Step 8: Fan Blade Assembly,

Installation, and Balancing

Hunter fans use several styles of fan blade irons (brackets that hold
the blade to the fan).
1. Your fan may include blade grommets. If your fan has grommets,

insert them by hand into the holes on the blades as shown in
Figure 8.

2. Attach each blade to blade iron using three blade assembly

screws as shown in Figure 8A. 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 medallion as
shown in Figure 8B.

If you used grommets, the blades may appear slightly loose after
screws are tightened. is is normal.

3. Remove the blade mounting screws and rubber shipping

bumpers from the motor.

4. For each blade, insert one blade mounting screw through the

blade iron as shown in Figure 8C, and attach lightly to the fan.
Insert the second blade mounting screw, then securely tighten
both mounting screws.
