Fan Assembly With Longer Downrod (Optional) - Craftmade Fluid FLD54 Guia De Instalacion

5. Fan Assembly with Longer Downrod (Optional).

This fan has been preassembled for use with a
6in. downrod. If you wish to use the preassembled
6in. downrod, please proceed to Section 6 on
page 5; otherwise continue with instructions below.
If you wish to use a longer downrod (sold
separately) and extend the hanging length of your
fan, the preassembled downrod must first be
removed from the motor housing. In order to use a
longer downrod, remove hanging ball from
downrod provided by loosening set screw on
hanging ball. Lower hanging ball and remove stop
pin. Then slide hanging ball off of downrod. [Refer
to diagram 1.]
Remove canopy and yoke cover from downrod.
Loosen 2 yoke set screws at top of motor housing
yoke and remove pin and clip from yoke. Then, turn
downrod counterclockwise to free from motor
housing.
Determine the length of downrod you wish to use.
Thread safety cable and electrical wires through
threaded end of longer downrod and pull extra
wire slack from the upper end of the downrod.
[Refer to diagram 2.]
Thread longer downrod into the motor housing
yoke until holes for pin and clip in downrod align
with holes in yoke--make sure wires do not get
twisted. Re-insert pin and clip that were previously
removed. Tighten yoke set screws securely. [Refer
to diagram 2.]
Slide yoke cover and canopy over downrod.[Refer
to diagram 3.]
Thread safety cable and wires through hanging
ball; 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.
