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.
