Why would I need to turn the fan blades?
If the machine is equipped with reversible fan blades, (not all machines are) you can change the direction the fan moves the air. Blowing through the radiator, blows hot air and dust away from you. Pulling through the radiator blows warm air (and dust) back on you in the winter. I made a similar tool by cutting a notch in a socket. Hope this helps. :drinkup
Starting in 1999 Komatsu went with sealed no-maintenance muffler bearings :falldownlaughclearly its a muffler bearing wrench
Okay - and now we have the rest of the story. Thanks! I'll have to look/feel to see which way mine are turning.If the machine is equipped with reversible fan blades, (not all machines are) you can change the direction the fan moves the air.
