6 • Assembling the Blades

Hunter fans use several styles of fan blade irons (brackets that hold the blade to the fan).

6-1. Your fan may include blade grommets. If your fan has grommets, insert them by hand into the holes on the blades.

Step 6-1 (Detail)

6-2. Attach each blade to a blade iron using three blade assembly screws. If you used grommets, the blades may appear slightly loose after screws are tightened. This is normal.

6-3. Remove the blade mounting screws and rubber shipping bumpers

from the motor. Note: Some blade mounting screws are installed

in the motor to secure shipping blocks.

 

6-4. For each blade, insert one blade mounting screw through the blade iron, and attach lightly to the fan. Insert the second blade mounting screw, then securely tighten both mounting screws.

Note: The blades on this fan have been treated

with Hunter’s Dust Armor protection, making

 

the blades less likely to attract dust and dirt.

 

Use a dry or slightly damp lint free cloth to

 

clean the blades. Do not use a furniture polish

 

or any other cleaners that leave any residue, as

 

they will damage the protective Dust Armor

 

on the blades.
