Welcome
Your new Hunter® ceiling fan is an addition to your home or oce that will provide comfort and performance for many years. is 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 o the circuit breakers to the outlet box and associated wall switch location. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the o 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 qualied 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 re, 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 mounting system provides you maximum installation exibility 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

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 (In Canada, call 1-866-268-1936).
Installing Multiple Fans?
If you are installing more than one fan, keep the fan blades and blade irons (if applicable) in sets, as they were shipped.
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 eciency, and energy savings.

2 • Installing the Hanger Bracket
2-1. Drill two pilot holes into the wood support structure through the
outermost holes in the outlet box. e pilot holes should be 9/64” in diameter.
Note: Your fan comes with four pre-installed neoprene noise
isolators.
2-2. read the lead wires from the outlet box down through the hole
in the middle of the hanger bracket.
2-3. Align the slotted holes in the hanger bracket with the pilot holes
you drilled in the wood support structure. For proper alignment use slotted holes directly across from each other. If you are installing the fan on an ANGLED ceiling, be sure to orient the hanger bracket as shown in Illustration 2-3 (left or right view).
Note: e isolators should be ush against the ceiling.
2-4. Place a at washer on each of the two 3” screws and pass the
screws through the slotted holes in the hanger bracket into the pilot holes you drilled.
Tighten the screws into the 9/64” pilot holes; do not use lubricants
on the screws. Do not over tighten.

3 • Assembling and Hanging the Fan
3-1. To assemble fan to hang down from a at or angled ceiling, place
the canopy and canopy trim ring around the adapter so that they rest on the fan assembly.
3-2. Feed the wires from the fan through the downrod. Note: Make sure all the wires are on the same side of the metal
dowel pin inside the downrod.
3-3. Loosen the square head set screw on the adapter to install the
pipe and ball assembly. Note: When the pipe and ball assembly is fully installed, 2-3 threads on the pipe will still be visible; this is normal. Securely retighten the set screw with a wrench or pliers.
CAUTION: e adapter has a special coating on the threads. Do
not remove this coating; the coating prevents the downrod from unscrewing. Once assembled, do not remove the downrod.
WARNING: Do not carry or lift fan by canopy.
3-4. Raise the fan and place the ball into the hanger bracket. 3-5. Align the notch on the ball with the indent in the hanger bracket.
(Rotate the fan until you hear the notch pop into place.)

4-1. Before attempting installation, make sure the power is still o.
4-2. To connect the wires, hold the bare metal leads together and place
a wire connector over them, then twist clockwise until tight. For all these connections use the wire connectors provided.
4-3. Connect the bare or green ground wire (grounding) from the
ceiling to the green ground wire (grounding) from the ceiling plate and the green ground wire from the fan.
4-4. Connect the white wire (grounded) from the ceiling to the white
wire (grounded) from the fan.
4-5. Connect the remaining wires as follows:
• e black wire (ungrounded) from the ceiling to the black (ungrounded) and the black/white wire (ungrounded) from the fan
CAUTION: Be sure no bare wire or wire strands are visible after

6 • Assembling the Blades
Hunter fans use several styles of fan blade irons (brackets that hold the blade to the fan).
6-1. Your fan may include blade grommets. If your fan has grommets,
insert them by hand into the holes on the blades.
6-2. Attach each blade to a blade iron using three blade assembly
screws. If you used grommets, the blades may appear slightly loose after screws are tightened. is is normal.
6-3. Remove the blade mounting screws and rubber shipping bumpers
from the motor. Note: Some blade mounting screws are installed in the motor to secure shipping blocks.
6-4. For each blade, insert one blade mounting screw through the
blade iron, and attach lightly to the fan. Insert the second blade mounting screw, then securely tighten both mounting screws.
