STEP 1 - GETTING READY
GATHERING THE TOOLS
You will need the following tools for installing the fan:
•Electric drill with 9/64" bit
•Standard screwdriver
•Phillips-head screwdriver
•Wrench or pliers
PREPARING THE FAN SITE
Ceiling height must be a minimum of 9 feet.
The location of a ceiling fan and how the fan is attached to the build- ing structure are essential for reli- able operation, maximum effi- ciency, and energy savings. For this reason, we have included a sepa- rate booklet — “Guide to Choos- ing and Preparing a Ceiling Fan
Site” — to help you select the best location for your fan. The booklet also provides information to ensure your fan support and electric out- let box meet
The instructions in this installation manual assume that you have used “Guide to Choosing and Preparing a Ceiling Fan Site” to pick the fan location and make certain the proper fan support and outlet box are in- stalled.
CHECKING YOUR FAN PARTS
Carefully unpack your fan to avoid damage to the fan parts. Check for any shipping damage to the motor or fan blades. If one of the fan blades was damaged in shipment, return all the blades for replacement.
Hint: If you are installing more than one fan, keep the fan blades in sets, as they were shipped.
If any parts are missing or damaged, contact your Hunter dealer or call Hunter Parts Department at
