Pull on the downrod to make sure the clevis
pin is properly installed.
3. Tighten the two upper setscrews (Figure 2)
securely while pulling up on the downrod.
NOTE: The setscrews must be properly installed
as described above, or fan wobble could result.
4. Place the ceiling cover over the downrod, making
sure that the large opening faces upward
(Figure 3).
5. Reinstall the hanger ball on the downrod as
follows (Figure 4) . Route the three 80” motor
leads through the hanger ball. Position the pin
through the two holes in the downrod and align the
hanger ball so the pin is captured in the groove in
the top of the hanger ball. Pull the hanger ball up
tight against the pin and securely tighten the
setscrew in the hanger ball. A loose setscrew
could create fan wobble.
6. The fan comes with blue, black and white leads
that are 80-inches long. Before installing the fan,
measure up approximately 6 to 9-inches above top
of hanger ball/downrod assembly. Cut off excess
leads and strip back insulation 1/2-inch from end of
leads.

It is critical that the clevis pin in the motor coupling
is properly installed and the setscrews are securely
tightened. Failure to verify that the pin and setscrews
are properly installed (as shown in Figures 2 & 3)
could result in the fan falling.
