Our ceiling fan in the den, after approx. 10 years of good service, has
suddenly began emitting annoying squeaks and rattles. I looked inside the
"cowling" and found nothing loose, but the motor was hot as blazes and I
nearly burned myself on it. The blades are all securely tightened on. The
motor appears to be entirely enclosed. Is there a way to oil it, or should I
start shopping around for a new one?

This is Turtle.

Most fan can be oiled plain motor oil and no penitrating oil , if you can
figure it out but Do start pricing new ones in the near future.
