Read this entire manual thoroughly before

• To avoid possible electrical shock, before
wiring fan, disconnect power by turn-
ing off the circuit breakers both to the
outlet box and to its associated wall
switch location. If you cannot lock the
circuit breakers in the off position, se-
curely fasten a prominent warning de-
vice, such as a tag, to the service panel.
• All wiring must be in accordance with
national and local electrical codes. If you
are unfamiliar with wiring, you should
use a qualified electrician.
• To reduce the risk of personal injury, in-
stall the fan only to the building struc-
ture according to these instructions and
use only the hardware supplied.
• NEVER REST THE FAN ON THE SWITCH
HOUSING. As you prepare the fan for
installation, rest the motor in the liner in
which it was packed.
• Be sure to put full contents of the oil tube
into the fan according to the instructions.
• If this fan is used as a replacement for an
Original Old-Tyme nonreversible fan, it
must be installed per the instructions in-
cluded with this fan. DO NOT HANG THIS
FAN ON A SINGLE "J" HOOK. Failure to
do so could result in the fan falling.
• To reduce the risk of noise and to ensure
proper fan operation, do not use a solid-
state speed control with this fan. Use
Hunter speed controls for Hunter Origi-
nals only.
