CASCO 8600C-S Manual

Thank you for purchasing the CASCO shrouded electric pulling fan kit. Many hours were spent to ensure that this
kit is easy to install and that it will perform well in the Classic Thunderbird. Use of this kit will allow removal of
original fan and fan shroud. This kit is designed specifically to fit original style radiators including the CASCO all
aluminum radiator. If you have any questions or comments on either this kit's function or installation please call us.

Tools:

1/2" inch end wrench
3/8" drive socket set

Install Fan Assembly:

If the seals installed on the back of the shroud do not touch the radiator core, add a second layer of foam seal by
installing the loose seal strips provided onto the core of the radiator adjacent to the seals on the shroud. Using the
hardware from the original fan shroud, bolt the shroud and fan assembly to the engine side of the radiator. At the
small pilot hole on the sides of the shroud near the bottom drill through shroud and radiator bracket with a 13/64"
drill bit. Install the 10-32 nylok nut and 10-32X38 PH machine screw provided in the hardware bag.

Install Wiring Loom:

1. Feed wiring through wiring loom hole from inside cockpit. Feed through until solenoid wire is completely inside
engine compartment.
2. Attach solenoid wire to solenoid on battery cable side
3. Route thermostat (red) wires and fan power feed along the top of the inner apron, and then along under nose panel
then back out to the fan power lead and thermostat.
4. Hook the thermostat wires to the bottom of the thermostat.
Install fan power wire from loom to the fan assembly.

Install Thermostat Sender:

Carefully slide the sender probe out from behind the thermostat
and push the thermostat probe into the provided hole and
between a pair of radiator tubes. If it is difficult to push the sender
into place, make a pilot hole first with a small Phillips screw driver.
Make sure that you are between the tubes and not puncturing one
of the vertical tubes. Make sure that the screw driver is smaller
than the sender probe! NOTE: The tubing used for the
thermostat is a mechanical tube. Handle this tube with care
making sure not to kink or pinch the tubing.
