Installer’s Choice and Optional Accessories
Understanding Mounting and Installer’s Choice®
Hunter’s patented 2-position 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.
Standard Mounting hangs from the
ceiling by a downrod (included).

• 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.
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

8-1. Turn on electrical power to the fan.
8-2. 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.
8-3. e light pull chain controls the power to the light xture. e chain has
two settings: ON and OFF.
8-4. 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.
8-5. 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.
8-6. 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.
