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

Note: The blades on this fan have been
treated with Hunter’s Dust Armor
protection, making the blades less likely
to attract dust and dirt. Use a dry or
slightly damp lint free cloth to clean the
blades. Do not use a furniture polish or
any other cleaners that leave any residue,
as they will damage the protective Dust
Armor on the blades.
