MOUNTING OPTIONS
If there is not an existing UL (cUL for Canadian Installation) listed
mounting box, then read the following instructions. Disconnect
the power by removing fuses or turning o circuit breakers.
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 the fan
(up to 15.9kg (35 pounds)). Do not use plastic outlet boxes.
Figures 1, 2 and 3 are examples of dierent ways to mount the
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
CAUTION: To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure you have
turned o the power at the main circuit panel.
WARNING: All set screws must be checked, and retightened where
necessary, before installation.
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” installation. The “close-to-ceiling” installation
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.

Standard Ceiling Installation
WARNING: All set screws must be checked, and retightened where necessary,
before installation.
Step 1. Pass the 120-volt supply wires through the center hole in the ceiling mounting bracket as
shown in (Fig. 5).
Step 2. Secure the ceiling mounting bracket to the ceiling outlet box with the screws
and washers provided with your outlet box.
Step 3. Remove the retaining clip and the hitch pin from the hanger ball/downrod assembly.
Remove the hanger ball from the hanger ball/downrod assembly by loosening the set screw
(do not remove) on the hanger ball, unscrewing and removing the cross pin, and unscrewing the
hanger ball from the downrod. (Fig. 6)
Step 4. Loosen the two set screws (do not remove) in the coupling on top of the motor
assembly. (Fig. 7)
Step 5. Carefully feed the electrical lead wires and safety cable from the coupling on top of the
motor assembly up through the downrod. Thread the downrod into the coupling on top of the
motor assembly until the hitch pin holes in the downrod and the hitch pin holes in the coupling
are aligned. (Fig. 7)
Step 6. Carefully insert the hitch pin through the holes in the coupling and the downrod. (Fig. 7)
NOTE: Be careful not to jam the hitch pin against the wiring inside of the downrod.
Insert the retaining clip through the hole near the end of the hitch pin until it snaps into its locked
position. (Fig. 7)

Make sure the cross pin is in the correct position. Tighten the cross pin. Tighten the set
screw on the hanger ball. Make sure that the wires are not twisted. (Fig. 8A)
Step 10. Lift the motor assembly into position and place the hanger ball into the ceiling
mounting bracket socket. Rotate the entire assembly until the “Check Tab” has dropped
into the “Registration Slot”and seats firmly. (Fig. 9)
The entire motor assembly should not rotate (left or right) when seated properly.

cause the fan to fall from the ceiling during operation. Take special care to
make sure this pin is reattached.
