Mounting and Optional Accessories
Understanding Mounting
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 Angle mounting.  e steps in this manual include instructions for
both 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.
Standard Mounting hangs from the
ceiling by a downrod (included). Use the
2.5 inch downrod for ceilings 8-9 feet
high. Use the 8 inch downrod for ceilings
higher than 9 feet.
Angle Mounting recommended for a
vaulted or angled ceiling
All Hunter fans use sturdy 3/4”
diameter pipe to assure stability and
wobble-free performance.
You must hang this fan from an 8 feet or higher
ceiling. Use the 2.5 inch downrod for ceilings
between 8 feet and 9 feet high. Use the 8 inch
downrod for ceilings higher than 9 feet.
 is fan cannot be hung on ceilings lower than 8 feet.

Uninstalling the Light Fixture
1. You must remove the wiring harness and its
components from the integrated light  xture. You
must then install the wiring harness into the empty
switch housing included with the fan.
2. Locate the reversing switch and carefully remove the
two screws holding the reversing switch to the lower
switch housing. Now, remove the reversing switch
from the housing.
3. Remove the patented breakaway connector from
the end of the fan pull chain. Carefully loosen the
bellmouth nut from the pull chain and remove the
pull chain switch from the light  xture housing.
4. Locate and carefully remove the two capacitors.
5. In the light  xture housing there are the following plug
connectors: one multi-wire connector and two two-wire
connectors. Unplug the two-wire connectors; one connector
will have a black with white striped wire and a white wire
coming from the multi-wire connector.
6. You have now disconnected the wiring harness and its
components and are ready to install them into the empty
switch housing. ( e light switch remains in the light assembly
housing.)
7. Insert the pull chain and fan pull chain switch through the
round opening on the side of the empty switch housing.
 read the bellmouth nut over the pull chain and hand
tighten the bellmouth nut.
8. Reattach the breakaway connector to the pull chain.
9. Insert the reversing switch into the square hole on the side
of the switch housing. Install and tighten the two screws you

9-1. Turn on electrical power to the fan.
9-2.  e fan pull chain controls power to the fan.  e pull chain has
four settings in sequence: High, Medium, Low and O .
• Pull the chain slowly to change settings.
• Release slowly to prevent the chain from recoiling into the
blades.
•  e chain uses a breakaway connector that separates if the
chain is jerked. If this happens, simply reinsert the chain into
the connector.
9-3.  e light pull chain controls power to the light.  e pull chain has
two settings: On and O .
9-4. 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.
9-5. For cleaning  nishes, use a soft brush or lint-free cloth to prevent
scratching. A vacuum cleaner brush nozzle can remove heavier
dust. Remove surface smudges or accumulated dirt and dust using
a mild detergent and a slightly dampened cloth. You may use
an artistic agent, but never abrasive cleaning agents as they will
damage the  nish.
9-6. Clean wood  nish blades with a furniture polishing cloth.
Occasionally, apply a light coat of furniture polish for added
protection and beauty. Clean painted and high-gloss blades in the
same manner as the fan  nish.
To Change Air ow Direction
Turn the fan o and let it come to a complete
stop. Slide the reversing switch on the fan to the
opposite position. Restart fan.
