Assembling The Fan - Hunter 42686-01 Owner's Manual And Installation Manual

You can assemble your fan for standard mounting (steps 3-1 – 3-2) or
for low profile mounting (steps 3-3 – 3-4).
3-1. To assemble fan to hang down from a flat or angled ceiling, insert
the downrod through the canopy. Feed the wires from the fan
through the downrod.
3-2. Loosen the setscrew on the adapter to install the pipe and ball
assembly. Note: When the pipe and ball assembly is fully installed,
2-3 threads on the pipe will still be visible; this is normal. Securely
retighten the setscrew with a wrench or pliers. Skip to Step 3-5.
CAUTION: The adapter has a special coating on the threads. Do
not remove this coating; the coating prevents the downrod from
unscrewing. Once assembled, do not remove the downrod.
3-3. Place the low profile washer into the canopy. Be sure the green
ground wire is pointing up toward the ceiling.
Note: For low profile mounting, the downrod is replaced with the
low profile washer. See Steps 3-3 – 3-4.
3-4. Align the holes in the washer with the holes in the adapter.
Assemble securely with three #8-32 x 1" screws.
3-5. Raise the fan and align the slots in the canopy with the tabs on the
ceiling plate. Go to 4 • Wiring the Fan.
WARNING: Fan may fall if not assembled as directed in these
installation instructions.
