8. Blade Assembly.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious
bodily injury,
DO NOT use power tools to
assemble the blades. If screws are
overtightened, blades may crack and break.
Time Saver: Washers for blade screws can be
set on each blade screw prior to installing
blades.
Locate 15 blade attachment screws and
washers in one of the hardware packs. Hold
blade arm up to blade and align holes. Insert
3 blade attachment screws (along with
washers) with fingers first and then tighten
screws securely with a Phillips screwdriver.
Repeat procedure for the remaining blades.
Remove blade arm screws and lock washers
from underside of motor. If plastic motor
locks are installed with blade arm screws,
discard plastic motor locks (save blade arm
screws and lock washers to secure blade arms).
Align blade arm holes with motor screw
holes and attach blade arm with lock
washers and blade arm screws. Before
securing screws permanently, repeat this
procedure with remaining blade arms.
Secure all screws.
NOTE: Tighten blade arm screws twice a year.
