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.

Check the room dimensions

Check the 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.

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 installed 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 the 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!

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.

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

Option 2
Wood Screws Use wood screws and washers (included) when securing to support the structure with an approved electrical outlet box. Drill 9/64″ pilot holes in the support structure to aid in securing the ceiling bracket with hardware found in the hardware bag.

Wiring the Fan

Connect wiring from ceiling to terminal block (on the side of the canopy mount) and tighten using a flathead screwdriver (included).
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.
• All wiring must be under national and local electrical codes ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are unfamiliar with wiring or in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
• The celling tan must be grounded. If the ground wire for the installation site is not present, immediately STOP installation and consult a qualified electrician.
