Fit the Rotor Blade Assembly - The assembled rotor blades can now be fitted to the LE-450
chassis. This is done by offering the rotor hub plate against the drive shaft protruding from
the front of the chassis. M5 x 20 mm Hex Head screws should then be used to fix the rotor
hub in position using the six tapped holes in the drive shaft. Ensure that all screws are
securely tightened and that the rotor blades are fitted with the flat side of the blade facing
forwards. Thread-locking compound should be used on the screw threads.

Check the Blade Rotation - Once the blades have been fitted and secured to the chassis,
ensure that they rotate freely. Take this opportunity to check that all of the blade and hub
fixings are secure - see Fig-8.
