Step 6: Fan Blade Installation 11 Hunter Blades are packaged in sets, precisely matched and balanced. A. Attach wood blades to blade brackets using three screws for each blade. See Fig. 1.2A. If your blades have large holes, you must first insert the rubber grommets into the holes; See Fig. 1213. NOTE:. Grommets are usually assembled by hand. If you use a tool, make certain you do not damage the grommet or blade when inserting the grommets. Next assemble the blade to the blade bracket. Make sure all screws are tight to prevent vibration or wobbling. BLADE FIGURE 12B QFtomMET B. To isntall the blades to the motor, insert blade iron screw through hole in the blade iron.
