MOUNTING OPTIONS
If there isn’t an existing UL (cUL for Canadian Installation) listed
mounting box, then read the following instructions. Disconnect
Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use
appropriate fasteners and building materials. The outlet box
and its support must be able to fully support the full weight of

outlet box.
NOTE: If you are installing the ceiling fan on a sloped (vaulted)
ceiling, you may need a longer downrod to maintain proper
clearance between the tip of the blade and the ceiling. A
minimum clearance of 12" is suggested for optimal operation.
NOTE: Depending on the location you have selected for
installation, you may need to purchase and install a “Joist
Hanger” for the support of the outlet box. Make sure the joist
hanger you purchase has been designed for use with ceiling
fans. (Fig. 4)

HANGING THE FAN
To properly install your ceiling fan, follow the steps below.
Step 1. Before attaching fan to outlet box (not included), ensure the outlet box is securely
fastened to at least two points to a structural ceiling member (a loose box will cause the
fan to wobble). Pass the 120 volt supply wires from the ceiling outlet box through the
center of the ceiling mounting bracket. Install mounting bracket to outlet box in ceiling
using the screws and washers included with the outlet box. (Fig. 5)
Step 2. Remove the hairpin and clevis pin from the downrod assembly, retain for later use.
Remove the hanger ball from the downrod assembly by loosening set screw, removing
NOTE: Make sure to keep loosened hardware separate to avoid confusion during
installation.
Step 3. Loosen the two set screws on the motor coupling. (Fig. 7)

HANGING THE FAN (continued)
Step 4. Carefully feed fan wires and safety cable up through the downrod.
Thread the downrod onto the motor coupling until the clevis pin holes are
aligned. Next, replace the clevis pin and hairpin, then tighten both set screws.
(Fig. 8)
Step 5. Slip the coupling cover, canopy hole cover and canopy onto the
downrod. Carefully reinstall the hanger ball onto the downrod. Make sure the
cross pin is in the correct position and the set screw is tight and the wires are
not twisted. (Fig. 9)
Step 6. Now lift the motor body into position and place the hanger ball into
the mounting bracket. Rotate until the “Check Tab” has dropped into the
“Registration Slot” and seats firmly. (Fig. 10) The entire motor body should
not rotate if this is done correctly.
WARNING: Failure to properly seat the “Check Tab” can damage the ceiling
fan during operation.

INSTALLATION OF SAFETY SUPPORT
(required for Canadian installation ONLY)
A safety support cable is provided to help prevent the ceiling fan from faIling, please
install it as follows.
Step 1. Drive a wood screw and washers into the side of the brace that holds the outlet
box. Leave 3mm (1/8") of space between the support brace and the washer. (Fig. 11)
Step 2. Insert the safety cable through the mounting bracket and one of the holes in
the outlet box into the ceiling. Adjust the length of the safety cable to reach the screw
and washers by pulling the extra cable through the cable clamp until the overall length is
correct, put the end of the cable back through the cable clamp, forming a loop at the end
of the cable. Tighten the cable clamp securely. Now, put the loop in the end of the safety
cable over the wood screw and under the washer. Tighten the wood screw securely.
(Fig. 12)
NOTE: Although the safety support cable is required for Canadian installations only.
It’s a good idea to make the attachment with any installation.
