Here are the tools you’ll need to complete your installation
Here is what comes in your box
We recommend that you pull everything out of the box and lay it out. We have grouped the drawn components below with the hardware you’ll need for those parts. The screws below are drawn to scale to make it easier to identify what piece of hardware is needed to install each component.
Hunter Pro Tip:
Do not discard the hardware bags or mix parts from different bags. Make note of the symbol printed on each hardware bag. The symbols can be used to identify the appropriate harware for each step.
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.
Checking the Ceiling Angle
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 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.
Hunter Pro Tip:
The machine screws are the ones that came with your outlet 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.
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 is securely installed and
is acceptable for fan support of 31.8 kg (70 lbs) or less.
Option 2:
Wood Screws
Use wood screws and washers (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.
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 down rod.
Pass all wires t o 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 lighten setscrew.
- CHECK the setscrew is light using pliers each time you change fan direction.
Hunter Pro Tip:
The ground wire attached to the downrod is approximately 8 inches.
Hanging the Fan
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)
Have a single switch?
Follow these steps:
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.
- Connect the white (grounded) wire from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan.
- Connect the black wire (ungrounded) from the ceiling to the black and the blue wires from the fan.
- Connect the three grounding wires (green, green/yellow stripe, or bare copper) coming from the ceiling, downrod, and hanging bracket.
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.
Have dual switches?
Follow these steps:
- Connect the white (grounded) wire from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan.
- Connect the black (ungrounded) wire from the ceiling to the black wire from the fan.
- Connect the second ungrounded (light) wire from the ceiling to the blue wire from the fan.
- Connect the three grounding wires (green, green/yellow stripe, or bare copper) coming from the ceiling, downrod, and hanging bracket.
Installing the Canopy
Installing the Blades
Put the blade washers found in the hardware bag onto the blade screws found in the A hardware bag. Then install the blade screws to secure each blade to the fan.
Assembling the Light Kit
- Partially install two light kit assembly 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 9-pin plug connector coming from the bottom of the motor housing through the center hole in the light kit assembly. Connect it to the plug connector found in the switch housing area of the light kit assembly. Make sure to line up the colored markings on the connectors.
- Align the keyhole slots in the top of the light kit assembly with the partially installed assembly screws. Wrap the keyhole slots around the screws and twist counterclockwise.
- Insert the third screw, found in the = hardware bag, in place and firmly lighten all the three screws.
- Carefully push all switch housing components into the switch housing, then install the switch housing plate using two short light kit assembly screws, found in the= hardware bag.
Installing the Bulbs and Glass
- Install the included bulbs into the sockets. When necessary, replace with bulbs of same wattage.
- Lift the globe and align the notches in the globe with the tabs in the light kit.
- Attach the globe by lifting and turning clockwise one third of a full turn of the glass until it stops.
NOTE: Check to ensure proper engagement
GLASS FALL HAZARD
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH, make sure that glass is properly secured.
Installing the Pull Chains
Reversing the Fan
- Ceiling fans work in two directions: downdraft and updraft. To change the direction of air flow, turn the fan off and let it come to a complete stop. The reversing switch is located inside the light fixture. It can only be accessed when the glass is removed. Slide the reversing switch to the opposite position. Restart the fan.
- Updraft (clockwise rotation) creates a more indirect airflow. Updraft airflow is great for moving warm air downward.
- Downdraft (counterclockwise rotation) creates a direct breeze and maximum cooling effect.
Note:
Fan style may vary.
Troubleshooting
Fan Doesn’t Work
- Make sure power switch is on.
- Pull the pull chain to make sure it is on.
- 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.
- Check the plug connection in the switch housing.
Excessive Wobbling
- Make sure the blades are properly installed on the blade iron posts.
- Tum the power off, support the fan carefully, and check that the hanger ball is properly seated.
- Use the provided balancing kit and instructions to balance the fan.
Noisy Operation
- Make sure the blades are properly installed.
- Check to see tt any of the blades are cracked. H so, replace all of the blades.
Hunter Pro Tip:
