ASSEMBLING BALL HANGER TO MOTOR ASSEMBLY

Ceiling height and the desired distance above the floor the fan is to be located will dictate the length of ball hanger
downrod (or stem) required to hang the motor assembly.

Installation on ceilings 8-10 feet high can be accomplished with the ball hanger downrod (stem) supplied. The fan is
shipped from the factory with a 3-1/2” ball hanger downrod (stem) and is designed for ceilings 8’ high.

For higher ceiling applications, replace the 3-1/2” downrod (stem) with a Marley Engineered Products Model C902 stem acces­sory (downrod) in 12”, 18”, 24” and 36” lengths. These downrods are offered in a color to match each Marley Engineered
Products fan and are available from your local Marley Engineered Products distributor. Additional installation instructions are
included with each downrod (stem) accessory kit.

1. Guide the three leads coming from the top of the motor assembly through the small end of the ceiling canopy and then
through the bottom end of the ball hanger downrod and out the top. (See Fig. 2.)

2. Remove the thru pin from the downrod mounting hub (if installed). If
thru pin is not installed, you will find it and the cotter pin in the fan’s
hardware bag.

3. Unscrew the two set screws in the downrod mounting hub just far
enough to prevent prematurely dropping the downrod (stem).

4. Place the downrod (stem) into the downrod mounting hub, being
careful not to cut or pinch the leads.

5. Align the thru pin holes in the downrod mounting hub with the
thru pin holes in the downrod (stem).

6. Insert the thru pin through the thru pin holes in the assembled
downrod (stem) and downrod mounting hub. Insert the cotter pin
through the hole in the end of the thru pin. Separate the cotter pin
legs and fold them back to prevent removal of the cotter pin and
secure the thru pin (See Fig. 4). Some units will employ a hair
spring cotter pin which once snapped in place will not require
bending the pin’s legs back.

7. Uniformly retighten the set screws to secure the downrod (stem) in
a vertical position. Failure to do this could result in a crooked fan
installation.

HANGING FAN MOTOR AND MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Lift motor with ball hanger assembly attached and position into ball hanger bracket, making sure slot in ball hanger locks
onto ball hanger bracket’s ball locking stud. Connect motor leads to 120V, 60 cycle supply wiring in accordance with
FIgures 5 and 13. Connect ground wire from supply to green ground wire on top of ball hanger. The white lead from the
motor is connected to the white supply wire. The black lead from the motor is connected to the black supply wire to permit
fan operation. Both the black and blue fan motor leads are connected to the black supply wire when a light kit is to be
installed, permitting both fan and light operation. (See Figure 5.) Note that connections should be made outside the canopy.
In some cases, it may be necessary to splice additional wire to existing wiring in order to make connections.

Once the electrical connections have been made, carefully position the leads with the connections pointed upwards
inside the canopy or outlet box. Position the ground wire (green and bare connected wires) and the white connected
wires on one side of the outlet box and/or canopy; the black connected wires on the opposite. Slide the canopy up to the
ceiling making sure the canopy mounting screw heads pass through the key-way slots. Rotate the canopy towards the
narrow end of the key-way and tighten the canopy mounting screws. See Fig. 5 & 6.

ASSEMBLE SWITCH CUP TO FAN

1. Connect the switch cup plug to the fans connector plug, taking care
to align the guides in each part. This ensures proper electrical
circuit connection (matching lead colors).

2. Remove one screw from the switch cup mounting plate, and loosen
the remaining two screws.

3. Position the switch cup onto fan’s remaining two switch cup mounting
plate screws and twist to latch cup in place. With cup latched at
extreme ends of latching cutouts, replace and secure the removed
screw into the switch cup mounting plate through the cup’s screw
hole. Tighten the other two screws loosened in Step 2.

4. Reconnect the supply power to the fan circuit. Make sure fan’s pull
chain switch is in the off position (hub is not turning) following
connection of the power and prior to performing the next steps.

BLADE ASSEMBL Y INSTRUCTIONS

1. Open the motor assembly carton and remove the blades carefully, being sure not to scratch the factory finish. If the blades are
preassembled, proceed to the next section; if not, proceed as follows:

2. In the carton, locate the hardware bag and blade arms. (See Fig. 8)

3. Remove the truss-headed machine screws and washers from the hardware bag. Some assemblies may not require washers.

4. Insert screws (10-24 x 3/8”) through the washers, blade and into the threaded emboss on the blade arm. Assemble, but
do not tighten.

5. After all screws are in place in the blade assembly, alternately tighten each screw evenly until the assembly is secure.

6. Check assembled blade for looseness between the blade arm and blade. If present, continue tightening alternate screws until
secure.

