INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR HUNTER ORIGINAL® CEILING FANS
Care and Maintenance
CAUTION! Before performing any maintenance on the fan, disconnect the power to the fan.
Lubrication
Once properly installed, your fan needs little attention, beyond checking the oil level. The oil is checked by unscrewing and removing the oil hole screw. If oil comes out of the hole, the oil level is within proper levels. If no oil comes out, complete the following steps:
-
Reinstall the oil hole screw.
-
Remove one blade iron/blade assembly from the motor housing by uninstalling the two blade armature screws.
-
Rotate the motor so that the open area where the blade iron/blade assembly you just removed is directly above the oil hole screw. This is done so that there is enough room to properly position the tube of oil when refilling.
-
Complete the steps in STEP 6: LUBRICATION to properly complete adding oil into the motor.
Cleaning
Take care when cleaning your fan. Never use an abrasive cleanser or brass polish. Use a damp cloth or sponge. Do not drip water or soap into the motor.
Blades should be wiped clean periodically to prevent dust buildup. Be careful not to bend the blade irons.
If blades are cracked or blade irons bent, do not attempt to repair them. Order replacement parts from your Hunter dealer.
