SAFE USE
INTRODUCTION
• The blades in each pack are matched for equal weight to
assure smooth fan operation. If more than one fan is being
installed, be careful not to mix blades from different
cartons.
• Inspect the contents of your carton for possible shipping
or handling damage. If parts are missing or damaged,
call 1-888-227-2178.
• It is always a good idea to have an assistant to help with
the installation.
• When cleaning, painting, or working near your fan, be
very careful of the fan and blades. Always turn the power
OFF to the ceiling fan before working on it or replacing
lightbulbs.
• Never insert anything into the path of the fan blades while
the fan is in operation.
• Never install a fan over a pool or spa.
• Never operate a fan that has been damaged in anyway.
Contact Casablanca Fan Company by calling 1-888-227-
2178, or contact your local authorized Casablanca dealer
for assistance in obtaining service.
BEFOREYOU START
• CAUTION: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK! Installation is to be in accordance with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-1999, and local codes. All wiring must be performed in accordance with national and local electrical
codes. If you are unfamiliar with the wiring codes, you shoulduse a qualified electrician. To avoid overheating and possible
damage to other equipment, do not install control to a receptacle, fluorescent light fixture, motor operated appliance, or
transformer-supplied appliance.
• This fan is designed to be installed on an existing electrical outlet box. The outlet box must be UL Listed for ceiling fan
installations. If it is not, a new box must be installed. Casablanca extension poles are available for sloped or high ceiling
installations.
• This ceiling fan requires a grounded electrical supply of 120 VAC, 60 Hz and a minimum 15 amp circuit. The maximum
current requirement for the fan with light fixture is 3 amps. The fan uses about 1 amp or 100 watts. Maximum light
current is about 2 amps or 240 watts of lighting.
• Where wire nuts are employed, be sure all bare wires are within the connectors. When installing the canopy hatch, make
sure all wires are within the canopy and that no wires are being pinched.
• WARNING: Do not bend the blade brackets when installing the brackets, balancing the blades or cleaning the fan. Do
not insert foreign objects in between the rotating fan blades.
• WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this fan with any solid state speed control device. Use
only the control provided with or recommended for this fan.
Unpacking
Before assembling and installing your ceiling fan, remove all parts from the shipping cartons and check them against the
parts listed in the parts guide. Before discarding packaging material, be certain that all parts have been removed.
For best performance and for your warranty to be valid,
use only genuine Casablanca blades, light fixtures, and accessories.

MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS
Before mounting your Casablanca fan, read the following helpful recommendations. The location of the fan, air circulation,
and fan size are all important factors to consider before installation.
Location
Ceiling fans have practical uses in almost every room in your home. We suggest
you follow these mounting recommendations as you decide where to install
your Casablanca fan.
• For safety reasons, the fan blades must be a minimum of 7' above the
floor.
• Do not locate the fan in a doorway or above a swinging door.
• In bedrooms, fans work best when mounted above the foot of the bed.
• Over pool tables, be sure to provide plenty of clearance to avoid damage
from pool cues.
• In kitchens be sure to allow for open cupboard doors to clear the fan blades.
• Do not install a fan close to or over a pool or spa. High humidity combined with corrosive gases will destroy the finish
and warp the blades.
Fan Size
Variable fan speed capability permits the use of a full-size 52" fan even in smaller rooms. For very large rooms, two fans
may be needed.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
7' minimum
When to Use Extension Poles
For optimum performance and appearance, an extension
pole should be used with your Casablanca fan when
installing on high (cathedral) ceilings or sloped ceilings.
Casablanca offers standard poles in increments of 6" up
to 5'. Custom poles are available in lengths up to 9'9". See
your Authorized Casablanca Dealer for details.
NOTE:Fan may wobble or vibrate if pole length is not long
enough and inside blade is too close to downslope or side
wall. Extending pole length will usually solve problem.
Calculation of Ceiling Angle
Use the tear-off Ceiling Angle Template card inserted in
this manual. It provides you with a simple “go” or “no-go”
for installing your fan on a sloped ceiling.
Blades must be a
minimum of 7 feet
above the floor

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 fixture and disconnect
the wiring. Check the ceiling fixture outlet box to be sure
it is marked “Approved for Ceiling Fan Mounting.” If it is
not, a new box must be installed.
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.
NOTE: The weight of this fan is 25 pounds.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
personal injury, mount to outlet box marked
“Acceptable Fan Support of 22.7 kg (50 lbs.) or
less” using the mounting hardware provided with
the outlet box.
Step 1a. Remove the knockout plug in the center of the
outlet box or drill a ½" hole for the lag screw to pass
through. Then drill a ¼" guide hole into the joist or beam
to a depth of 3 inches.
Step 1b. Route the outlet box wires through the keyhole
slot of the crossbar mounting bracket as shown. Attach
the crossbar mounting bracket to the outlet box with the
screws provided, making sure the outlet box wires are not
pinched by the washer.
CROSSBAR MOUNTING 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.

LAG SCREW INSTALLATION (OPTIONAL)
PERMA•LOCK™ HARDWARE
FAN PREPARATION
NOTE: This step is required only under two conditions:
If the fan weighs 36 lbs. or more (which does not pertain
to this fan) or if the existing ceiling fixture outlet box
needs to be modified for a ceiling fan application (for
example, if the house is not new construction and you are
replacing an existing light fixture). We recommend that
the ceiling box be of sufficient capacity to support the
weight of the fan and light fixture under any conditions.
If in doubt whether you need to install the lag screw,
consult a qualified electrician.
Step2(optional). With the large washer attached, pass the
lag screw (Pack A) through the center holeof the crossbar
mounting bracket and screw into the guide hole. Tighten
until the outlet box is mounted firmly to the beam. This
box must be secured to the ceiling firmly.
Prepare for fan installation as follows:
Step 3a. Route the wires from the motor through the
Perma•Lock™ downrod and ball assembly.
TIP: The downrod has a tapered thread that is designed
to lock completely when correctly installed.
Step 3b. 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 3c. Securely tighten the set screw with the provided
allen wrench to ensure safe operation of your fan.
CAUTION:
Before trimming wires or installing the downrod, pull
the wires on the bottom of the fan to assure they are
all the same length as shown.
Important safety information!
Before starting the installation of your ceiling fan, install the threaded
downrod into the motor coupling and lock the assembly.
CAUTION:
Failure to fully lock in the downrod before securely
tightening the set screw may cause the fan to separate
from the downrod during normal operation!
