STEP 7 - ASSEMBLING FAN BLADES
Hunter fans use several styles of fan blade irons (brackets that hold the blade to the fan).
1.Your fan may include blade grom- mets (see Parts List). If your fan has grommets, insert them by hand into the holes as shown in Figure 7a.
2.Attach each blade to blade iron using three blade assembly screws as shown in Figure 7b. Some fans
Grommet
feature a decorative medallion as well as a blade iron. Insert the assembly screws into the blade iron, through the blade and into the medallion, with the blade sandwiched between the blade iron and medallion as shown in Figure 7c.
If you used grommets, the blades may appear slightly loose after screws are tightened. This is nor- mal.
3.Remove the blade mounting screws and rubber shipping bumpers from the motor.
