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-foot 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 9 inches.
Once you have decided which ceiling installation
you will use, proceed with the following
instructions. Where necessary, each section of the
instructions will note the different procedures to
follow for the two types of installation.

Align the holes at the bottom of the downrod
with the holes in the coupling on top of the
motor housing (Figure 7). Carefully insert the
clevis pin through the holes in the collar and
downrod. Be careful not to jam the clevis pin
against the wiring inside the downrod. Insert
the cotter pin through the hole near the end of
the clevis pin until it snaps into its locked
position, as noted in the circle inset of Fig. 7.
Tighten two set screws on top of the fan motor
