What happens here
Using a Genie Personnel Lift, Kevin carefully raises the pre-assembled I-beam bracket to the ceiling. He positions it against the chosen I-beam and securely fastens it using bolts tightened with a Milwaukee Impact Driver. During this step, the host briefly pauses to address a broken bolt on their come-along tool, highlighting the importance of having backup equipment or parts on hand for unexpected issues.
Goal: Securely attach the fan's I-beam mounting bracket to the ceiling structure.
