Hunter waldon ceiling fan installation

The only difference is instead of capping the end of the blue wire in step 4, you'll use a wire nut to connect the second ungrounded light wire from the ceiling to the blue wire from the fan. Most Hunter ceiling fans come equipped with either a preinstalled or separate remote receiver. If you're wondering how to wire a ceiling fan with a separate remote receiver, use the wire nuts to:. Connect the black ungrounded wire from the ceiling to the black wire from the receiver. Connect the white grounded wire from the ceiling to both the white wire from the receiver and the white wire from the fan.

Connect the yellow wire from the receiver to the black wire from the fan. Connect the blue wire from the receiver to the blue wire from the fan. If you're installing a ceiling fan that requires a downrod, you'll need to finish installing the canopy. If you're installing a low profile ceiling fan, you'll need to finish installing the motor housing. Lift the canopy into place, making sure the triangular openings and screw holes are aligned.

Using a screwdriver, insert and securely tighten the canopy screws. A magnetic screwdriver will give you more visibility when securing the canopy. Raise the motor housing up until it's correctly positioned over the motor and ceiling brackets.

Rotate the motor housing until the screw holes are aligned with the holes on the bracket. The indentation inside the housing should lock into place with the notch inside the ceiling bracket.

Hold the motor housing in place. Use a screwdriver to insert and tightly secure the four motor housing screws. Your Hunter fan comes with the necessary parts you'll need to install the blades. There are three common blade installation methods for Hunter ceiling fans:. Use the respective screws to attach each blade to the blade irons. Position the blade irons with the motor, making sure all screw holes are properly aligned. Lightly hand-tighten the screws, then use a screwdriver to securely tighten the screws.

Insert the blades into the openings and align the hole openings in the blades with the blade irons. Attach each blade to a blade iron using the three provided blade washers and blade assembly screws. Make sure the screws are secured tightly. Squeeze the blade and the blade iron post together.

Note that the flared tops of the blade iron posts will be fully visible above the blade when properly assembled. To assemble a fan with a lighting kit, first identify if your fan has a Quick Connect feature by examining the switch housing. Hunter Quick Connect fans have a distinct locking mechanism located on the switch housing. These fans also have a ring that surrounds the switch housing in the middle. Hunter fans without Quick Connect technology do not have either feature.

Connect the fan and light fixture plugs together. Make sure to align the colored markings on the connectors.

Push the connectors and the extra wire into the hole located at the top of the light fixture. Carefully connect the light fixture to the bottom of the fan. Make sure the holes on the mounting ring at the top of the fixture are aligned with the spaces in the mounting bracket on the bottom of the fan. While holding the body of the fan still, turn the light fixture clockwise to engage the locking pin. Listen for a clicking sound to verify that the locking pin is securely in place.

After installing the glass, reinstall the light rings into the sockets. Use the socket ring glass tool that came with your fan to turn the light rings clockwise until they're tightened. Choose any two holes in the switch housing mounting plate to screw two of the housing assembly screws halfway. Feed the wire connector through the center of the upper switch housing.

Wrap the keyhole slots around the screws then twist counterclockwise. Use a screwdriver to install the third screw then tighten the remaining two screws. Connect the upper and lower switch housing together using the plug connectors, making sure to line up the colored markings. Locate the notches in the sides of the lower switch housing and align them with the screws located on the upper switch housing. Lock the switch housing into place by twisting the lower portion clockwise.

Using a screwdriver, install the third housing screw. Tighten all the screws. To install the light shades, first, loosen the thumbscrews. Then, lift each shade to the light fixture and insert and tighten each thumbscrew. Connect the pull chain pendants to the appropriate short chains coming from the switch housing. Connect the fan and light fixture connectors. Make sure you line up the colored markings on the connectors.

Secure the connectors by pushing the connectors and extra wire into the hole located at the top of the light fixture. This step will ensure that the fan and light fixture are successfully mounted. Carefully lift the light fixture and position it at the bottom of the fan. Make sure the holes on the mounting ring located on the top of the light fixture are aligned with the spaces in the mounting bracket located on the bottom.

Listen for the clicking sound to verify the connection is secure. Lift the globe and use the provided three thumb screws to attach it to the light fixture. Tighten the thumbscrews by hand. Feed the fan pull chain through the hole at the bottom of the light kit. Position both the globe and globe keeper against the metal plate, keeping them flush. Feed the light pull chain through the hole located in the center of the finial cap.

Then, feed the fan pull chain through the hole located in the side of the cap. Feed only the light pull chain through the finial. Attach the finial to the threaded rod and tighten by hand. Attach the short chains coming from the switch housing to the appropriate pull chain pendants. A no-light cap covers the portion of the fan where a light kit would normally be installed.

If you'd rather use a no-light cap instead of a light kit, use these steps to properly install it. Remove the two screws on the light kit that connect the light kit to the lower switch housing. Disconnect the blue and white wires inside the light kit and lower switch housing.

To safely cap off wires not being used, install the dummy terminal included with the light cap. Attach the terminal to the ends of each wire located in the lower switch housing. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to install the switch housing cap with the two switch housing screws you previously removed earlier.

Connect the lower and upper switch housing with the connectors. Make sure you align the colored markings on the connectors. Carefully lift the switch housing and position it at the bottom of the fan. Position the holes on the mounting ring located at the top of the switch housing with the spaces in the mounting bracket located on the bottom of the fan. While holding the body of the fan as still as possible, engage the locking pin by turning the light fixture clockwise. Listen for a clicking sound to verify the connection is secure.

Hunter offers a variety of ceiling fan controls that make it simple to control your fan and light. Most handheld remotes and wall controls come pre-paired to the ceiling fan. Handheld remotes let you conveniently control your fan's features.

Follow these steps to use your handheld ceiling fan remote:. To change the direction of the fan, press and hold the fan button. To turn the ceiling fan light on and off, press the light button.
