What to Expect with Your Installation
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 re, electrical shock, or motor
damage, use only Hunter Solid State Speed Controls.
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.
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.
