Note that mounting hardware is not included, so ensure you have the correct M6 x 1.0 bolts for secure attachment. Verify the clutch rotation direction matches the original part (standard rotation) before installation. It is recommended to inspect the fan blades and surrounding components during installation to ensure optimal cooling system performance.
