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
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
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.
