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.

Check the room dimensions:

Check the outlet box:

30 inches
from blade tip to nearest wall or obstruction

7 feet
from bottom edge of blade to the floor

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

Ceiling Outlet Box (required)

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.

If you have an angled or vaulted ceiling: 1. You will need a longer downrod. (sold separately at HunterFan.com) 2. 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 against edge againts 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.
Do this first!

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

OFF Turn Power

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.
ANGLED MOUNTING TIP

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.

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:

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.

Grounded White
Ungrounded Black

Cap the blue wire from the fan. You will not need it for single switch wiring.

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.

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.
· Turn 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.
