These are a prick of a design because obviously you dont want to undo your A/C gas and the pressure hose is right in the way.
 
So you loosen all the relevant mounting nuts and bolts on the fan housing AND undo the 3 nuts holding the fan to the housing as well. This allows the fan to drop into the housing making the whole unit much thinner and with a small bending on the A/C hose you can get it all out no problem. Just becareful of the fans tip rubbing to hard on the radiator, they have a little nipple on the end.
