I bought the MB stubby 8 mm allen driver for around $8 and put it on a long breaker bar. Hold the fan with gloved hands and it is no problem. Make yourself a bolt turner out of a short section of 8 mm allen and two thin pieces of wood or metal similar to what gsxr shows as it makes life much easier and it can be done for just a few dollars. I used a yardstick I had around as the long end and a small (5") scrap of hardwood flooring with two holes drilled in either end. I cut off about an inch of an allen wrench, friction fit it in one hole of the scrap and bolted the other hole to an existing hole in the end of the yardstick (you know, the hole to hang the thing up). The thing works like a charm and the business end of it is only a few inches long and comes right off the yardstick.
