Installing Guy Wires
WARNING: Disconnect power to the fan before installing the guy wires.
AVERTISSEMENT : S’assurer que le ventilateur est hors tension avant d’installer les câbles de retenue.
Guy wires may not be included in your fan order. They are intended to constrain the fan’s lateral movement and are
only included with all fans that have extension tubes 4 ft (1.2 m) or greater in length. Depending on the conditions at the
installation site, guy wires may be needed for fans with shorter tubes to prevent any lateral movement. If guy wires are
needed and were not included with your fan order, contact Big Ass Fans Customer Service at 1-877-BIG-FANS.

Attach the (4) locking carabiners to the guy wire brackets on the
main fan unit as shown. Securely tighten the carabiners.

accordingly. Fully tighten the set screw to secure the clamp.
For best results, the guy wires should be installed at 45° in the X-Y, Y-Z, and
X-Z planes as shown below. If the angle deviates by more than 15°, contact
Customer Service at 1-877-BIG-FANS for assistance.
Fasten the small eyebolt and nut onto the beam clamp. The nut will be on the
outside of the beam clamp.
Loop the guy wire through its crimped end to secure it to the eyebolt as
shown on the right.
