Bushing Pin Min. 84" to floor Fig. 7 Step 5: Wiring instructions and canopy installation CAUTION: BE CERTAIN THAT ELECTRICITY IS TURNED OFF AT THE MAIN PANEL BEFORE ANY WIRING IS DONE. Before you do the final wiring, you should decide how you want to control your fan-with pull cord, a wall switch or a speed control. At this point, you should also decide if you want to add a light adaptor kit. Separate wiring instructions for Hunter accessories are included in accessory packages. All wiring must conform to national and local codes which may vary by locale. A. Connect black electrical supply lead to the black motor lead and the black with white stripe motor lead (See note). Connect the white elec- trical supply lead to the white motor lead. Connect ground wire to green screw on side of hanger bracket. See Fig. 8 Figure 8. NOTE: If a separate wall switch will be used to control a lighting accessory, connect the black wire with a white stripe to the wall switch lead, following wiring instructions included with the accessory. The wall switch must be a listed general-use switch. CAUTION: NO BARE WIRE OR WIRE STRANDS SHOULD BE VISIBLE AFTER MAKING CONNECTIONS. After making the wire connections, the wires should be spread apart with the white and the green wires on one side of the outlet box, and the black and black & white wires on the other side of the box. The splices should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box. Canopy installation Assemble canopy halves around pipe. Screw together loosely using two screws provided in parts bag. (Brass and antique brass canopies are shipped assembled.) Position canopy close to Set ceiling. Tighten both assembly screws Screw and SCREW IN the canopy set screw. Assembly See Figure 9. NOTE: If a Vaulted Ceiling Screw Mounting Kit is used, follow the can- Fig 9 opy instructions provided with the kit. Fig 10 Step 6: Lubrication Adding oil Your fan has been shipped without oil in the motor. A 1-ounce tube of high grade SAE 10 non-detergent oil is packaged in the sack parts. All the oil in the tube must be put into the fan. Cut the tip off the tube and place the tube into the oil hole. To avoid overflowing during filling, allow oil to gravity flow about one minute to fill the oil reservoir. (It may be necessary to puncture the tube to allow air in.)
