## 🔌 Function

Supports or surrounds the cooling fan so airflow is directed through the radiator while the rotating blades maintain safe clearance.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Fan contact with the ring or guard
-   Cooling-system vibration or rattling
-   Reduced airflow and engine overheating

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Never run the engine with the guard removed or only partly fixed — this is a safety item over a fan that will take a hand or a loose tool
-   Renew rather than straighten a guard that has been bent, cracked or has lost material; a distorted guard can foul the fan
-   Check clearance to the fan and to belts, hoses and wiring all round after fitting, and turn the engine over by hand to confirm nothing touches
-   Use all the original fixings and the correct fasteners, secured against vibration, and check them at routine services — engine vibration works guard fixings loose
-   Keep the guard clear of debris so it does not restrict airflow through the cooling pack
