Installing a New Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
If you do not have an existing fi xture located where you
wish to place your Casablanca fan, an approved ceiling
fi xture outlet box must be installed and wired.

To reduce the risk of fi re, 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.

CEILING HARDWARE (not to scale)
Crossbar Mounting Bracket
NOTE: After removing the old fi xture, check the outlet box
to insure that it is supported by a joist or beam across its
upper surface. If not, a 2 x 4 stud must be installed.
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.
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.
WARNING!
Support directly to building structure only.

not, a new box must be installed.
