INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR HUNTER ORIGINAL® CEILING FANS
Step 4: Hanging the Fan
CAUTIONS!
-
Be sure to tighten the pipe nipple shown in Figure 2 into the fan, tighten the hanger bracket onto the pipe, and tighten the two set screws as described in sub-step 2 to prevent the fan from falling.
-
Your fan may weigh up to 50 lbs. All of the following steps must be followed in order to ensure a secure mounting. Perform sub-steps 1- 4 with the motor resting in the liner for protection.
1. Take the hanger bracket from the sack parts and locate the pipe nipple (See Figure 2.). Feed the wires from the top of your motor through the pipe.
2. Back out the set screw in the neck of the motor housing and the hanger bracket so the pipe can be screwed in. Screw the pipe into the fan until tight (at least 4-1/2 turns). Feed the wire through the canopy and the canopy insert and let the canopy rest on the neck of the motor. Slide the canopy insert over the pipe.Feed the wire through the hanger bracket and screw the hanger bracket onto the pipe until tight (at least 3 turns). Then use pliers to tighten both the hanger bracket and the pipe together. Tighten the set screw in the motor housing with pliers. Securely tighten the set screw in the hanger bracket. See Figure 5.
3. Be sure the pin is centered in the rubber bushing. See Figures 6 and 7.
4. Lift the fan by the motor housing and hook the hanger bracket onto the pin in the rubber bushing. Make sure both ends of the pin are outside the hanger bracket. See Figure 7.
WARNING! Failure to perform these steps in the correct order may result in the fan falling.
