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. e 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.

Angled Mounting recommended for a vaulted or angled ceiling
