set on each blade screw prior to installing
blades.
Locate 15 blade attachment screws and washers
in hardware pack. 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 Phillips
screwdriver. Repeat procedure for the remaining

). Align blade
arm holes with motor screw holes and attach
blade arm with lock washers and blade arm
screws. Before securing screws permanently,
repeat procedure with remaining blade arms.
Securely tighten all screws.
