(31.8 kg) and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box.

w.2 - To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing or servicing 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.

w.3 – To reduce the risk of electric shock, this fan must be installed with an isolating wall control/switch.

If you have a at ceiling:

Hang your fan by a standard downrod. Some fans come
with a shorter downrod for a Low Prole installation.

A little more information on Angled Mounting:

For optimum performance and appearance, a longer downrod should
be used with your Hunter ceiling fan when installing on high or angled
ceiling. If your ceiling is angled greater than 34° you will also need an
Angled Mounting Kit. Longer downrods and the Angled Mounting Kit are
sold separately at HunterFan.com.

Hunter Pro Tip:

Determining if you need an Angled Mounting Kit:

Fold on the dotted line. Place against edge againts
the wall. Slide towards the ceiling.

If the guide touches the wall but not the ceiling, you
need an angled mounting kit.

CEILING

If you have an angled or vaulted ceiling:

1. You will need a longer downrod. (sold separately at HunterFan.com)

2. If your ceiling angle is greater than 34°, you will also need an

Reversing the Fan

Installing the Pull Chains

Remove and discard the plastic connectors
from the ends of the short pull chain. Attach
the pull chain pendants to the light and fan
pull chains.

Repeat x2

Ceiling fans work in two directions: downdraft and updraft. To change the direction of air ow, turn the fan off and let it
come to a complete stop. The reversing switch is located inside the light xture. It can only be accessed when the glass
is removed. Slide the reversing switch to the opposite position. Restart the fan.

The fan pull chain controls
the speed: from high to off.

The light pull chain controls
the light xture: on and off.

Updraft (clockwise rotation)
creates a more indirect airow.
Updraft airow is great for
moving warm air downward.

Downdraft (counterclockwise
