INSTALLING THE FAN
All electrical work should only be undertaken after disconnection of the power by removing fuses or turning off the circuit
breaker to ensure all pole isolation of the electrical supply.
Your fan is a drop rod fan in this situation the drop rod assembly is used to lower the fan down from it's mounting position
slightly. Extension rods, ranging from 30,5 cm (12") to 183 cm (72"), are available if you need to lower your fan further. (This
is normally the case in conservatories or rooms with very high ceilings.)
HANGER BRACKETINSTALLATION
The hanger bracket should be screwed on to a firm flat surface. The fixing
location must be able to withstand ten times the static weight of the fan.
If you have any doubts as to the ability of your intended fixing location to
be able to withstand this loading. Please contact our service help- line or
another competent authority to advise you. In most situation two wood
screws screwed into a wooden joist is more than adequate to support your
ceiling fan.
The hanger bracket should be screwed onto the joist with the two wood
screws provided. The washers provided should go in the following sequence:
Screw head > round washer > spring washer>Hanger bracket > Ceiling.
Screw the
hanger bracket to the ceiling and make sure all connections are secure to
prevent the fan from falling. Fixings must screw into a joist and not just the
plasterboard. Loosen the two canopy screws from the hanger bracket.
INSTALLING CANOPY AND DROP ROD ONTO THE FAN
1
Unscrew the screw on the drop rod hanger ball, then
loosen the hanger ball. A "BALL PIN" will be seen on
the drop rod, remove it and the hanger ball from the
rod.
Remove the cotter pin and split pin from the drop rod
boss of the fan. If a longer drop rod 30,5 cm (12") to 183
cm (72"), is going to be used transfer the ball joint and
the earth wire to the longer rod.
