Oh man Ty, just got a new standing fan for kids n after couple months (I wasn’t paying attention) I noticed today how bad it’s wobbling. Irritated cause it’s new yet knowing not anything special either, still shouldn’t be wobbling like this. I’ll definitely try this out cause annoying to me as others in family don’t care 😂 appreciate the advice 👍🏻🤘
If the knocking sound is caused by movement in the fan due to not being balanced then it probably could help. Depending on fan design you may need to use a different weight to balance the fan, just depends on what there is to attach the weight too.
Any suggestions on a fix for the bar that goes into the pedestal base..the thing bent somewhere inside and that is preventing me from being able to unscrew it to even look..better homes and gardens retro pedestal fan😢 $60 pretty new but I hate going back to that store called Wal-Mart ugh
My pedestal fan was making a terrible noise. I took the cover off and tightened the blade cover. This stopped the blades from wobbling. However, the fan blades are hitting the rear fan cover which is also wobbly and not flush with the mount. How can I remedy this? Please help!
First thing I would check is to make sure the rear cover is seated properly. Have a look side on and see if the rear cage is even and flush with the rear plastic cover of the fan motor. Its possible it is missing the part that secures the rear fan cage against the motor cover, or the part is loose and needs tightening. Its usually a piece of round threaded plastic that screws on. Hope that helps!
I bought two lasko pedestal fans and the both wobble badly brand new out if the box, which causes a lot if noise also. Horrible products. Wish there was a way to fix them.
XΞИOΛLIΞИ 0 seconds ago Mine was making a high pitched noise too and didnt work properly anymore, i opened it up and cleaned and oiled it, i balanced the blades by putting a small piece of strong tape on the backside of one of the blades
My pencil fan shakes and wobbles a little bit only on start up but after about like a minute or so running it runs with nothing even happened One time I had an old pedestal fan which upon start up it’s sucks so much that fell over in and jam with the blades and motor so I had to takeoff the blade cover and unplug the fan instantly so this is me when I happened looks like this Fan is done for

Just used your method and it did the trick. I also let some oil run down the shaft into the motor and it's as smooth as butter now.
I've had to do the same thing with a little oil, else the fan squeals intermittently.

Good explanation for how to balance a wobbly fan blade.... Thanks pro
That’s a cool dc pedestal fans, not many fans run on dc
Thanks a lot for your video
Excellent idea..that was great ! Can this pin method also fix the Wall fan blade knocking sound while rotating?

Great idea. i just used 30min trying to micro adjust the propel.. Fml
Geez if it came out the box like this,it shows you quality control is a thing of the past

Overtime as the fan runs the centrifugal force is going to push the weight further out

You could’ve snipped a tiny little bit of material off of the end of that cotter pin if you wanted it perfect.
What if the fan is moving?
What if i i dont fix my wobbling fan??
buy a new one... most portable clip fans cost around 3-4$ on lazada :P
If you don't fix it the bearings/bushings will wear out a lot sooner until it doesn't run anymore or wrecks itself.
Next time buy a genuine vintage fan from 1950/60/70s
