Choosing the Right Installation Location

You probably bought this fan with a location in mind. Let’s check below to make sure it is a good fit.

**Check the room dimensions:

**

**Check the outlet box:

**

You must be able to secure the fan to building structure or fan-rated outlet box.

Installing the Ceiling Bracket

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.

Do this first!

Option 1: Machine Screws

Use machine screws(provided with outlet box) and washers when securing to existing ceiling fan-rated  outlet box. Make sure it issecurely installed and is acceptable for fan support of 31.8 kg (70 lbs) or less.

WARNING
To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing your fan, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box associated with the wall switch location.

Installing the Ceiling Bracket

Hunter Pro Tip:
The machine screws are the ones that came with your outlet box.

Option 2: Wood Screws

Use wood screws and washers (included) when securing to support structure with approved electrical  outlet box. Drill 9/64” pilotholes in support structure to aid in securing ceiling bracket with hardware found in the hardware bag.

Installing the Top Housing

Loosen the two preinstalled canopy screws so that they are still engaged.

Wiring the Fan

We know wiring is hard. Let’s make it easier.
Follow these steps to get your fan wired quickly and safely. Follow the route below that best matches your wall switch setup. If you are unfamiliar with wiring or uncomfortable doing it yourself, please contact a qualified electrician.

4 Wire Nuts (these are in the bag)

Hunter Pro Tip:

Here is how to connect the wires
Push the bare metal ends of the wires together and slide a wire nut over them. Then, twist the wire nut clockwise until tight.
Give it a gentle pull to make sure none of the wires are loose.

Installing the Canopy

Swing the fan up to align the canopy screw holes with the mounting holes on the ceiling plate.

Note: The slots in the canopy must remain engaged while swinging the canopy for alignment.

Hold the canopy up with the screw holes aligned. Partially install two canopy screws, found in the hardware bag, into the holes opposite the ceiling plate hooks.

    Installing Wall Control

  5. Reattach the knob onto the wall control and turn it to the left for the OFF position.

  6. Turning on the power

Reversing the Fan

Ceiling fans work in two directions: downdraft (counterclockwise rotation) and updraft (clockwise rotation). To change the direction of air flow, turn the fan off and let it come to a complete stop. Slide the reversing switch to the opposite position. Restart the fan.
Reversing the Fan

Updraft (clockwise rotation) creates a more indirect airflow.
Updraft airflow is great for moving warm air downward.
Reversing the Fan

Downdraft (counterclockwise rotation) creates a direct breeze and maximum cooling effect.
Reversing the Fan

Troubleshooting

Fan Doesn’t Work

  • Push the motor reversing switch firmly left or right to ensure that it is engaged.
  • Check the circuit breaker to ensure the power is turned on.
  • Make sure the blades spin freely.
  • Turn off power from the circuit breaker, then loosen the canopy and check all the connections according to the wiring diagram.

Excessive Wobbling

  • Make sure the blades are properly installed on the blade iron posts.
  • Turn the power off, support the fan carefully, and check that the hanger ball is properly seated.

Noisy Operation

  • Make sure the blades are properly installed.
  • Check to see if any of the blades are cracked. If so, replace all of the blades.

Hunter Pro Tip:

Cleaning the Fan
Use soft brushes or cloths to prevent scratching.
Cleaning products may damage the finishes.
