Welcome
Your new Hunter® ceiling fan is an addition to your home or office that will provide comfort and performance for many years. This installation and operation manual gives you complete instructions for installing and operating your fan.
We are proud of our work. We appreciate the opportunity to supply you with the best ceiling fan available anywhere in the world.
Before installing your fan, for your records and warranty assistance, record information from the carton and Hunter nameplate label
(located on the top of the fan motor housing).
Cautions and Warnings
•READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
•Use only Hunter replacement parts.
•To reduce the risk of personal injury, attach the fan directly to the support structure of the building according to these instructions, and use only the hardware supplied.
•To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing your fan, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box and associated wall switch location. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the off position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
•All wiring must be in accordance with national and local electrical codes and ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are unfamiliar with wiring, use a qualified electrician.
•To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the blade attachment system when installing, balancing, or cleaning the fan.
Never insert foreign objects between rotating fan blades.
•To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or motor damage, do not use a solid-state speed control with this fan. Use only Hunter speed controls.

Understanding Mounting and Installer’s Choice®
Hunter’s patented 2-position mounting system provides you maximum installation flexibility and ease. You can install your Hunter fan in one of two ways, depending on ceiling height and your preference: Standard or Angled mounting. The steps in this manual include instructions for both Installer’s Choice mounting methods.
Considering Optional Accessories
Consider using Hunter’s optional accessories, including a wall-mounted or remote speed control. To install and use the accessories, follow
the instructions included with each product. For quiet and optimum performance of your Hunter fan, use only Hunter speed controls.
For ceilings higher than 8 feet, you can purchase Hunter extension downrods. All Hunter fans use sturdy 3/4” diameter pipe to assure stability and wobble-free performance.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury, attach the fan directly to the support structure of the building according to these instructions, and use only the hardware supplied.

1 • Getting Ready
To install a ceiling fan, be sure you can do the following:
•Locate the ceiling joist or other suitable support in ceiling.
•Drill holes for and install wood screws.
•Identify and connect electrical wires.
•Lift 40 pounds.
If you need help installing the fan, your Hunter fan dealer can direct you to a licensed installer or electrician.
Gathering the Tools
You will need the following tools for installing the fan:
•Electric drill with 9/64” bit
•Standard screwdriver (magnetic tip recommended)
•Phillips-head screwdriver (magnetic tip recommended)
•Wrench or pliers
•Ladder (height dependent upon installation site)
Checking Your Fan Parts
Carefully unpack your fan to avoid damage to the fan parts. Refer to the included Parts Guide. Check for any shipping damage to the motor or fan blades. If any parts are missing or damaged, contact your Hunter dealer or call Hunter Technical Support Department at 888-830-1326.
Preparing the Fan Site
Before you begin installing the fan, follow all the instructions in the pullout sheet called “Preparing the Fan Site.” Proper ceiling fan location and attachment to the building structure are essential for safety, reliable operation, maximum efficiency, and energy savings.

2 • Installing the Ceiling Plate
CAUTION: To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing your fan, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box and associated wall switch location. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the off position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
2-1. Drill two pilot holes into the wood support structure through the outermost holes in the outlet box. The pilot holes should be 9/64” in diameter.
2-2. Your fan comes with four noise isolators. Position the isolators between the ceiling plate and ceiling by inserting the raised areas on each isolator into the holes in the ceiling plate.
2-3. Thread the lead wires from the outlet box down through the hole in the middle of the ceiling plate.
2-4. Align the slotted holes in the ceiling plate with the pilot holes you drilled in the wood support structure. For proper alignment use slotted holes directly across from each other.
Note: The isolators must be flush against the ceiling. A loose ceiling plate will result in improper operation of the Perfect BalanceTM system.
2-5. Place a flat washer on each of the two 3” wood screws and pass the screws through the slotted holes in the ceiling plate into the pilot holes you drilled.
