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 in
from blade tip to nearest wall or obstruction
7 ft
from bottom edge of blade to the floor
You must be able to secure the fan to building structure or fan-rated outlet box.

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
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.
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 lb 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 in 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.

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.
