How to change to 150mm downrod
Warning!
Ensure that the mains supply is isolated before proceeding.
- Loosen the lower canopy screws and slide the canopy up the downrod.
- Disconnect the Brown (LF), Red (LR) and Blue (N) wires, which run up the downrod from the lower terminal block located just above fan motor body.
- Disconnect the Earth (Green/Yellow) wire from the lower mounting bracket which also runs up inside the downrod.
- Carefully remove the split pin and the downrod securing bolt.
- Loosen the upper canopy screws and slide
- canopy down the downrod.
- Carefully remove the split pin and downrod securing bolt and then disconnect the Earth wire.
- Carefully remove the existing downrod passing the disconnected feed wires through the rod along with the safety wire.
- Replace with the 150mm long downrod
- supplied.
- Pass the feed wires through the new Rod along with the safety wire.
- Replace the upper and lower downrod securing bolts and split pins.
- The feed wires will need to be cut and stripped to suit the shorter rod and then re-connected to the lower terminal block. Brown (LF), Red (LR) and Blue (N)
- Re-connect all Earth (Green/Yellow) wires.
- Because the shorter downrod has been required for our particular installation, it is recommended that the safety wire is reduced in length to protrude 75mm above the height of the 150mm downrod. The loop for the safety wire will need remaking by using a wire rope grip or crimp (Supplied by others). It is essential that the new safety wire loop will withstand the weight of the fan in the event of it falling.
It is important that all fixings must be tight before operating and should be checked annually.
