Servicing an Old Fan.
This 12 year old fan never spins when powered. It is so clogged with lint it can't spin! Here is how I fixed this in 5 minutes.
Taking It Apart.
Taking off the front grill with a flat blade screwdriver and the back cover by removing the lone Phillips head screw, the fan is ready to be serviced.
Cleaning.
Using a brush I cleaned off the lint and washed the fan blade.
Lubing.
Using powerlube I sprayed lubrication onto the bearings and rotor.
Reassembly.
Half a minute to reassemble. Now to power up.
Completion.
Now the fan spins quite powerfully and provides refreshing breeze!
