*Small but **Fastly.Cool** .We use it in a very large roompositioned about 10 feet awayin 85F outside heatit keeps us cool. No need to turn on the AC.*
Thank you for this. The stand came off my Patton fan and I was able to disassemble thanks to your video. I used a small crowbar to pop off the front and also found it essential to snap the last hook back in place. Put back together and very proud of myself for fixing it -with your help.
Excellent video. I finally cleaned the fan for the first time since I first bought it 25 years ago. You should have seen the dust that came off it. Oiled the ports like you suggested and it runs quietly now. Thank you!
Good video bro on how to take it apart a Patton high velocity fan for cleaning and servicing it's very easy to remove the front grille I like how these Patton high velocity fans have oil ports on the front and rear I really enjoy this video bro
@@JordanU I Agree bro but nothing is made right any longer lol and i got the new iPhone 13 pro max for my Birthday and i love it bro the cameras are awesome my videos are going to be so much better so glad God bless me with the latest iPhone it also has a 4,352mah battery lost of hours of recording lol
I think some pulled the fan by the cord, because the wire inside is broken right where it connects to the outside. I can’t figure out how to remove the black connector where the wire enters the cage and how to remove the two wires from the switch. Probably a 20 minute job if I could see someone do it, but I don’t want to force it and break it.
You did do a video on this, but it had all sorts of freakshows so you subtracted all the useful footage and entitled the rest "Patton Comedy Movie." That was a great production.
Thanks for the letting of me know, that makes perfect sense now. I did remember doing a video of this fan but couldn't quite figure out what became of it.
I found one of the older late 90's models in the trash not to long ago and the original owners zip tied the front guard to the back guard. I love my Patton fan
Is it possible to get a blade replacement for a Patton U2-1487? I don't see a vintage blade part for replacement, anywhere! My blades gave the bolts. TY.
Thanks. I have a big Patton industrial fan in my garage that kept cutting out, I assume due to thermal protection. I removed the grill and fan blade, blew it out as best I could with a blower and oiled it two places. I did not disassemble the motor itself. I was a little concerned about the capacitor possibly discharging on me and maybe someone could address that issue. That's why I was reluctant to disassemble the motor itself
Thank you Jordan for your video, I found a Patton on side of the road model PHV-19 I looked it up and found nothing online before I test it I’d like to lube the motor but can’t seem to find and oil ports also would it be safe to use some contact cleaner spray on the motor?
For my Patton Fan model TG-1887, I'm looking for a replacement for my motor run capcitor Vim QPC-MEB8. Would you happen to know where I could find this part or something equivalent?
I have a patton fan that is probably 18". It came with electronic speed control box and remote that I lost long ago. Today speed control switch died. I would like to rewire with manual switch. There are 2 wires from outlet going into switch and 2 wires going to motor. There is 2 wires from motor going to a thermal switch or cap mounted next to motor. I have no idea if it can be rewired. Anyone know?
I have a very poorly maintained Patton high velocity fan that was passed down to me. Its very dusty and the windings in the back vents are covered. What would be the best way to clean it, and what kind of oil should I use. Also, mine appears to have 2-piece fan blades, are these at risk of breaking?
Compressed air is best for cleaning the motor. 3-in-1 oil in the blue can, or Zoom Spout oil is good for the bearings. There is a risk of the blades breaking, but they were never recalled so it must not have been very widespread. If your machine is in decent balance, it's a lot less likely to break. This particular one is in very poor balance.
I'm hoping you can help me. I have a Patton fan like the one in this video. It's a rescue so I don't know its history. I plugged it in & it made a lot of noise. I took it apart & cleaned it up & it ran good on low for about 1/2 hour then it started making a lot of noise again. I then stuffed some cotton welting in where the bearings are & applied oil. When I put the fan back together I could spin the blade by hand easily but when I turn it on it makes a little clunking noise & seizes up. The spindle will not spin at all it's solidly locked up. I turn it off & once again the blade spins freely. I'm not sure what went wrong but I don't want to give up on this wonderful fan. Any idea what the problem is?
@@JordanU Bear with me I'm not sure what all the parts are called. A buddy of mine looked at it & said he thought there was too much play with the spindle. It can be pushed & pulled a bit. I know the bearings have that tilting movement but on another video of yours you said to give it a little smack with a screwdriver handle which works great. What about the washers? I read somewhere that the amount of washers on each side (on the spindle) is important but I don't know what the proper amount of them is. Both sides have a copper washer at the end but one has a felt washer along with some other thin sized & the other has no felt washer.
@@JordanU One thing I did was originally removed the material in each end because it was falling apart & then filled that section up with syntheticv grease. A couple days later I removed the grease, stuffed those areas with cotton welting & saturated it with oil. Removing half of that made no difference. The blade spins great if done by hand with the motor off but as soon as it's turned on it makes a clunk then lockes up solid.
@@Zendall007 You're having an issue with the bearings not being firmly secured in place, it's good enough to turn by hand but the extensive force of the rotor's magnetism is enough to pull it out of line. I've never been able to successfully replace that material that holds the bearings in place, you may need to find new motor shells. I'd also stay away from the grease; it will clog the pours of the bearing and prevent the oil from seeping through.
Hey Jordan, do you have any advice on cleaning off the rust on very rusty fan grills? I have a pre china Lakewood hv-18 stand fan and it’s covered in rust on the grills. Thanks
@@JordanU I ended up using a wire brush attachment and a cordless drill to get as much of the rust off, and painted it a metallic silver. Made it look like new again!
I have a Patton fan that works great however, it won't hold its position. It turns down and points to the ground/ Any help on how I can fix that? Thanks in advance!!
@@hdlayla As long as they're the right size, I would think they don't need to be original, all they're doing is bringing the stand close to the guard so there's friction.
I been doing it wrong I been using a screw driver to pop those out mine has no oil ports but has the riveted blades but mine is a smaller one u2-1287 is mine
