Hunter's plastic breakaway chain connector

[graham01]

Well the Hunter fan install is fine, done a few before, but now I'm defeated! Just how does that breakaway plastic connector for the pullchain connect to the chain?

I can see the two parts plug together but short of glue, I have no idea on how the chain joins to the plastic parts.

This, I can tell, is going to be one of those real obvious ones and I'll feel stupid for not being able to see it - but it happens.

I just put in another Hunter fan and in this case had to connect wires from the lighting assembly to the lighting box. These wires were fitted with these little plug-in connectors.

In the previous fan, there were a couple of these loose in the kit, but no use for them. These were the parts I assumed were the plastic breakaway connector. Now I realise that the "breakaway connectors" were just the usual chain connectors but in plastic.

OK, feeling dumb but wiser,

I'm glad you were able to answer your own question for yourself, and us. I had no idea. Thanks for reporting back.
