Fan Preparation - Casablanca WHITMAN Owner's Manual

PERMA•LOCK™ HARDWARE AND TOOLS NEEDED (not to scale)
5" Perma•Lock™ Downrod
and Ball Assembly
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION:
Before starting the installation of your
ceiling fan, install the threaded downrod into
the motor coupling and lock the assembly.
Prepare for fan installation as follows:
Step 4a. Remove the paper shield (Figure #1) from
the motor.
Step 4b. Locate the set screw as shown in Figures
#2. If the end of the set screw can be seen within the
motor coupling as shown, you will need to unscrew
the set screw so that the bolt does not remain in the
path of the downrod.
Step 5a. Slide the pole cover on to the pole, then
route the wires through the 5" Perma•Lock downrod
and ball assembly as shown in Figures #3. Insert the
downrod into the motor coupling and turn it clockwise
until it stops turning, ensuring that the pole has
bottomed out.
TIP: The downrod has a tapered thread that is designed
to lock completely when installed correctly.
Step 5b. Before hanging the fan body you will need
to slide the Canopy Ring, over the ends of the wires
and over the end of the pole as shown in Figure #3.
CAUTION: Failure to fully lock in the
downrod before securely tightening the
locking bolt may cause the fan to separate
from the downrod and fall during normal
operation.
