REMOVING THE FAN DRIVE


NOTE The procedure for removing the Fan Drive varies from one vehicle to another. Refer to the vehicles service manual for a detailed description of this process. In general, proceed as follows: 1. Turn the vehicle ignition off, apply the vehicles parking brake, and block the vehicles wheels. NOTE Protect the radiator from possible damage from the fan during fan removal and fan drive installation. 2. Bleed the air from the vehicles reservoir and, if possible, disconnect the air hose from the Fan Drive. 3. Loosen or remove the drive belts. 4. Remove the Fan Drive/Fan sub assembly from the Vehicle.

DISASSEMBLING THE FAN DRIVE

Tools Required
1 - 1/16 27mm Hex Socket 2 Socket Wrench T55 Torx Plus Bit (F994352) T27 Torx Bit Pry Bar/Fan Retaining Ring Pliers Screwdrivers 2.5mm Allen Wrench

DiSASSEmBLy Fan Mounting Friction Disc Removal and Inspection


1. Place the Fan Drive in a vice and clamp the Journal Bracket tight. NOTE Applying 80-120 PSI air pressure to the Fan Drive air inlet. This will aid in removal of the Fan Mounting Friction Disc (FMFD). 2. Use a fan blade for leverage to remove Fan Mounting Friction Disc by rst removing the Jam Nut (left-hand thread), then loosening the Jack Bolt (left-hand thread) by turning the jack bolt counter-clockwise using a T55 Torx Plus Bit (Part #F994352). It is recommended that another person hold the fan blade to aid in removing the fan mounting friction disc due to awkward layout of the FMFD/fan assembly. 3. Unscrew the Fan Mounting Friction Disc from the Jack Bolt. Inspect the FMFD for wear or damage. (See examples below)

Spring Housing / Piston Assembly Removal


4. Hand tighten the Cage Nut (from the Repair Kit) onto the Jack Bolt (left hand thread) over the Spring Housing. The Cage Nut will keep the Spring Housing and Piston together as an assembly. It will also maintain pressure on the internal Springs after the Button Head Screws are removed. WARNING Remove air pressure from the unit before proceeding to step 5. DANGER Failure to release air pressure may result in serious personal injury. WARNING Do not disassemble the spring housing. Personal injury could occur. This item is non-repairable. 5. Remove the 8 Button Head Screws and the friction Liner using a T27 Torx Bit. NOTE If you are installing either a Friction Liner Kit (Part#F994349) , or a Fan Mounting Friction Disc Kit, skip to page 14, step 16. 6. Remove the Spring Housing/Piston Assembly. 7. Examine the inside of the Air Chamber for signs of moisture and/or contaminants. WARNING The Air Chamber should be clean and moisture free (with the exception of the seal lubricant) . If not, a problem may exist in the vehicle air system and must be corrected before the Fan Drive is reinstalled.

Sheave & Sheave Bearings


1. Fully support the Sheave and press the Bearings out of the Sheave. NOTE Some Models of the DRIVEMASTER Fan Drive contain Bearing Spacers. Both Bearing Spacers must be positioned BETWEEN the Sheave Bearings when the Matched Ground Bearings are replaced. When replacing the single DRAC Bearing, the pair of Bearing Spacers are to be positioned on top of the Bearing when re-installing the Bearing Nut (4). Refer to Step 9. All Bearings are prelubricated and sealed. DO NOT remove the seals to lubricate the Bearings. 2. Fully supporting the Sheave, press the new Sheave Bearings (or single bearing) into place, noting the position of the lip inside the Sheave. See Figures 2A, 2B, 2C. NOTE Some DRIVEMASTER models utilize a single (one piece) Sheave Bearing. Repair with model specic Kit. NOTE When installing new bearings, you must press on the outer diameter ring of the bearing set to avoid damaging the bearing during installation.

