Notice: Failure to heat the fan hub in hot tap water before installation will result in cooling fan failure due to cracking. Allowing the heated fan to
cool for more than one minute prior to installation will also result in failure due to cracking.
Important: Using hot tap water at a minimum of 49°C (120°F), hold the new fan blade hub under the running water for a minimum of 60
seconds to heat the fan blade to the temperature of the water.
Immediately after heating, position the fan blade on the fan motor drive plate.
4. Install the new engine cooling fan blade.
Important: Hold the fan blade to prevent rotation.
5. Using the GE-47827 turn the fan motor drive plate in the same direction of the arrow on the fan blade until the fan motor drive plate engages to
the fan blade. Full engagement is attained when the motor drive plate fully occupies the three slots in the face of the fan blade.
6. Rotate the cooling fan blade to ensure proper rotation.
7. Install the fan shroud assembly to the vehicle. Refer to Fan Shroud Replacement (See: Fan Shroud/Service and Repair) .
