The ceiling fan blades come in two parts. The blades usually have three holes in one end of the blade for mounting. Note that the two sides of the blades may have different colors or designs for a choice by the consumer. These blades attach to metal blade brackets, which will be connected to the fan. To connect them, use the proper screws provided and be sure to use and gaskets or washers that are required by the instruction manual.
