STEP 1 - GETTING READY

GATHERING THE TOOLS
You need the following tools to in-
stall the fan:
• Electric drill with 9/64" bit and
masonry bit
• Standard screwdriver
• Phillips-head screwdriver
• Wrench or pliers
• Two M5 x 30 mm expansion an-
chors (for concrete ceilings only)
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
Consider using Hunter's optional ac-
cessories, such as a wall-mounted or
remote speed control. Follow the in-
structions for installation and use in-
cluded with each Hunter accessory.
For quiet and optimum performance
of your Hunter fan, use only Hunter
speed controls.

PREPARING THE FAN SITE
Reliable operation, efficiency, and
maximum energy savings depend
upon proper placement and attach-
ment of the fan. For this reason, we
have included a separate booklet —
"Guide to Choosing and Preparing
a Ceiling Fan Site" — to help you
select the best location for your fan.
The booklet also provides informa-
tion to ensure your fan support and
electric outlet box meet UL-approved
safety codes for ceiling fans.
The instructions in this installation
manual assume that you have used
the "Guide to Choosing and Prepar-
ing a Ceiling Fan Site" to pick the
fan location and make certain the
proper fan support and outlet box
are installed.
CHECKING YOUR FAN PARTS
Carefully unpack your fan parts to
avoid damage. Check for shipping
damage. If one of the fan blades is
damaged, return all blades for re-
placement.
Hint: If installing more than one fan,
keep the fan blades in sets, as
shipped.
