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.

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 your preference: Standard or Angled
mounting.
If you want to install the fan on a ceiling 9 feet or higher, follow section
3 • Assembling the Fan for Ceilings 9 Feet or Higher on Page 6.
If you want to install on a ceiling 8-9 feet high, follow section
4 • Assembling the Fan for Ceilings 8-9 Feet High on Page 7.
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.
Your fan includes an extension
downrod, which should be used
only when installing the fan on a
ceiling 9 feet or higher. All Hunter
fans use sturdy 3/4” diameter pipe
to assure stability and wobble-free
performance.
Angle Mounting is recommended for a
vaulted or angled ceiling.
A standard downrod is provided
for installing your fan on a ceiling
8-9 feet high. Note: e decorative
scroll assembly will not t on the
standard downrod.
For ceilings 9 feet or higher, an
extension downrod and decorative
scroll assembly are provided. e
decorative scroll cannot be added
to the fan when installing on ceilings
lower than 9 feet.

To install a ceiling fan, be sure you can do the following:
• Locate the ceiling joist or other suitable support in ceiling.
• Drill holes for and install wood screws.

• 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

location and attachment to the building structure are essential for
safety, reliable operation, maximum eciency, and energy savings.
Installing Multiple Fans?
If you are installing more than
one fan, keep the fan blades and
blade irons (if applicable) in sets,
as they were shipped.

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 the power to the light xture. e
chain has two settings: ON and OFF.
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
