PACKAGE CONTENTS

MOUNTING OPTIONS

To prevent electrical shock, ensure electricity has been turned off at the circuit breaker before beginning. Figure 1 is an example of how to mount the outlet box. If needed use A hardware to mount the outlet box to the ceiling joist.

INSTALLING THE MOUNTING BRACKET

ATTACHING THE FAN BLADES

1. Place the blade on the top of the housing. Align the holes in the blade with the fan motor assembly holes and secure with blade attachment screws. Use B hardware.
2. Repeat this procedure with the remaining blades.

HANGING THE FAN

1. Remove the hanger ball portion from the downrod/ hanger ball assembly by loosening the set screw in the hanger ball until the ball falls freely down the downrod. Remove the pin from the downrod, then remove the hanger ball. Retain the pin and hanger ball for reinstallation.
2. Remove the hairpin clip and clevis pin from the bottom of the downrod. Retain the pin and clip for reinstallation.
3. Loosen the two set screws in the downrod support of the motor assembly. Route the blue/ white, red, gray, yellow wires and safety cable through the downrod.
4. Thread downrod into the collar on top of the motor. Install the clevis pin by aligning the holes in the downrod support with holes in the downrod. Secure clevis pin with hairpin clip. Tighten the two set screws with nuts in the downrod support.
5. Slip the coupling cover, canopy screw cover (painted side face down), and canopy (opened side up) onto the downrod. Coupling cover goes all the way to the bottom.
   

6. Carefully reinstall the hanger ball onto the downrod, being sure that the cross pin is in the correct position, the setscrew is tightened and wires are not twisted. A loose set screw could create fan wobble.

8. Secure the safety cable into the structure beams using the wood screw, washers, and spring washers provided. Use C hardware.
   

NOTE: A Safety cable is required for all installations in Canada. Safety cable is required for ceiling fan and light combinations over 35 lbs. in both flush and downrod models in the United States.
