WARNING: CRUSH HAZARD

To prevent serious injury or death, ALWAYS attach the Retention Cable to the fan motor and secure to the building structure on EVERY fan.
The Retention Cable limits the distance the fan could fall in the unlikely event of mounting system failure. Failure to install and to secure the Retention Cable will void your warranty.

Weight and Torque Considerations

Always mount fan directly to building structure that can withstand approximately double (2x) the maximum hanging weight of the fan.

The hanging weight of a 8′ fan with a standard 11″ downrod is 50 lbs. The maximum hanging weight of a 8′ fan with a 59″ downrod is 55 lbs and a maximum torque of 7 ft-lbs.
Hunter Fan provides guidelines for mounting fans; however, it is the sole responsibility of the building owner and installer to ensure the safety of the mounting system and Retention Cable, the building structure is sound, and the installation complies with all federal, state and local codes.

Always Use Personal Protective Equipment

You should always wear Personal Protective Equipment, such as a Hard Hat, Safety Glasses and a Fall Harness when installing fans.

Damaged Equipment

Never operate or install any fans or fan accessories that appear to be damaged. Failure to follow this instruction can result in death, serious injury or equipment damage.
To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the blades or blade holders when installing or cleaning the fan.
Do not insert foreign objects in between rotating fan blades.

Service

If the fan does not operate properly using the procedures in this manual, remove all power to the unit and contact our Technical Department for further assistance at 1-844-593-FANS (3267).

CHOOSE THE RIGHT LOCATION

Check the room dimensions:

Check the outlet box:

You must be able to secure the fan to building structure or fan-rated outlet box and clearly marked acceptable for fan support of 70 lbs (31.8 kg) or less.

Checking the Ceiling Angle:

If you have a flat ceiling:

Hang your fan by a standard downrod. For tall ceilings you may need a longer downrod.

If you have an angled or vaulted ceiling

You will need a longer downrod.

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.

NOTICE

Fan can not be mounted on to a ceiling with an angle greater than 34″

Hunter Pro Tip:

Determining angle of ceiling:
- Fold on the dotted line. Place long edge againts the wall. Slide towards the ceiling. If the guide touches the wall but not the ceiling, your ceiling is greater than 34°.

FAN PLACEMENT

Warning: ALWAYS mount fan so the bottom edge of blade to the floor is at least 10 feet.

Always mount fans away from the following:

Sprinkler Systems

Prior to installing fans, review all codes applicable to sprinkler systems and fans to ensure code compliance and refer to NFPA 13: Fire Sprinkler System Installation. In any installation where fire sprinklers are present, the fan should not interfere with their operation.

Fans should be located at least 3 feet below a sprinkler deflector.
Fans should be centered between 4 adjacent sprinklers.

It is your responsibility that the installation complies with the applicable codes. For assistance, please call our Technical Department at 1-844- 593-FANS (3267).

Walkways and Mezzanines

If the building has elevated walkways or mezzanines, mount the fans so that a person cannot reach the rotating blades in any way. Position fans so that the tips of the blades are at least 5 feet away from any area where a person may be able to extend outward to reach them.

Lights and Skylights

If possible, avoid mounting fans directly below lights or skylights to avoid any strobe effect caused by moving blades.
There should be a minimum of 2 feet between the blades and any light fixture.

Air Discharge Locations

Fans should not be located directly beneath or in line with any air discharge. This includes air conditioning units and evaporative coolers.Such equipment can be used effectively in conjunction with ceiling fans however the discharge of the unit must be located outside the swept area of the fan and at a distance of at least two times the diameter.

PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKLIST

The location of the fan will alow for a minumum of 2 feet of blade clearance from any obstruction and at least 1 O feet of clearance above the floor.
If installing multiple fans, reference the fan placement chart for optimal spacing.
The control panel voltage markings (either 100-12ovAc or 220-240VACJ should match your building supply power.
