Hello
Removed the Lopi Pioneer Bay Convection Fan for cleaning. Wow is it Dusty & Dirty!
Se this is what I did. Any other suggestions?
1. Remove blower.
Disconnect wire clips.
Open right hand door and loosen back screws. remove front screws and bolt bracket and slide out blower.
Use damp rag and clean dust under fan inside stove.
2. Use brush and vac, brush dust off
3. Use fantastik cleaner and rag, remove greasy dirt on outside of blades
4. Use cue tips to remove greasy dirt on inside of blades
5. Use 3-1 oil on motor shaft and then spin motor with test cord.
6. Use Spray Graphite to stop new dust adheasion
I have found the graphite helps to fill the voids from pitting and smooth the Aluminum so dust does not stick.
7. Re-Install clean, shinny and lubricated!
Compressed air can also be used but dose not remove the grime.
