Your fan was supplied with two complete sets of blades
that can be simply swapped in a short time. You will need
a step ladder, the other set of blades and a #2 phillips screw
driver to make the switch.
Position the step ladder within reach of the ceiling fan.

Climb the ladder and position yourself so that you can see
all three #10-24 x 0.4 in. / 1.0 cm. flange head screws

screw driver to remove all three screws. Remove the fan

Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned
off at the main fuse or circuit breaker box before
wiring. All wiring must be in accordance with
National and Local codes and the ceiling fan must be
properly grounded as a precaution against possible
electrical shock.

WARNING
Replacing the installed blades with the other blade set is simple and can be accomplished
without removing the fan from the ceiling.
