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

(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

Installer’s Choice and Optional Accessories
Understanding Mounting and Installer’s Choice®
Hunter’s patented 3-position mounting system provides you maximum
installation  exibility and ease. You can install your Hunter fan in one
of three ways, depending on ceiling height and your preference: Low
Pro le, Standard, or Angle mounting.  e steps in this manual include
instructions for all three 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.
Low Pro le Mounting  ts close to the
ceiling, recommended for ceilings less
than 8 feet high
Standard Mounting hangs from
the ceiling by a downrod (included),
recommended for ceilings 8 feet or higher
Angle Mounting recommended for a
vaulted or angled ceiling
Use the 3 inch downrod for ceilings
between 8 and 9 feet. Use the 6 inch
downrod for ceilings higher than 9
feet. No downrod required for ceilings
less than 8 feet (low pro le).
For ceilings higher than 10 feet, you
can purchase Hunter extension
downrods. All Hunter fans use sturdy
3/4” diameter pipe to assure stability
and wobble-free performance.

9 • Operating and Cleaning Your Ceiling Fan
In warm weather, use
downward air  ow pattern
In cold weather, use upward
air  ow pattern
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. Ceiling fans work best by blowing air downward (counterclockwise
blade rotation) in warm weather to cool the room with a direct
breeze. In cold weather, 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.
9-4. 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.
9-5. 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.

Hunter fans have the power to cut your cooling costs up to 40%.
Beat the High Cost of Cooling
 e air movement created by a Hunter ceiling fan lets you set your
thermostat higher and still stay comfortable. Every degree you
raise the thermostat saves up to 7% on energy costs. So, you can
cut back on expensive air conditioning...and save up to 40%* on
cooling. In winter, your Hunter fan recirculates warm air and saves
up to 10%* on heating bills.
* On average at low speed settings. Your savings may vary based
on climate, building type and thermostat setting.
Save Energy and Money While Protecting the Environment
