Subject: Fan adjustment meadows S4 engine
Can anyone tell me how to adjust the fan? I'm trying to get a fan belt on. It looks like the fan shaft is on a cam that can be rotated to allow the belt to be put on. But how do I do this? The manual (club reprint) isn't very helpful. There are 4 holes in the base of the shaft for "adjusting the fan" and a heafty bolt "fan locking nut". I took this bolt right out but still nothing moves. It is possible that the steel shaft has become stuck in the aluminium hole? I don't want to force it and risk breaking the aluminium.
Any help appreciated.
