8. Blade Assembly.
WARNING
: To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury,
DO NOT use power tools to assemble the blades. If
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 and washers in
one of the hardware packs. Hold blade arm up to blade
and align holes. (Be sure to install blades with
ridged-side facing up and flat side facing the floor).
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
this procedure with remaining blade arms. Securely
tighten all screws.
Note
: Tighten blade arm screws twice a year.
