Builder's fans use several styles of fan blade irons (brack-
ets that hold the blade to the fan).
1. Your fan may include blade grommets (see Parts List).
If your fan has grommets, insert them by hand into
the holes as shown in Figure 7a.
2. Attach each blade to blade iron using three blade
assembly screws as shown in Figure 7b. Some fans
feature a decorative medallion as well as a blade
iron. Insert the assembly screws into the blade iron,
through the blade and into the medallion, with the
blade sandwiched between the blade iron and me-
dallion as shown in Figure 7c.
If you used grommets, the blades may appear slightly
loose after screws are tightened. This is normal.
3. Remove the blade mounting screws and rubber ship-
ping bumpers from the motor.
4. For each blade, insert one blade mounting screw
through the blade iron as shown in Figure 6d, and
attach lightly to the fan. Insert the second blade
mounting screw, then securely tighten both mount-
ing screws.
