FAN PREPARATION
GETTING STARTED
Installing a New Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
If you do not have an existing fixture located where you wish
to place your Casablanca fan, an approved ceiling fixture
outlet box must be installed and wired.
Using Existing Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
After turning the power OFF at its source (either circuit
breaker or fuse box), lower the old fixture and disconnect
the wiring. Check the ceiling fixture outlet box to be sure
that it is marked ‘Approved for ceiling fan mounting’. If it is
not, a new box must be installed.
warning: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
or personal injury, mount to outlet box marked ac-
ceptable for ceiling fan support using the mounting
hardware provided with the outlet box.

Prepare for fan installation as follows:
Step A. Route the wires from the motor through the
Perma•Lock™ downrod and ball assembly.
Step B. Using the provided allen wrench, loosen the set screw
several turns to allow installation of the downrod. Thread the
downrod into the motor coupling until it stops turning, this
will take at least four and a half full turns.
Step C. Securely tighten the set screw with the provided allen
wrench to ensure safe operation of your fan.
Tip: The downrod has a tapered thread
that is designed to lock completely when
correctly installed.
CAUTION: Failure to fully lock in the down-
rod before securely tightening the allen set
screw may cause the fan to separate from
the downrod during normal operation!
