INSTALL THE MOUNTING BRACKET
Outlet Box
If your local electrical code requires the fan to be installed on a ceiling-mounted outlet box, the outlet box must be
suitable for fan support. If there is not an outlet box at the fan location, one should be installed on a ceiling joist or
beam and properly wired.
Concrete Ceiling
If installing your fan on a concrete ceiling, ensure power wiring has been routed to the fan site.
Low Profile Mount. Attach the mounting plate directly to the ceiling using four Ø 8 mm anchor bolts. If required by your
local building and safety code, install a Ø 14 mm anchor hook for the safety cable.
Standard Mount. Install the fan where there is a ceiling hook or other sufficient structural support. If there is not a hook
at the fan site, install a hanger plate using three Ø 12–12.5 mm anchor bolts. Do not use the mounting bracket supplied
with the fan. If required by your local building and safety code, install an Ø 8–8.5 mm anchor hook for the safety cable.
Universal Mount. Attach the mounting bracket directly to the ceiling using three Ø 6 mm anchor bolts. If required by
your local building and safety code, install an Ø 8 mm anchor hook for the safety cable.
Wood Ceiling Joist
If installing your fan on a wood ceiling joist, ensure power wiring has been routed to the fan site. Attach the mounting
plate or mounting bracket directly to the joist using two wood screws (not supplied). Big Ass Fans recommends using
corrosion-resistant 12-11 x 45 mm hex head timber screws with seal.
