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.

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.
