In this video I used sewing machine oil

[sabinazelena]

Used engine oil. The whole fix took less than five minutes and now the annoying noise I’ve been listening to for MONTHS is finally gone. Thank you!

[brandonupchurch]

It would probably help if you also removed the oscillating mechanism off the rear and dripped oil into the rear bearing as well, although many times there's grease on the screw that interfaces with the oscilating gears so try to resist the instinct to grab the shaft and turn it from that end only turn the shaft from the front to work the oil in so you don't disturb the grease, I like to use straight SAE30 in a little needle applicator bottle I got cheap from the craft store.

[Plantje]

Great guide! Bought a bottle of lubricating oil, followed the steps and the noise was fixed!

[IThinkICare]

It seems to me that (other than cleaning) you don't need to take it apart further than 0:10 and as someone said, to really oil it, you need to take apart to get to the bushing on the other end.

Bro no need to open plastics cover when you are not oiling most inner part, tilt to apply on the shaft to let it flow in. Use engine oil. WD40 will wash away the grease

[dodgemk]

Use engine oil, works best. I used other lubricant oil, wd40, sewing machine oil, it doesnt solve low speed noise. Engine oil works best and no more low speed noise

[leboanemabunda]

Even if u use rust remover works perfectly fine

[ct]

Also you can literally spray it toward the middle of the fan from outside the grate. That will work too. Literally bought two years doing that.

[tribesvanguard]

Thabk you so much i never thought it would be such a simple fix, and ik people say not to use wd40 but who cares now im not dying in balls sweat

[jamesb.]

I have several of these I have to maintain and sometimes they are quite a bother! I sometimes have to open the motor and oil the inner parts of the shaft to get it free and running again. The rear white vinyl plastic oscillator piece can be removed to get at the rear inner bushing for oiling. And sometimes I have had to de-gum the bushings even because the fan slows down in a day or two. That way I don't recommend Coconut oil as it might gum up the bushing. Use motor oil. Once I sent it out to a guy due to tightening only after overnight, several times! He slightly enlarged the bushing using a drill bit with his hand only. It worked for months afterward. Even grease didn't keep it free before. These motors need real bearings for trouble-free long operation but they only come with bushings.

Very Well shown. Very Good Vid, very informative.

Is using a cooking oil instead of machine oil work? I currently dont have machine oil rn

[sks]

Guys I have done ✅ and pl use any type of automobile lubricant and not the domestic cooking/coconut oil.
Now it's with 2 drop the fan is running without any noise

[hellbringervic]

I used lithium grease, but i suaully take it apart.. clean both ends and apply grease on both ends. this time it was the rear part that jammed it up.. basically last another couple years with constant use

[tamahagane]

Rear bushing is on the other side. It's equally important (you already removed the cover and removed the dust and grime). Swing mechanism also loves some light oil 👍😉

[corneliusdrogo]

Whenever I clean my fans, I always take off the back, brush or blow away all of the dust and then apply some WD40....

[akshaynischal]

i recently puchased a pedestal fan and when running for long time there is strong paint like smell comming from there is there any fault in product . i used for 2-3 hours after assembling still the smell has not gone

[Raj-nhfc]

I have had this type of fan with the same motor for almost 30 years and now for the past three years it has started giving me problem. Needs constant oiling. Sewing machine oil is useless. I oil both front and rear bushings.

[WeAreNotAmused]

You really don't have to take it apart this much bcuz oil seeps into the tightest of spaces
