Hanging the Fan

REMEMBER

 to turn off the power, Follow 

the steps below to hang your fan properly.

NOTE:

 This ceiling fan is supplied with two 

types of hanging assemblies: the standard 
ceiling installation using the downrod with 
ball and socket mounting, and the "close-to-
ceiling" mounting. The "close-to-ceiling" 
mounting is recommended in rooms with less 
than 8-feet ceilings or in areas where 
additional space is desired from the floor to 
the fan blades. When using the standard 
downrod installation, the distance from the 
ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades will be 
approximately 12 inches. The "close-to-
ceiling" installation reduces the distance 
from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan 
blades to approximately 8 inch.

types of installation.

MOUNTING

3. Route the wires exiting the top of the fan motor 

through the canopy, and then through the 
ball/downrod assembly (Figure 6)

4. Align the holes at the bottom of the downrod 

with holes in the collar on top of the motor 
housing (Figure 6). Carefully insert the bolt 
through the holes in the collar and downrod.  
Be careful not to jam the bolt against the 
wiring inside the downrod.  Insert clevis pin 
and bend to ensure security, as noted in the 
circle inset of Figure 6

1. Remove the mounting plate from the canopy 

by loosening the four screws on the top of the 
canopy.  Remove the two non-slotted screws 
and loosen the slotted screws.  This will 
enable you to remove the mounting plate. 
(Figure 5)
