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 hardware 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 30° 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 Downrod
Follow below if you are using the downrod that came pre-assembled in your box.

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.
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.
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.
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
Installing the Blades:
Slide blade into blade assembly slot and align screw holes of the blade with the screw holes in the blade assembly. Attach each blade to blade assembly using the blade screws and washers, found in the hardware bag.
