Warning
w.1 - To reduce the risk of re, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount fan directly from building structure and/or an outlet box marked acceptable for fan support of 70 lbs
(31.8 kg) and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box.
w.2 - To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing or servicing your fan, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box and associated wall
switch location. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the off position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
w.3 – To reduce the risk of electric shock, this fan must be installed with an isolating wall control/switch.
w.4 - To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the blade brackets when installing the blade brackets, balancing the blades, or cleaning the fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between
rotating fan blades.
Caution
c.1 - All wiring must be in accordance with national and local electrical codes ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are unfamiliar with wiring, use a qualied electrician.

Choosing the Right Installation Location
Checking the Ceiling Angle:
Angled Mounting
You probably bought this fan with a location in mind. Let’s check below to make sure it is a good t.
If you have an angled or vaulted ceiling:
1. You will need a longer downrod. (sold separately at HunterFan.com)
2. If your ceiling angle is greater than 34°, you will also need an
Angled Mounting Kit. (Sold separately at HunterFan.com)
Check the room dimensions: Check the outlet box:
You must be able to
secure the fan to building
structure or fan-rated
outlet box.

A little more information on Angled Mounting:
For optimum performance and appearance, a longer downrod should
be used with your Hunter ceiling fan when installing on high or angled
ceiling. If your ceiling is angled greater than 34°you will also need an
Angled Mounting Kit. Longer downrods and the Angled Mounting Kit are
sold separately at HunterFan.com.
Determining if you need an Angled Mounting Kit:
Fold on the dotted line. Place against edge againts
the wall. Slide towards the ceiling.
If the guide touches the wall but not the ceiling, you
need an angled mounting kit.

Installing the Ceiling Bracket
Installing the Housing
You have two options for installation. Pick which one works best for your location. Remove any existing
bracket prior to installation. Only use the provided Hunter ceiling bracket that came in your fan’s box.
Check the outlet box:
Use wood screws (included)
when securing to support
structure with approved
electrical outlet box. Drill
9/64” pilot holes in support
structure to aid in securing
ceiling bracket with
hardware found in the
hardware bag.
Use machine screws (pro-
vided with outlet box) when
securing to existing ceiling
fan-rated outlet box. Make
sure it is securely installed
and is acceptable for fan
support of 31.8 kg (70 lbs)
or less.
