cautions and warnings
•
Read entire booklet carefully before beginning instal-
lation. Save these instructions.
•
Use only Hunter replacement parts.
•
To reduce the risk of personal injury, attach the fan
directly to the support structure of the building ac-
cording to these instructions, and use only the hard-
ware supplied.
•
To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing
your fan, disconnect the power by turning off the cir-
cuit breakers to the outlet box and associated wall-
switch location. If you cannot lock the circuit break-
ers in the off position, securely fasten a prominent
warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
•
All wiring must be in accordance with national and
local electrical codes and ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are
unfamiliar with wiring, you should use a qualified elec-
trician.
•
To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the
blade attachment system when installing, balancing,
or cleaning the fan. Never insert foreign objects be-
tween rotating fan blades.
•
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or motor
damage, do not use a solid-state speed control with
this fan. Use only Hunter speed controls.

ries, follow the instructions included with each product. For quiet
and optimum performance of your Hunter fan, use only Hunter
speed controls.
checking your fan parts
Carefully unpack your fan to avoid damage to the fan parts. Check
for any shipping damage to the motor or fan blades. If one of the
fan blades was damaged in shipment, return all the blades for re-
placement.
NOTE: If you are installing more than one fan, keep the fan blades
in sets, as they were shipped.
If any parts are missing or damaged, contact your Hunter dealer or
call Hunter Parts Department at 888-830-1326.
choosing your mounting position
You can install your Hunter fan in one of two ways. The steps in
this manual include specific instructions for the fan mounting
method of your choice.
Standard Mounting (Figure 1) hangs from the ceiling by a downrod
(included), for ceilings 8 feet or higher. For ceilings higher than 8
feet, you can purchase Hunter extension downrods. All Hunter
fans use sturdy 3/4" diameter pipe to assure stability and wobble-
free performance.
