Good Morning,

I am assembling the cooling fan onto the generator (36).

What is the proper torque for the fan nut?

Any suggestions on how to keep the generator from turning while the nut is tightened?

Thanks

It looks like 40-47 ft lbs. according to 2 of the Without Guesswork books I double-checked on the site:

One said 40-47
One said 43

I put a socket on the generator pulley nut since it's the same torque. :)
