3 • Assembling and Hanging the Fan
Steps 3-4 – 3-5
Low Profile Washer
You can assemble your fan for standard mounting (steps 3-1 – 3-2) or
for low profile mounting (steps 3-3 – 3-5).
3-1. To assemble fan to hang down from a flat or angled ceiling, insert
the downrod through the canopy and canopy trim ring. Feed the
wires from the fan through the downrod.
3-2. Loosen the 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 3-6.
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.
3-3. Remove the set screw from the adapter.
3-4. Place the low profile washer (lip up) into the canopy. Be sure the
green ground wire is pointing up toward the ceiling.
Note:
For low profile mounting, the downrod is replaced with the
low profile washer. See Steps 3-3 – 3-5.
3-5. Align the holes in the washer with the holes in the adapter.
Assemble securely with three #8-32 x 3/4” screws.
3-6. Raise the fan and place the hook on the ceiling plate through the
U-shaped hole in the rim. Go to
