You can assemble your fan for standard mounting (steps 4-1 – 4-3) or 
for low prole mounting (steps 4-4 – 4-6). 
4-1.  If your ceiling is 9’ or higher, remove the 3” downrod pipe from 
the black ball. Remove the screw and push the pipe up through 
the ball. Remove the cross bar. read the cross bar through the 
longer (6”) pipe and insert the pipe into the black ball. Tighten the 
screw completely.
4-2.  Insert the downrod through the canopy and canopy trim ring. 
Feed the wires from the fan through the downrod on one side of 
the pin in the ball.
4-3.  Loosen the square head set screw on the adapter to install the 
pipe and ball assembly. Note: When the pipe and ball assembly 
is fully installed, 2-3 threads on the pipe will still be visible; this is 
normal. Securely retighten the set screw with a wrench or pliers. 
Skip to Step 4-7.
 
CAUTION: e adapter has a special coating on the threads. Do 
not remove this coating; the coating prevents the downrod from 
unscrewing. Once assembled, do not remove the downrod.
4-4.  Remove the set screw from the adapter. 
    Note: For low prole mounting, the downrod is replaced with the 
low prole washer. See Steps 4-4 – 4-6.
4-5.   Place the low prole washer (lip up) into the canopy. Be sure the 
green ground wire is pointing up toward the ceiling.
4-6.  Align the holes in the washer with the holes in the adapter. 
Assemble securely with three locking screws. 
4-7.  Raise the fan and place the hook on the ceiling plate through the 
U-shaped hole in the rim. 
 
WARNING:  Fan may fall if not assembled as directed in these 
installation instructions.
