Mark Centers Of Column & Safety Cable Mount; Locate Safety Cable Height (On Column); Attach Front Safety Cable Attachment Channel - BIG ASS FANS Pivot 180 Installation Manual

1. Mark centers of column & safety cable mount
Measure the width of the column and mark the center. Measure the width of the front
safety cable attachment channel and mark the center.

2. Locate safety cable height (on column)

Locate the appropriate height on the column from which the safety cable should be
suspended. Big Ass Fans recommends mounting the safety cable mount about 35" (89
cm) above the fan depending on the position of the fan.

3. Attach front safety cable attachment channel

Install the flange spacers only if the thickness of the column flange exceeds 3/8" (1 cm). The mounting holes on the
spacer are closer to one side than the other. Make sure this side is facing the column.
1. Clamp the front attachment channel to the front of the column
with C-clamps so that the center marks on both the attachment
channels and the column are aligned and level.
2. Insert a threaded rod assembly in the appropriate mounting
hole on the front attachment channel. Secure the threaded rod
assembly with the Front Attachment Channel Hardware. Using
a torque wrench with a deep well 3/4" socket, torque the Nylock
nut to 40 ft·lb (54.2 N·m). Refer to the illustration to the right.
3. On the other side of the front attachment channel, install the (1)
remaining threaded rod assembly and torque to 40 ft·lb
(54.2 N·m). Be sure the orientation of the beam clips and
spacers (if needed) is as shown in the illustration
4. Once all nuts have been torqued to 40 ft·lb (54.2 N·m), remove
the C-clamps.
