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 16 blade attachment screws and washers
and 16 decorative nuts in one of the hardware
packs. Place blade arm on
TOPSIDE
of blade,
aligning holes in blade arm with holes in blade as
shown. [
Be sure to note label on blade indicating
THIS SIDE UP
and turn blade so that label faces up
].
Insert 4 decoratvie nuts from
UNDERSIDE
of blade
(
i.e., the side that will face the floor
), making sure to
completely insert
each decorative nut so that the
blade arm can be attached correctly. Insert 4 blade
attachment screws (along with washers) from
TOPSIDE
of blade with fingers first and then
tighten screws securely with a Phillips screwdriver.
Repeat procedure for remaining blades.
Remove blade arm screws and lock washers from
fan motor and set aside. [
WARNING
: Do NOT
remove the 4 screws located on the outer rim of
the motor housing-- doing so or any attempt at
doing so will void the warranty.] Align blade arm
holes with motor screw holes and attach blade
arm with lock washers and blade arm screws.
Before securing screws permanently, repeat this
procedure with remaining blade arms. Secure all
screws.
