IMPORTANT INFORMATION

DO YOU NEED HELP?

To install a ceiling fan, be sure you
can do the following:

• Locate 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.

CAUTIONS

• Read entire booklet care­fully before beginning in­stallation.

• 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.

• Save these instructions.

WARNINGS

• T o 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 can-

not 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/NFP A 70- 1993. If you
are unfamiliar with wiring,
you should use a qualified
electrician.

• To reduce the risk of per­sonal injury, do not bend
the Speed Ring™ 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 solid­state speed control with
this fan. Use only Hunter
speed controls.

GATHERING THE TOOLS

You need the following tools to in­stall the fan:

• Electric drill with 9/64" bit

• Standard screwdriver

• Phillips-head screwdriver

• Wrench or pliers

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES

Consider using Hunter’ s optional ac­cessories, such as a wall-mounted or
remote speed control. Follow the in­structions for installation and use in­cluded with each Hunter accessory.

For quiet and optimum performance
of your Hunter fan, use only Hunter
speed controls.

STEP 1 - GETTING READY

PREPARING THE FAN SITE

Reliable operation, efficiency, and
maximum energy savings depend
upon proper placement and attach­ment of the fan. For this reason, we
have included a separate booklet —
“Guide to Choosing and Preparing
a Ceiling Fan Site” — to help you
select the best location for your fan.
The booklet also provides informa­tion to ensure your fan support and
electric outlet box meet UL-approved
safety codes for ceiling fans.

The instructions in this installation
manual assume that you have used
the “Guide to Choosing and Prepar ­ing a Ceiling Fan Site” to pick the
fan location and make certain the
proper fan support and outlet box are
installed.

CHECKING YOUR FAN PARTS

Carefully unpack your fan parts to
avoid damage. Check for shipping
damage. If one of the fan blades is
damaged, return all blades for re­placement.

Hint: If installing more than one fan,

keep the fan blades in sets, as
shipped.

The fan packaging includes a sepa­rate diagram of all screws and other
small parts. Keep this diagram handy
during installation.

If any parts are missing or damaged,
contact your Hunter dealer or call the
Hunter Parts Department at 901/
745-9222.

INSTALLER’S CHOICE®

This patented 3-position mounting
system gives you maximum flexibil­ity and ease of installation. The steps
in this manual include specific in­structions for the fan mounting
method of your choice. For a ceiling
8 feet or higher, standard mounting
is recommended.

Flush Mounting (Figure 1a) fits
close to the ceiling, for low ceilings
less than 8 feet high.

Standard Mounting (Figure 1b)
hangs from the ceiling by a connec­tor pipe (included), for ceilings 8 feet
or higher. For ceilings higher than 8
feet, you can also purchase Hunter
extension rods. All Hunter fans use
sturdy 3/4" inner diameter pipe to
assure stability and wobble-free per ­formance.

4. Align the slotted holes in the ceil­ing plate with the pilot holes in
the wood support structure.
Note: The isolation pads should
be flush against the ceiling.

1. Drill two pilot holes into the wood
support structure through the
outermost holes on the outlet
box. The pilot holes should be
9/64" in diameter.

2. Thread the lead wires from the
outlet box through the hole in the
middle of the ceiling plate.

3. Your fan comes with two neo­prene 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. Refer to
Figure 2a.

Note: To hang the fan you must
tilt the canopy to an almost verti­cal position so the canopy slots
come down over the ceiling plate
hooks.

3. You can use either one or two
wall switches to control the fan
and/or lights separately . Use con­nection 1 on page 12 to

• control the light with a wall

switch and the fan with a
chain pull (one wall switch re­quired)

• control the light with a chain

pull and the fan with a wall
switch (one wall switch re­quired)

• control the light with one wall

switch and the fan with an­other (two wall switches re­quired)

OPERATING YOUR HUNTER FAN

1. Turn on electrical power to the
fan.

2. The pull chain controls power to
the fan. The chain has four set­tings in sequence: High, Medium,
Low and Off.

• Pull the chain slowly to change

settings.

• Release slowly to prevent the

chain from recoiling into the
blades.

• The chain uses a breakaway

connector that separates if the
chain is jerked. If this happens,
simply reinsert the chain into
the connector.

3. Ceiling fans work best by blow­ing air downward (counterclock­wise blade rotation) in warm
weather to cool the room with a

direct breeze. In winter, having
the fan draw air upward (clock­wise blade rotation) will distrib­ute the warmer air trapped at the
ceiling around the room without
causing a draft. Refer to Figure 8a.

To change the direction of air
flow, turn the fan off and let it
come to a complete stop. Slide
the reversing switch on the fan to
the opposite position as shown in
Figure 8b. Restart fan.

4. If your fan wobbles when oper­ating, use the enclosed balancing
kit and the accompanying instruc­tions to balance the fan.
