Hunter Dempsey, 50284, 59216, 59217, 59446, 52388 Manual

Here is what comes in your box

We recommend that you pull everything out of the box and lay it out. We have grouped the drawn components below with the hardware you'll need for those parts. The screws below are drawn to scale to make it easier to identify what piece of hardware is needed to install each component.

Hunter Pro Tip:
Do not discard the hardware bags or mix parts from different bags. Make note of the symbol printed on each hardware bag. The symbols can be used to identify the appropriate hardware for each step.

Here are the tools you'll need to complete your installation:

OPTIONAL
If mounting to a support structure, you will also need these tools.

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:

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

Checking the Ceiling Angle

If you have a flat ceiling:
Hang your fan by a standard downrod. Some fans come with a shorter downrod for a Low Profile installation.

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)

Angled Mounting

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

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!

Hunter Pro Tip:
The machine screws are the ones that came with your outlet box.

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.
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.

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.

FAN FALL HAZARD
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:

• ALWAYS tighten setscrew with pliers.
• DO NOT hand tighten setscrew.
• CHECK the setscrew is tight using pliers each time you change fan direction.

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.
NOTICE
The Exeter ceiling fan is designed to be operated by the included remote. Keep your switches in the "On" position to ensure proper functionality.
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.

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. Make sure that the wires are still attached to the wire nuts.

Installing the Canopy

Installing the Blades

Attach each blade to a blade iron using three blade washers, found in the hardware bag, and three blade assembly screws, found in the hardware bag.
Repeat x4

Assembling the Light Kit

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

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

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

Screw two housing assembly screws from the hardware bag halfway into the upper switch housing. It does not matter which two screw holes you choose.

Connect the plugs from the upper and lower switch housings. Make sure to line up the colored markings on the connectors. Wrap light kit keyhole slots around the screws and twist counterclockwise.

Insert the third screw, found in the bag of materials, into place and tighten the three screws.

Installing the Glass

FAN FALL HAZARD
Make sure all screws are tight to secure the light fixture.

Install the included bulbs into the sockets. When necessary, replace with bulbs of same wattage.

Lift the globe and align the notches in the globe with the tabs in the light kit.

Attach the globe by lifting and turning clockwise one third of a full turn of the glass until it stops.

NOTE: Check to ensure proper engagement.

GLASS FALL HAZARD
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH, make sure that glass is properly secured.

Preparing the Remote Control

The remote control is already paired for use.
To access the battery compartment, remove the small Phillips head screw that secures the battery door to the transmitter assembly. The battery should be installed with the positive (+) side up. Replace with a CR2032 battery when necessary.

The remote transmitter should already be paired to the receiver and ready to use.

Note: If your need to pair your remote, turn fan power off and back on at the wall switch. Within 3 minutes, press and hold both the Fan Off button and the High button for 4 seconds to pair the remote. To prevent faulty operation, please ensure all other ceiling fans within range are turned off at the wall switch while pairing.

For your convenience, a remote function card is packed in with your remote.
To turn on fan, press a fan speed button. Speeds range from off (0) to high (3). Quickly press the Light button to turn the lights off and on.

Controlling Your 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. The reversing switch is located inside the light fixture. It can only be accessed when the glass is removed. 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.

Troubleshooting

Fan Doesn't Work

• Make sure power switch is on.
• Push the motor reversing switch firmly left or right to ensure that it is engaged.
• Check the circuit breaker to ensure the power is turned on.
• Make sure the blades spin freely.
• Turn off power from the circuit breaker, then loosen the canopy and check all the connections according to the wiring diagram.
• Check the plug connection in the switch housing.

Excessive Wobbling

• Make sure the blades are properly installed on the blade iron posts.
• Turn the power off, support the fan carefully, and check that the hanger ball is properly seated.

Noisy Operation

• Make sure the blades are properly installed.
• Check to see if any of the blades are cracked. If so, replace all of the blades.

Remote Control of Fan is Erratic

• Make sure the battery is installed correctly.
• Install a fresh battery.

Remote Only Works Close to Fan

• Change battery.

Remote Pairing Issues

1. To prevent faulty operation, please ensure all other ceiling fans within range are turned off at the wall switch while pairing.
2. If your need to pair your remote, turn fan power off and back on at the wall switch. Within 3 minutes, press and hold both the Fan Off button and the High button for 4 seconds to pair the remote.
