He complains like a Karen wife. Get over yourself buddy they are awesome for the price.

Unreal. Boots come pretty dry to begin with and take at least a coat of conditioner to help break them in. WHY would you leave them out in the sun? Heat dries leather! Even a baseball glove takes time to break in. ALWAYS condition your boots!

This should be really helpful for the whistling sound my ac unit is making! Thank you.

This video actually made me more likely to buy a pair of cueros.

Excellent and thorough presentation

Might be an idea to purchase an extra fan motor, and make sure it is properly lubed before you ever install it the first time. That way you can just swap the motor out, take the other one back into the shop to relube and clean up on the bench?

A fan shaft drive that long could probably benefit from a seperate bearing support stand closer to the fan as well?

Bro said WD -30 hahahaha

Skipped the one part I needed help with..Anyone know how to remove the bearing ? I twist it but the oil cap thing doesn't seem to let me take it out.

Good video. I have replaced this motor in the past but next time i will try this technique first!

Recently replaced my condenser fan motor. I just located the nuts Unser the seal, removed through the opening, then covered with duct tape(sealant might be better) Worked great Saves lots of time No known issues

Use Amsoil synthetic grease, will not dry out and cuts friction better than any other product on the market.

Joe Pera’s uncle?!

Those sleeve bearings are probably cheaper, too bad replacement motors are more expensive!

lol dude this is 100% your fault sorry but it’s facts guess you had to learn hard way, don’t blame the company for something you did.

there are sealed motors available for these units.. id suggest ordering a better motor

That’s cool. 4 hours of work and you were filming. . . Good job. I was looking for a video that shows what to do when the project does not go smooth. You were fortunate, let me put it that way. I’m working on a swamped after “the other guy(s)” and I’m learning the i don’t know as much as I thought I did. It was weird to me that I could have a Brand New motor with a Brand New motor pulley, brand new belt, and a brand new fan pulley and I’m still getting a major wobble…. I’ve worked on at least 10 swamp coolers over the past 10 to 12 years and I’ve never had to change the bearings until now… thanks again though buddy.

I have several pairs of boots and I would never press the toe that way, much less would I leave them in the sun.

I recently bought a new motor and replaced the small pulley and it started up fine but within 5 minutes or so it over heats and shuts down. Can you tell me how to fix this? Thank you.

walla got cool air and needs pads thats it its pretty old but it eems to work ok thats all good for mei liked your video thank you

i am working on a old cooler got it working i guess the people that used to live here said it dont work but i got it working all i have to do know is replace a baring on left side and hiiok up the water pump and walla

And what do you do when it doesn't just slide right off?

@product and equipment reviews. Thank you for such a good video on this topic. I'm not trying to kick a dead horse but my problem is slightly different than what I have found videos on. my ac keeps running for a few seconds after I turn it off. The rubber gasket where the shaft goes into the motor deteriorated last year when we took the cover off to clean and check it. I put a drop of regular 3 in 1 oil on the shaft probably not enough because I read not to over do it and it was more for the rusty shaft than the bearings (didn't even know about that last year) after watching your video I think I understand what is needed. I am wondering have you heard of Fluid Film and if so do you think it would work instead of 3 in 1 oil. I haven't seen any in a blue bottle.

Very professional tutorial! I did what you said and it worked like a charm! I kept thinking I had to use more 3 in 1 than I did, but I restrained myself. Thanks for you help.

You can report that to an encampment clean- up City of Tucson

They pick it from neighborhood bulk clean up and dumpster diving, ugg! Sad and dirty to see

Nice video! Thanks for your time and sharing! 👍😎✌️

Your boots are the wrong size. Your bad… Don’t push down on the toe box. You’re bad…

Great video, very detailed and credit where credit is due. Thank you for posting your experience as well as illustrating the project!

I love how detailed and clear you are with this video. I wasn't able to fix the motor, but I was able to replace it and put everything back together with no issues.

Thanks for the nice clear instructions. I don't think the Donald McAdams video you mention is on TH-cam anymore, though. I opened up the Broad Ocean motor on my Coleman Mach 3 to find that it uses ball bearings, not sleeve bearings. One was a bit dry which was causing an intermittent chattering sound, after previously working without issue for 9 years in a desert environment. When properly lubricated, the shaft should rotate with hardly any resistance. You should be able to turn the fan blade with a finger and see it spin for 10-15 seconds before coming to a stop.

Dude. You got some serious defensiveness issues. The video is a video, but your responses in the comments paint you in a very unflattering light.

These boots are dog shit inside a bag of cat shit based on your report.

It’s a dress cowboy boot, the boot has a composite toe like most cowboy boots at that price range. You don’t want to compress the toe box ever because they will permanently disfigure them. Even with a leather toe box you want to avoid this, but it would have been more resilient for sure. You also made a mistake of admitting to unnaturally attempt to alter or stretch the leather, which voided your warranty as well as the unrecommended damage. While Cuero boots are indeed a “cheap” boot it seems like your bad experience was mainly caused by your lack of knowledge over what you were buying. Regardless it’s good your review pointed out that these can’t be used for hardservice.

Thanks. No bearing will last forever without relubrication. And it's foolish to replace the entire motor for want of oil. I had this same problem with my pool pump. Just dumb that it only lasts a couple of years then need to replace the entire unit. With the cost of Copper so high now it makes sense to service the bearings even if the manufacturer says it's not necessary.

Note to self... Second video down. Does not address my problem. Keep going.

You suppose to show how to take it off

Thank you for this video

Great video, awesome job

I did something similar with my attic fan motor - they would fail about every 2-3 years, and then had to be replaced. I took the old motor, disassembled it the same way as you, and saw that it had the same bearings as you described. I have a home machine shop, and I manufactured a set of replacement inserts to use sealed ball bearings, instead of any sleeve - the shafts were a standard size, so it was easy to find alternate bearings. When the 'replacement' motor started to go bad, I replaced it with my modified one. That was 15 years ago, have not had to replace it again.

4:34 goo gone 8:58 - zoom spout oiler 9:03 - or 3 in 1 motor oil. blue can 5:11 - 5/18 wrench

How much does it cost to fix it?

Your story at the start is the same story I've had with walmart fans (like 15 bucks for a basic lil metal fan or the "honeywell" fan).. get a year or two out of 'em before they didn't want to turn. I'm finally like screw going to buy a new fan I'm taking this one entirely apart.. and I did. No felt to hold extra oil, no oil port.. just pulled 'em all the way apart. Only thing wrong in there was the lubricant had gummed up. Cleaned it off from the shaft and bushing, gave it a good slickin with sewing machine oil, put it all back together and it runs like new. I do have to relube it more often than most motor maintenance says.. I suspect because no felt, and maybe a little to do with it being sewing machine oil instead of 3-in-1 (20w non detergent) But it beats buying a new fan when all the old fan needs is fresh lube

Where did you buy the bearing? I have been looking for one but can’t find it anywhere?

Great video and explanation 👏🏼 thank you!

Since it’s outdoors use wD-45 works better

This is the result of cheap motors without proper lubricated sealed oil bearings from GE motors!

Would like to have a link for the bearings.