7. Repeat the above procedure for the remaining blades and hardware.

8. Once the blade assembly is complete, proceed with installation.

ATTACHING FAN BLADES TO MOTOR HUB (See Fig. 10)

This unit is designed with the capability of being a four or five bladed fan depending on the customer’s preference.
Once the number of blades to be installed has been decided on, perform the following steps carefully to
minimize fan wobble and insure proper fan balance.

1. Please find embossed onto the motor hub the numbers 4, 5 and their guide lines. The 4 and 5 represent the number of
blades to be installed and the guide lines locate the specific screw holes to be used for that blade combination. On
some models this may be in the form of square holes (used for four blade installations) and round holes (used for five
blade installations). (See Fig. 9)

2. First remove and discard the transport bumpers and screws. Position the arm of the assembled blade on the
bottom of the hub. Using the guide lines align the two tapped holes in the hub with the two holes in the blade arm.
Insert the two 10-32 truss head screws into these holes. Tighten the screws down and then back them off slightly
(Approx. 1

1

⁄2 turns).

FAN OPERATION

This ceiling fan has 3-speeds that are controlled by a pull-chain switch. Switch operation is OFF - HI - MED - LOW. The
speed is easily changed by pulling the chain to select desired speed.

REVERSIBLE OPERATION

This ceiling fan is reversible. A slide switch installed either on the bottom of the motor assembly or on the side of the
switch cap will reverse the direction of rotation. This will allow downward movement of air under the fan for summertime
operation, or by reversing the direction of rotation, upward movement of air in the winter to recirculate hot air trapped at
ceiling level. DAMP LOCATION FANS MAY NOT BE REVERSIBLE.

LUBRICATION

The fan motor is constructed with sealed ball bearings which do not require lubrication during the life of the motor.

LIGHT KITS

Accessory light kits are available from your Marley Engineered Products Fan distributor. The wiring instructions for these kits
are packed in the light kit carton.

— 6 —

3. Repeat the above procedure for the remaining blades.

4. Without delay, turn the fan on high speed for approximately one (1) minute.

5. Turn the fan off and let it stop by itself. DO NOT TOUCH BLADES OR HUB until the fan has stopped completely.

6. Being careful not to disturb the blade arm location on the motor hub, tighten all screws on the hub. This procedure
allows final positioning of the blades to eliminate fan wobble. If wobble persists, loosen blades and repeat Steps 4
through 6.

NOTE: IF AFTER PERFORMING THE ABOVE PROCEDURE A WOBBLE IS STILL

APPARENT, SWITCH ONE PAIR OF ADJACENT BLADES WITHOUT
COMPLETELY TIGHTENING THE SCREWS. REPEAT STEPS 4 THRU 6.

Use only Light Kits marked “Suitable for use in Damp locations” with Damp location fans.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHANGE FAN DIRECTION WHILE UNIT IS OPERATING!
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN OR SERVICE YOUR CEILING FAN, DISCONNECT ELECTRIC POWER
SUPPLYING THE FAN OUTLET BOX TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY.

GENERAL INSTALLATION (OPTIONS)

Various options for installing and operating these ceiling fans and accessories are available. Wiring diagrams are shown
on the following pages. Refer to the instructions included with the light kit and/or speed control where applicable.

OPTION #1 (Fig. 11) Fan and light controlled at unit.

This installation is the simplest with all controls mounted on the fan as shipped. The light kit, if used, is controlled with the
pull-chain switch on the light kit.

OPTION #2 (Fig. 12) Fan controlled at unit. Light controlled at wall with switch or dimmer.

This option is the same as Option #1, except the light is controlled from an existing wall-mounted switch or light dimmer.
This option is designed for installations in which the fan is installed in place of a ceiling light or chandelier which was
controlled by a wall switch. No additional wiring is necessary.

OPTION #3 (Fig. 13) Light controlled at unit. Fan controlled at wall by a Speed Control.

This option utilizes a speed control (See Chart 1) to operate the fan from a remote wall location. The light is controlled at
the fan. The wall control replaces the existing wall switch. No additional wiring is necessary for this installation. The Fan
switch on the unit must be left in the high speed position for the control to function properly. We suggest you cut off the
chain of the pull-chain switch after the high speed position is established on the fan.

OPTION #4 (Fig. 14) Light controlled at wall. Fan controlled at wall by a Speed Control.

This option can be used when the fan is installed in place of an existing ceiling light kit. A speed control (See Chart 1) will
replace the light switch (or dimmer) in the wall that controlled the ceiling light. An additional box and switch must be
installed for this option. Follow all state and/or local building and electrical codes for this installation.
