Cadillac Preliminary Service Information 19
No provision is made for lubricating the fan.
The fan bearings are packed with lubricant at the
factory, which is intended to last for the life of the
car. Adjustment of the fan belt is accomplished
in the usual manner, simply by raising or lowering
the fan to the correct position.
The radiator core, while of the same fin construction
as in the "C" series, differs in that the
capacity of the upper tank has been greatly reduced.
This has been made possible by the increased
core area at the bottom due to elimination
of provision for cranking the engine by hand.
Fig. 22. The fan is of the five blade type with the
blades unevenly spaced around the hub
The radiator shutters and automatic control
have been redesigned for the new type radiators.
They are, however, similar in construction and
operate the same as those on the "C" series cars.
The same shutter assembly and thermostat control
is used on all models. The radiator casing and grill
have been redesigned to conform with the new body
lines.
The radiator tie rods are similar to those used in
the "C" series except that the new rods arc screwed
into anchor plates riveted to the dash instead of
being held in place by nuts on each side of the dash
as formerly. In order to get the proper alignment
