Introduction: 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.

Step 1: 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.

Step 2: Cleaning.

Using a brush I cleaned off the lint and washed the fan blade.

Step 3: Lubing.

Using powerlube I sprayed lubrication onto the bearings and rotor.

Step 4: Reassembly.

Half a minute to reassemble. Now to power up.

Step 5: Completion.

Now the fan spins quite powerfully and provides refreshing breeze!
