Installation and Operation Manual for Installers Choice® Ceiling Fans

STEP 7 - ASSEMBLING FAN BLADES

Builder's fans use several styles of fan blade irons (brackets 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 medallion 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 shipping bumpers from the motor.

4. For each blade, insert one blade mounting screw through the blade iron as shown in Figure 7d, and attach lightly to the fan. Insert the second blade mounting screw, then securely tighten both mounting screws.