Spring Housing / Piston Assembly, Reassembly


CAUTION Use extreme care when reassembling the Air Chamber components to avoid damage to the O-Ring and Air Chamber Seal. 10. Using a clean/dry cloth, clean both the Floating Seal Tip (see Air Cartridge illustration, Step 4) of the Air Cartridge Assembly as well as the Face Seal of the Air Chamber Cap. Use care not to scratch seal surfaces. NOTE The new Face Seal is assembled with an O-ring. If the old Face Seal does not have an O-ring, remove it from the new Face Seal and apply thread sealant (Loctite 511 or similar) to the Face Seal threads. 11. Assemble the Air Chamber Cap and Face Seal. Lubricate the O-ring Seal with the fresh lubricant supplied in the kit and install it on the Air Chamber Cap. 12. Carefully set the Air Chamber Cap into the Sheave and install the Retaining Ring. 13. Lubricate the Air Chamber Seal and contact surfaces with the fresh lubricant supplied in the kit. NOTE The entire tube of O-Ring lubricant should be used when lubricating the new seals and contact surfaces of the Sheave and Spring Housing/Piston Assembly. CAUTION Do not apply grease beyond Seal contact surface as it will cause improper Fan Drive function. 14. Install the Air Chamber Seal into the Sheave as shown. Be sure the Seal is evenly seated against the side and bottom of the groove surfaces. 15. Carefully set the new Spring Housing/Piston Assembly from the Repair Kit into position. Gently rotate to align the mounting holes in the assembly with the tapped holes in the Sheave. 16. Set the new Friction Liner (from kit) into place. Handle the Friction Liner by the edges to avoid contamination.

Remove the Cage Nut from the Spring Housing/ Piston Assembly. 20. Install the new Fan Mounting Friction Disc (from kit) if applicable. (left hand thread) CAUTION Air must be applied to the air chamber to ensure proper torque is applied to the Jack Bolt. 21. Tighten the Jack Bolt (left hand thread) to 100 Ft. Lbs. [136 Nm] torque. 22. Apply Loctite 262 Threadlocker (or equivalent) to the threads of the Jam Nut, reinstall over the jack bolt (left hand thread) and also tighten to 100 Ft. lbs [136 Nm] torque. 23. Actuate the DriveMaster and check for proper engagement and disengagement of the Fan Mounting Friction Disc. Check for air leaks at the bleed hole and around the Spring Housing / Piston Assembly. CAUTION If a problem exists, it must be corrected prior to mounting the Fan Drive onto the vehicle. If the problem is not corrected, the Fan Drive will fail prematurely.

WARNING On the workbench, apply 90 psi [6.21 bar] clean air pressure and check the Fan Drive for air leaks. 1. Be sure the vehicle ignition is off, the vehicles parking brake is applied, and the vehicles wheels are blocked. NOTE Protect the radiator from possible damage from the fan during fan and fan drive installation. 2. Clean the Fan Drive mounting surface on the engine. NOTE Most engines have multiple mounting locations. Be sure to use the correct holes for the application. 3. Bolt the Fan Drive to the engine. Use at washers on each manufacturers approved bolt or studs - do not use lock washers. Tighten the mounting bolts to the vehicle manufacturers specications. CAUTION Correct belt adjustment and alignment is necessary for all belt driven components to assure longevity of component life. Over tightening of belts will shorten bearing life. Loose belts will cause excessive belt wear and shorten bearing life. Consult the equipment manufacturer and/or engine manufacturer for specications of proper belt adjustment. 4. Replace and tighten the belts to manufacturers specication. WARNING The maximum recommended fan diameter is 32. If a larger fan diameter is required, contact Norman G. Clark Engineering. 5. Reinstall air inlet hose and ttings. 6. Check the fan for cracks or missing weights; then if re-usable, remount the fan on the Fan Drive. Tighten the bolts and/or nuts to the vehicle manufacturers specications. If cracking or incidental damage has occurred to any of the blades, replace the fan. 7. Start the engine and let the air pressure build to at least 90 psi [6.21 bar]. Turn off the engine. 8. Manually engage and disengage the Fan Drive by opening and closing the electrical circuit to the solenoid valve. For a normally-open electrical system, use a jumper across a sensor. For a normally-closed electrical system, open the circuit by disconnecting a sensor wire. With the Fan Drive disengaged, re-check the entire system for air leaks, or activate the manual override switch (if equipped). NOTE For DriveMaster applications, air pressure needs to be applied to disengage the drive.
