Installing the Ceiling Bracket
Use wood screws and
washers (included) when
securing to support structure
with approved electrical
outlet box. Drill 9/64” pilot
holes in support structure
to aid in securing ceiling
bracket with hardware found
in the hardware bag.
Use machine screws (provided
with outlet box) and washers
when securing to existing ceiling
fan-rated outlet box. Make sure
it is securely installed and is
acceptable for fan support of 31.8
kg (70 lbs) or less.

You have two options for installation. Pick which one works best for your location. Remove
any existing bracket prior to installation. Only use the provided Hunter ceiling bracket that
came in your fan’s box.
