ball (Figure 10) on the downrod as
follows. Route the three 80” motor
leads through the hanger ball and
slide the hanger ball over the
downrod. Position the pin through the
two holes in the downrod and align
the hanger ball so the pin is captured
in the groove in the top of the hanger
ball. Pull the hanger ball up tight
against the pin and securely tighten
