6. Insert bolt through the yoke and downrod, making
certain you do not damage the wires. Once the bolt
is in place, re-insert the cotter pin and bend the
longer side backwards so it will not slide out.
7. Tighten the set screws to 10 foot/lbs. of torque.
8. Slide the lower canopy (2) over the wires, safety
cable and downrod (1) until it sits on top of the yoke,
and tighten the set screw.
9. Slide the upper canopy (4) over the wires, safety
cable and downrod, and do not tighten the set
screw.
10. Attach rubber grommet and support bracket to the
top of the downrod using bolt, cotter pin and nut.
Make certain you do not damage the wires inside
the downrod. Tighten the nut to 10 foot/lbs. of torque,
re-insert the split pin and bend the longer side
backwards so the pin will not slide out.
11. Return to the installation instructions.
NOTE: The shorter downrod, when installed
properly, is a minimum 10' above the floor level.
It is critical that the J hook and nut adjustment
are done so that the blades will be a minimum
12" from the ceiling. If your ceiling is less
than 12', then the hook and downrod must be
recessed into the ceiling so that the blades
are mounted 10' above the floor level to meet
OSHA standards.
WARNING: Do not attach foreign objects to the
blades of the ceiling fan.
WARNING: Do not use gasoline, benzene,
thinner, harsh cleaners, etc., which are
dangerous and will damage the ceiling fan.
CAUTION! If you see noticeable vibration,
wobbling or wear, the fan should be removed
from service and repaired or replaced by
a qualified maintenance technician or
electrician.
