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.
Checking the Ceiling Angle
Standard Mounting
If you have a flat ceiling:
Hang your fan by a standard downrod. Some fans come with a shorter downrod
for a Low Profile installation.
Angled Mounting
If you have an angled or vaulted ceiling:
- You will need a longer downrod. (Sold separately at HunterFan.com)
- If your ceiling angle is greater than 34°, you will also need an Angled Mounting Kit. (Sold separately at HunterFan.com)
Angled Mounting
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.
Hunter Pro Tip:
Determining if you need an Angled Mounting Kit:
Fold on the dotted line. Place edge against 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
You have two options f or 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!
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.
**ANGLED MOUNTING TIP
For angled ceilings, point opening toward peak.**
Hunter Pro Tip:
The machine screws are the ones that came with your outlet box.

Installing the Downrod
Follow below if you are using the downrod that came pre-assembled in your box.
Need to install a longer or shorter downrod? Check out the guide at the end of
this manual.
Back out the pre-installed setscrew so that the setscrew’s threads are still
engaged while the shank does not protrude and obstruct the insertion of the
downrod.
Pass all wires to one side of horizontal bar in downrod assembly. Hand tighten the downrod until it stops (at least 4–5 complete revolutions)
WARNING
FAN FALL HAZARD
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:
- ALWAYS tighten setscrew with pliers.
- DO NOT hand tighten setscrew.
- CHECK the setscrew is tight using pliers each time you change fan direction.
Hunter Pro Tip:
The ground wire attached to the downrod is approximately 8 inches.

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.
You are going to need these:
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.
Have a single switch?
Follow these steps:
WARNING
The ceiling fan must be grounded. If the ground wire for the installation site
is not present, immediately STOP installation and consult a qualified
electrician.
WARNING
All wiring must be in accordance with national and local electrical codes
ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are unfamiliar with wiring or in doubt, consult a
qualified electrician.
Hunter Pro Tip:
Have extra wiring?
Turn the wires upward and push them carefully back through the hanger bracket
into the outlet box. Spread the wires apart, with the grounded wires on one
side of the outlet box and the ungrounded wires on the other side of the
outlet box. Make sure that the wires are still attached to the wire nuts.
Installing the Canopy
Note: Fan style may vary.
Installing the Blades:
IMPORTANT
NOTE: Follow the instructions on the blade. Installing it incorrectly could
result in your fan not functioning.
Assembling the Light Fixture
Partially install two upper switch housing screws, found in the hardware bag,
halfway into the motor housing as shown. It does not matter which two screw
holes you choose.
Feed the wire plug through the center hole of the upper switch housing, then wrap keyhole slots around the screws and twist counterclockwise.
Insert the third screw, found in the hardware bag, into place and then tighten all three screw.
WARNING
FAN FALL HAZARD
Make sure all three screws are tight to secure the trim ring to the mounting
plate.
Connect the plugs from the upper and lower switch housings. Make sure to line
up the colored markings on the connectors.
Lift the lower switch housing until its screw holes are aligned with the screw
holes in the upper switch housing. Install the three switch housing screws,
found in the hardware bag. Tighten all three screws.
Installing Wall Control

the wall switch location.
