INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

I. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

A. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY BEFORE ASSEMBLING AND

INSTALLING THE COUPLER. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

B. DANGER: HIGH VOLTAGE! Household electrical power can cause serious injury or death.

Disconnect source of electrical power to the ceiling fan by removing fuse or switching off circuit breaker.

II. PREPARATION

A. If attaching new downrod to downrod on

existing ceiling fan, disconnect source of electrical

power to the ceiling fan by removing fuse or

switching off circuit breaker. (See Fig. 1.)

WARNING: Failure to disconnect power supply prior

to installation may result in serious injury.

B. Lower canopy from the hanging bracket. (See Fig. 2

for example.)

C. Disconnect existing wiring between ceiling fan and

supply at outlet box. Remove hanging ball from

hanging bracket and lower ceiling fan. (See Fig. 3 for

example.)

D. Remove original downrod from top of motor

housing. Pull all wires through original downrod so

downrod is free of all wiring.

III. COUPLER ASSEMBLY

A. Loosen set screws on coupler. (See Fig. 4.)

IMPORTANT: Set screws (on coupler) must be loosened

to prevent scratching downrod(s).

B. Take threaded end of original downrod and thread

into coupler until holes in downrod align with holes

in coupler. Locate the bigger of the two holes at that

end of the coupler and then insert one of the Allen

screws provided into the bigger (non-threaded) hole.

Push Allen screw through coupler into threaded hole on

the opposite side and tighten completely. (See Fig. 5.)

C. Insert non-threaded end of new downrod into other

end of coupler by twisting and turning until holes in

downrod and coupler align. Insert the other Allen

screw provided through the bigger (non-threaded)

hole and then push Allen screw through to threaded

hole on the opposite side. Tighten Allen screw

completely. (See Fig. 6.)

D. Now, tighten both set screws on the coupler securely

(See Fig. 7.)

WARNING: Failure to tighten set screws (on coupler)

completely could result in the fan becoming loose and

possibly falling.

E. Thread safety cable and electrical wires through,

starting at the threaded end of the new downrod

and pull extra wire slack from the upper end of the

original downrod.

F. Raise ceiling fan to hanging bracket and re-install the

canopy. Tighten all applicable screws securely.
