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. Some blade mounting screws are installed in the motor to
secure shipping blocks. Remove the blade mounting screws and
rubber bumpers from the motor. Save the screws and discard the
bumpers.
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.
