1. Locate the site for the hole directly below the joist or support  
brace that will hold the outlet box and fan.  
2. Cut a 4" diameter hole through the drywall or plaster of the  
ceiling as shown in Figure 6. You will use the hole to install the  
support brace and outlet box.  
CAUTION: All wiring must be in accordance with na-  
tional and local electrical codes and ANSI/NFPA 70. If you  
are unfamiliar with wiring, you should use a qualified elec-  
trician.  
1. Make sure the circuit breakers to the fan supply line leads and  
associated wall switch location are turned off. If you cannot  
lock the circuit breakers in the off position, securely fasten a  
prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.  
2. Thread the fan supply line through the outlet box so that the  
fan supply line extends at least 6" beyond the box as shown in

Your Hunter fan comes with an integrated light fixture assembly  
and an optional switch housing cap and plug button. This feature  
gives you the option of installing the fan with or without the in-  
cluded light fixture.  
1. Turn on electrical power to the fan.  
2. The fan pull chain controls power to the fan. The pull chain  
has four settings in sequence: High, Medium, Low and Off.  
Pull the chain slowly to change settings.  
Release slowly to prevent the chain from recoiling into the  
blades.  
1. Partially install two #6-32 x 3/8" housing assembly screws into  
the switch housing mounting plate as shown in Figure 26.  
2. Feed the upper plug connector through the center opening of  
the upper switch housing. See Figure 26.  
3. Align the keyhole slots in the upper switch housing with the  
housing assembly screws installed previously.  
4. Turn the upper switch housing counterclockwise until the  
housing assembly screws are firmly situated in the narrow end  
of the keyhole slots as shown in Figure 27. Install the one re-  
maining #6-32 x 3/8" housing assembly screw into the third  
hole in the upper switch housing. Tighten all three screws firmly.  
CAUTION: Make sure the upper switch housing is se-  
curely attached to the switch housing mounting plate. Fail-  
ure to properly attach and tighten all three housing as-  
sembly screws could result in the switch housing and light  
fixture falling.  
The chain uses a breakaway connector that separates if  
the chain is jerked. If this happens, simply reinsert the chain  
into the connector.  
3. The light pull chain controls power to the light. The pull chain  
has two settings: On and Off.  
4. Ceiling fans work best by blowing air downward (counterclock-  
wise blade rotation) in warm weather to cool the room with a  
direct breeze. In winter, having the fan draw air upward (clock-  
wise blade rotation) will distribute the warmer air trapped at  
the ceiling around the room without causing a draft. Refer to  
Figure 32.  
1. Connect the upper plug connector from the motor to the lower  
plug connector in the lower switch housing assembly. See Fig-  
ure 30.  
NOTE: Both plug connectors are polarized and will only fit to-  
gether one way. Make sure that both connectors are properly  
aligned before connecting them together. Incorrect connec-  
tion could cause improper operation and damage to the prod-  
uct.  
Figure 32 - Air flow patterns  
To change the direction of air flow, turn the fan off and let it  
come to a complete stop. Slide the reversing switch on the fan  
to the opposite position as shown in Figure 33. Restart fan.  
2. Place the lower switch housing assembly over the upper switch  
housing. Align the side screw holes in the upper and lower  
switch housings. Attach the lower switch housing to the up-  
per switch housing with three #6-32 x 3/8" housing assembly  
screws. See Figure 30.

Problem: Nothing happens; fan does not move.  
1. Turn power on, replace fuse, or reset breaker.  
For cleaning, a soft brush or lint-free cloth should be used to pre-  
vent scratching the finish. A vacuum cleaner brush nozzle can re-  
move heavier dust. Surface smudges or an accumulation of dirt  
and dust can easily be removed by using a mild detergent and a  
slightly dampened cloth. An artistic agent may be used, but never  
use abrasive cleaning agents as they will damage the finish.  
2. Loosen canopy, check all connections according to the  
wiring the fan section.  
3. Check the plug connection in the switch housing.  
4. Push motor reversing switch firmly up or down to ensure  
that the switch is engaged.  
5. Pull the pull chain to ensure it is on.  
6. Remove the shipping bumpers.  
Problem: Noisy operation.  
Wicker blades should be cleaned with a damp cloth. Do not hang  
this fan in outdoor conditions.  
1. Tighten the blade bracket screws until snug.  
2. Tighten the blade screws until snug.  
3. Check to see if the blade is cracked. If so, replace all the  
blades.  
4. Change to an approved speed control.  
5. Be sure that the glass is secure.  
6. Check and tighten the screws in the switch housing  
mounting plate and in the upper and lower switch hous-  
ing.  
Problem: Excessive wobbling.  
1. If your fan wobbles when operating, use the enclosed bal-  
ancing kit and instructions to balance the fan.  
2. Tighten all blade and/or blade iron screws.  
3. Turn power off, support fan very carefully, and check that  
the hanger ball is properly seated.
