18 Mounting Structure: Solid Beam<br />
<strong>Isis</strong> ®<br />
L-brackets are used used to mount the fan to a solid beam. Consult a structural engineer to ensure you have selected<br />
the correct mounting method for your building structure.<br />
WARNING: The fan can weigh up to 120 lbs (54.4 kg). The fan should not be installed unless the structure on which the<br />
fan is to be mounted is of sound construction, undamaged, and capable of supporting the loads of the fan and its method<br />
of attachment. A structural engineer should verify that the structure is adequate prior to fan installation. Verifying the<br />
stability of the mounting structure is the sole responsibility of the customer and/or end user, and <strong>Big</strong> <strong>Ass</strong> <strong>Fans</strong> hereby<br />
expressly disclaims any liability arising therefrom, or arising from the use of any materials or hardware other than those<br />
supplied by <strong>Big</strong> <strong>Ass</strong> <br />
1. Pre-drill suitable mounting beam<br />
Drill two Ø 7/16” (11 mm) holes in the mounting beam exactly 5-1/2” (14 cm) apart. Consult a structural engineer to determine the exact<br />
location of the mounting holes. Note: The holes should be drilled so that at least 1” (2.5 cm) of clearance will be available between the<br />
lower face of the mounting beam and the top of the upper mount to allow space when tightening the mounting bolts.<br />
2. Determine bracket orientation<br />
<strong>Big</strong> <strong>Ass</strong> <strong>Fans</strong> recommends orienting the L-brackets as shown below depending on the thickness of the mounting structure. The<br />
thickness of the structure cannot exceed 9-1/2” (24 cm).<br />
3-3/4” to 6-3/4” (95 mm to 171 mm) thickness 6-3/4” to 9-1/2” (171 mm to 241 mm) thickness<br />
