Gene is correct. Don't try to turn the nut on the back side of the bracket. It's in a slot to keep it from turning. Use a wrench on the hex(on the fan shaft) on the front side of the support bracket just behind the fan pulley to loosen the fan shaft and allow it to slide in the slot. I believe it takes a 13/16 open end wrench, but I could be wrong on that. You may need to find a thinner than normal wrench, as it's a tight fit. The fan belt does not need to be real tight. I think 3/4 to 1 inch depression of the belt when pressing on it between the pulleys with your finger is about right. Tightening more is not necessary and just puts additional load on the fan shaft bearings which could cause unnecessary wear.
