WARNING
: To reduce the risk of serious bodily
injury,
DO NOT use power tools to assemble the
blades. If screws are overtightened, blades may
crack and break.
Time Saver:
Washers for blade screws can be set
on each blade screw prior to installing blades.
Locate 15 blade attachment screws/washers in
hardware pack. Hold blade arm up to blade and
align holes. Insert 3 blade attachment screws
(along with washers) with fingers first and then
tighten screws securely with a Phillips
screwdriver. Repeat procedure for the remaining
blades.
Remove blade arm screws and lock washers
from underside of motor. If plastic motor locks
are installed with blade arm screws, discard
plastic motor locks (
save blade arm screws and
lock washers to secure blade arms
).
Align blade
arm holes with motor screw holes and attach
blade arm with lock washers and blade arm
screws. Before securing screws permanently,
repeat procedure with remaining blade arms.
Securely tighten all screws.
