Pre-Installation
Pre- Installation
Select installation site: Normally this is near the center of the room, often replacing a light fixture. Make certain that ample clearance is left for the rotating fan blades. For maximum efficiency, no obstruction (walls, posts, etc.) should be within 24” of the tips of the blades (see Fig. 1).
Your Hunter fan comes with the proper hardware to hang the fan from a 9 foot ceiling so the fan blades will be 17 1/4” from the ceiling and approximately 7 feet from the floor (see Fig. 1).
NOTE: On vaulted ceilings, up to 45° pitch, you may want to use the Hunter Vaulted Ceiling Mounting Kit (22174). This kit can be purchased via our website or our parts and service number provided on page 15 of this manual.
! CAUTION !
NEVER LIFT THE MOTOR BY THE WIRES.
LET MOTOR REST IN THE CARTON LINER FOR PROTECTION.
