1998 E300TD fan blade replacement and belt routing

I have a 1998 E300TD and am replacing the fan blade, belt and idler pulley. Does anyone know where I can get a picture of the belt route? I Googled and could not find any picture. I have the torque of the idler pulley at 18.5 lbs. I do not know the torque of the three Hex 5 screws that fasten the fan blade to the fan clutch? Any help is greatly appreciated...

I believe it has the same routing as a 603.

I doubt there's a published torque spec for attaching the fan to the clutch. They're small screws. Some blue loctite and a twitch more than screwdriver tight should do it.

If the tensioner arm clicks as you pivot it, add one to your shopping list.

That belt route looks correct to my eye.

My 99 had a sticker showing the routing mounted on the lid computer box.

That belt routing is correct, start from the pulley marked no.1 for easy work.

The little screws dont take gorilla torque, just a little over hand tight is OK, the aluminium bites into the threads over time due to heat cycles locking those screws in place like on a motorcycle engine casing.

Belt routing is also shown in the owner's manual.
