The fan went round and round until....
it stopped. Aw, shucks. If it doesn't work on low speed I'll just it up pop a notch to medium. That worked for three days. Ut-oh. The fan stopped working on medium speed. It's always been like analog clockwork! Going round and round very quickly. Gosh, what's wrong? Since I use the fan in my bedroom at night, I rarely really look at it. I just turned it on. When I moved the fan to the kitchen it was dis -gusting! I started with old toothbrushes, with the fan over the kitchen sink. That should have gotten the dust/dirt off. Bad idea. All it did was spread sticky dust over everything in the kitchen. And the toothbrushes couldn't reach the blades. The grate was too narrow for them I tried the next item on my hit list. The mini wet-dry vac. Blew it full blast! All the dust/dirt did was stay in one place. That was really gross. There's got to be a way to clean the blades. Ah-ha! A small screw. It looks like it keeps the metal circle secured
