GETTING STARTED
FAN INSTALLATION
Using Existing Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
After turning the power OFF at its source (either the circuit
breaker or fuse box), lower the old fi xture and disconnect the
wiring. The Candelier is not to be supported by the ceiling
box. It must be directly mounted to the support structure
over an approved electrical outlet box. Please consult a
licensed electrician to confi rm the right support structure
is being used.
Installing a New Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
If you do not have an existing fi xture located where you
wish to place your Casablanca Candelier, an approved
ceiling fi xture outlet box must be installed and wired.
NOTE: The weight of this fan is approximately 150 pounds.
WARNING:
The Candelier must be mounted directly to a
structural member of the ceiling. It cannot be
mounted directly to the outlet box.
Step 1a. Hold the crossbar hanging bracket up to the ceiling.
Use a pen or pencil to mark screw placement through the two
holes in the bracket. With a 9/32 inch drill bit, drill two holes
angled outward (away from the fi xture) at approximately a
four-degree angle.
Step 1b. Insert lag screws into the hanging bracket holes at a
four-degree angle. Tighten bolts until they are secure against
the ceiling.
CROSSBAR HANGING BRACKET INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only the
mounting hardware provided with the approved
outlet box to install the crossbar mounting
bracket.
CEILING HARDWARE (not to scale)
NOTE: If you have removed an old fan fi xture, check the outlet
box to ensure that a joist or beam supports it across the upper
surface. If not, a 2 x 4 stud must be installed.
