    Three more Wind Machine fans saved from going in the dumpster thanks to this video. I didn't even think they came apart but watching this video made me realize it was (pretty) easy! The dirt was horrifying!! The house is so much cleaner now and I didn't have to buy new fans. Thank you for teaching all of us!!

    Mad props dude, I took apart a fan like this one to clean it for my parents and I couldn’t figure how to get the motor back in- I had the right idea of getting the feet through but just didn’t see where they were supposed to be. Aside from that minor annoyance I knew how to put the rest of the fan back together but I was sitting there on the floor for a good 20 minutes trying to solve some kind of new age puzzle. So grateful for your video even if I didn’t need the whole thing, and I like how simply you explained it. Made me feel like I’m a new employee in a fan factory and you’re the guy that trains now hires. I even thought “this should be simple” and I was about to go take an angry nap to think it through before I found this and it calmed me down. Thanks again man 👍

    This is a good instruction video for cleaning this particular fan but if I may add a little side note if you do not have canned air or any kind of like air compressor to blow out the dust try like a toothbrush to scrub around the crevices of the fan get the dirt out then just use a vacuum hose preferably a vacuum with good strong suction power and it will suck that dirt right out of the way just my little added advice thanks for the video man 👍

    Since purchasing it, ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxQuBMI30VhO6fDed6NOsYftsoNa8x0UZ5 this fan is a trustworthy companion during the hot nights in Texas for me. The sleep mode is really quiet and gives you smooth wind to cool down. At full speed the fan is quite noisy but also very strong.Only weird thing is that if there is a draught from another fan, the sleep mode would speed up occasionally (getting a bit louder, probably to level 2 out of 4). This never happened so far when I used only this fan though.

  • @BP-wv2xq
    @BP-wv2xq 2 роки тому +2

    I cannot thank you enough! I just couldn’t get the the fan to come apart. No matter how hard I tried and it was because of the darn handle screw!! 4 years of headaches. I stumbled upon your video as I complained to my friend of how dirty my fan was and how I hate the cleaning process. Which was just vacuuming it and literally scrubbing every ridge with a knife and a rag. 2 seconds before putting my working fan into the garbage I decided to look up if anyone had posted some help. You are a life savor. By reading your comments I am glad I wasn’t alone.

    Just got done cleaning all three fans. YES, I DID IT ALL BY MYSELF! My Dad was very handy and could fix anything. My brother got his ability to fix things, not me. I have been getting better at this, due to UA-cam videos like your's.
    I have owned these fans for years. I have always blown them off with a leaf blower and then wiped them off with soap and water. Now they are as clean as brand new.
    Thank you again!

    Thanks it’s very useful. I clean them out at the end of summer before putting them away. I always hated cleaning them because I didn’t know if the motor and fans were removable without damage. Having to clean the fan with the motor on is a hassle. But this will be helpful. Like a lot!

    Exactly what I needed, today I realized that both my window screen and fan where in a state that if left unchecked may have lead to respiratory problems... maybe it's because I never heard of someone cleaning a fan or window screen, so it didn't even register as something that needed to get done, will be nice to have some fresh air in my room.

    This is the best Lasko fan video I have found on UA-cam. Nicely edited, good audio and instructions. While my Wind Machine is only one year old, I decided I would try to follow your instructions to a T.
    For the most part, everything went smoothly. The only area where I struggled was that clip piece below the knob.
    For me, it was a solid piece of plastic that no matter how hard I tried to squeeze inward, that puppy would not budge. I was feeling a bit rejected when I tried a simple pair of tweezers and I was able to dislodge it from the outer housing. I really wasn't sure if I was about to break that piece, but it did come out. Anyway, thanks for making a great video.

    My fan doesn’t have screws. But I watched till the end to see if we got another pec shot. I’ll have to figure out how to unsnap my lasko. Thanks for the video!
    Edit: the thing has two screws that I finally found. Now the task of cleaning.

    I had soooo much dust and hair INSIDE the actual motor. I had to take the motor apart to get it out. However I couldn’t figure out how to get the blades off lol. So I unscrewed every screw through that little hole instead of just popping it off like you showed. Plus mine wouldn’t pop off easily because it had hair twisted and built up at the base of it🤦🏻‍♀️ it was a struggle but now it’s cleaned!

    Great tutorial on cleaning this fan. Short but thorough. Mine isn't too dirty yet, but I was trying to clean a Lasko tower fan. The tower fan video by Lasko is useless. The tower fan is not supposed to be taken apart and they made it very difficult. I like the Wind Machine better anyway.
    By the way, a comment on the tower fan said to use a leaf blower to clean it. I'm gonna try that and while I'm at it, I'll probably try the leaf blower on the WInd Machine also. I know after a few cleanings like that, I should probably follow your video to clean around the motor and to oil it. Still this was a great video, and I will follow it once the fan is really dirty or after a longer period.

    Fantastic video! Thank you so much! Simple step by step instructions with good advice. I started a video before this one on how to clean this fan and within just a few seconds the housing was already off without showing how he took it apart which was exactly what I needed to know! Didn't see another second of that video.
