6. Fan Assembly. (cont.)
Locate canopy cover in hardware pack. Slide yoke
cover, canopy cover and canopy over downrod.
[Refer to diagram 3.] (Note: Canopy cover must be
turned with shiny side toward the motor housing.)
Thread safety cable and wires through hanging ball
and then slide hanging ball over downrod--the top
of the downrod should be noted as having a set
screw hole; use this hole when setting the set
screw. Insert stop pin into top of downrod and raise
hanging ball. Be sure stop pin aligns with slots on
the inside of the hanging ball. Tighten set screw
securely. [Refer to diagram 4.]
WARNING: Failure to tighten set screw (on hanging
ball) completely could result in the fan becoming
loose and possibly falling.
NOTE: The important safety precautions and
instructions appearing in the manual are not meant
to cover all possible conditions and situations that
may occur. It must be understood that common sense
and caution are necessary factors in the installation
and operation of this fan.
With the hanging bracket secured to the outlet box
and able to support the fan, you are now ready to
hang your fan. Grab the fan firmly with two hands.
Slide downrod through opening in hanging
bracket and let hanging ball rest on the hanging
bracket. Turn the hanging ball slot until it lines up
with the hanging bracket tab. [Refer to diagram 5.]
WARNING: Failure to align slot in hanging ball with
tab in hanging bracket may result in serious injury
or death.
Tip: Seek the help of another person to hold the
stepladder in place and to help lift the fan up to
you once you are set on the ladder.
Find a secure attachment point (wood ceiling
joist highly recommended) and secure safety
cable. It will be necessary to use a heavy duty
wood screw, washer and lock washer (not
supplied) with the safety cable loop. [Refer to
diagram 5.] If necessary, adjust the loop at the
end of the safety cable. The loop at the end of
the safety cable should just fit over the threads
on the wood screw. Test safety cable by pulling
on loose end of cable with pliers. If the safety cable
slips, the loop must be adjusted tighter. Extra
cable slack can be left in ceiling area.
