Step 9: Operation of Fan
A.
Turn electrical service on at main panel.
B.
Switch operates in this sequence: "High," "Medium,"
"Low," "Off." Pull chain slowly to operate. Also, release the
chain slowly so as to prevent chain from flying up into blades,
possibly resulting in damage to blades, or pull chain. The break-
away connector is designed to separate from the chain at a pre-
determined force. If this separation occurs, simply reinsert the
connector. It can be reused again and again. See Figure 9.
C.
Motor is electrically reversible. When first operating fan,
determine direction of air flow. If you wish to change direction,
switch fan off and allow to stop. Slide reversing switch to the
opposite position and switch fan back on. See Figure 9.
Speed Control
As an option, a wall mounted speed control switch is available
from your Hunter dealer.
PROBLEM
1. Nothing happens;
fan does not move.*
*NOTE: If blades will not turn by hand, contact your nearest service representative.
2. Noisy operation.
3. Excessive wobbling.
When switching from medium to low speed, you may notice some fan wobble. When fan speed stabilizes at low speed, wobble will disappear.
