Default How can I take out axial play in my ceiling fan? It's a Hunter.

Low speed , it is quiet, higher speed , rattles, I balanced the wobble
out of it years ago, have a 18" down shaft on the fan, checked the blades,
pushed up and down on the fan blades, arms, in the center of the motor
and have the play there.


How old is it? Ive got a pair of Hunters in the house that are at
least 20 yrs old, and have run virtually 24/7 for those 20 yrs..and
still dont wobble.

Might be time to replace it if yours is "wobbling"



"In the United States "liberal" means today a set of ideas and political postulates
that in every regard are the opposite of all that liberalism meant to the preceding generations.
The American self-styled liberal aims at government omnipotence, is a resolute foe of free enterprise,
and advocates all-round planning by the authorities, i.e., socialism." -- Ludwig von Mises (1929)
