2. Turn the base cover upside down and place the round weighted insert into the base cover.
3. Insert the threaded end of the L-shaped locking lever into the hole of the washer, round weighted insert and through the base cover.
4. Whilst holding the base cover and round weighted insert with one hand, connect the pole to the base, sliding the L-shaped locking lever into the bottom of the pole with you other.

Push the pole ring down until it sits directly on the base.
Fan head assembly
You are now ready to assemble the fan head
1. Unscew rear grill mounting nut (D) before positioning the rear grill (F) over the motor shaft (G) making certain that the notches at the top and bottom of the rear grill, fit over the prongs on the motor housing (H).
2. Secure the rear grill in its place using the rear grill mounting nut (D). Turn this nut clockwise and tighten firmly.
3. Slide the fan blade (B) with the hollowed interior of the blade facing toward the rear grill, firmly onto the motor shaft. The top of the motor shaft should lie even with the centre of the fan blade.
4. Now use the securing screw (C) (already attached to the Fan Blade) to lock the blade into place. Tighten the screw into the side hole of the fan blade, against the motor shaft, until both the blade and screw are secure.

Then, holding the front grill against the rear grill, push the black grill ring (E) into place at the top and bottom of the fan. (Push directly on the black grill ring, not on the grills themselves). Finish securing the grill ring in the same manner until both grills are joined underneath the black ring.
