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:

Ensure at least 30 inches from blade tip to nearest wall or obstruction.

Ensure at least 7 feet from the bottom edge of the blade to the floor.

Check the outlet box:

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

Checking the Ceiling Angle:

Standard Mounting

For flat ceilings, hang your fan by a standard downrod. Some fans come with a shorter downrod for a Low Profile installation.

Angled Mounting

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).

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 a 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 against the wall. Slide towards the ceiling. If the guide touches the wall but not the ceiling, you need an angled mounting kit.

Diagram Description: A visual guide shows how to use a folded paper template against a wall to determine ceiling angle for mounting kit needs. A 34° angle is indicated.

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!

⚡ Turn Power OFF

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.

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.

ANGLED MOUNTING TIP: For angled ceilings, point opening toward peak.

Diagram Description: Two methods for attaching the ceiling bracket are shown. Option 1 uses machine screws and washers. Option 2 uses wood screws and washers, with a note about drilling pilot holes. An angled mounting tip shows the bracket orientation for sloped ceilings.

Installing the Downrod

Follow below if you are using the downrod that came pre-assembled in your box. Need to install a longer or shorter downrod? Check out the guide at the end of this manual.

STEP 1

Remove the pre-installed setscrew so that the downrod can be inserted.

Hunter Pro Tip: The ground wire attached to the downrod is approximately 8 inches.

STEP 2

Pass all wires to one side of the horizontal bar in the downrod assembly. Hand tighten the downrod (at least 4-5 full turns) until it stops. Trim the wires coming from the fan so that 8 inches remain coming from the top of the downrod.

STEP 3

⚠️ WARNING FAN FALL HAZARD

To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:

Tighten the setscrew with pliers. DO NOT HAND TIGHTEN.

Diagram Description: Steps for installing the downrod. Step 1 shows removing a setscrew. Step 2 shows passing wires and hand-tightening the downrod. Step 3 shows tightening the setscrew with pliers and a warning about fan fall hazard.

Hanging the Fan

Slide canopy over downrod and wires.

NOTICE: To prevent damage to fan, ALWAYS lift holding either the fan housing or the downrod.

Place the downrod ball into the slot in the ceiling bracket.

Progress Check: Your fan should look like this.

Diagram Description: An illustration shows the fan being lifted and hung onto the ceiling bracket by placing the downrod ball into the bracket's slot. The canopy is shown sliding over the downrod and wires.

Note: Fan style may vary.

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.

Have a single switch? Follow these steps:

⚠️ 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.

⚠️ 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.

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.

Have dual switches? Follow these steps:

Diagram Description: Wiring diagrams for single-switch and dual-switch setups. Shows connections between ceiling wires (white, black, ground) and fan wires (white, black, blue, ground). Includes warnings about grounding and electrical codes.

Installing the Canopy

Fit the canopy in place as shown.

Lift the canopy into place so that the screw holes are aligned.

Insert the two canopy screws found in the hardware bag.

Hunter Pro Tip: Let the tool do the work! A magnetic screwdriver will give you more visibility when securing the canopy.

Diagram Description: Illustration shows the canopy being lifted and aligned with screw holes on the ceiling bracket, followed by insertion of canopy screws.

Installing the Blades:

Insert grommets found in the hardware bag into the holes in the blades, then secure each blade to a blade arm with screws found in the hardware bag.

Repeat x4

IMPORTANT NOTE: Follow the instructions on the blade. Installing it incorrectly could result in your fan not functioning.

Lightly attach the blade arms to the motor with screws found in the hardware bag, then securely tighten after both screws are attached.

Repeat x4

Diagram Description: Steps for attaching blades. First, grommets are inserted into blades, and blades are attached to blade arms with screws. Then, blade arms are attached to the motor with screws.

Note: Fan style may vary.

Assembling the Light

STEP 1

Screw light kit screws from the hardware bag halfway into the motor housing. It does not matter which two screw holes you choose.

STEP 2

Feed the wire plug through the center hole of the upper switch housing, then wrap keyhole slots around the screws and twist counterclockwise.

STEP 3

Insert a third screw, found in the hardware bag, into place and then tighten all three screws.

⚠️ WARNING FAN FALL HAZARD

Make sure all three screws are tight to secure the upper switch housing to the mounting plate.

STEP 4

Connect the plugs from the upper and lower switch housings. Make sure to line up the colored markings on the connectors.

⚠️ WARNING FAN FALL HAZARD

Make sure all three screws are tight to secure the lower switch housing to the upper switch housing.

STEP 5

Partially install two of the light kit screws found in the hardware bag. Align the notches in the sides of the lower switch housing with the screws on the upper switch housing. Twist the lower switch housing clockwise to lock into place.

STEP 6

Install the last light kit screw. Tighten all three screws securely.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Blades will need to be rotated to access all screw holes.

Diagram Description: Step-by-step visual guide for assembling the light fixture. Includes connecting wires, securing housings with screws, and aligning notches.

Installing the Bulbs and Glass

Remove the socket rings from the sockets. Install the glass onto the sockets. Install the socket rings onto the sockets. Tighten them by turning clockwise by hand.

Note: Fan style may vary.

Installing the Pull Chains

Remove and discard the plastic connectors from the ends of the pull chains (if necessary), then connect the appropriate pull chain pendant to each of the short chains coming from the switch housing.

The fan pull chain controls the speed: from high to off.

The light pull chain controls the light fixture: on and off.

Repeat x2

Diagram Description: Illustration shows how to attach pull chain pendants to the fan and light pull chains. Explains the function of each pull chain.

Note: Fan style may vary.

Reversing the Fan

Ceiling fans work in two directions: downdraft (counterclockwise rotation) and updraft (clockwise rotation). To change the direction of air flow, turn the fan off and let it come to a complete stop. Slide the reversing switch to the opposite position. Restart the fan.

Updraft (clockwise rotation)

Creates a more indirect airflow. Updraft airflow is great for moving warm air downward.

Downdraft (counterclockwise rotation)

Creates a direct breeze and maximum cooling effect.

Diagram Description: Shows the fan's reverse switch and illustrates the two airflow directions: updraft (clockwise, warm air circulation) and downdraft (counterclockwise, cooling breeze).

Note: Fan style may vary.

Troubleshooting

Fan Doesn't Work

Excessive Wobbling

Noisy Operation

Hunter Pro Tip: Cleaning the Fan

Use soft brushes or cloths to prevent scratching. Cleaning products may damage the finishes.
