Disassembly part

Before dismantling, make sure that the PTC Heating Fan has been disconnected from the power supply. Use a screwdriver to unscrew the screws underneath the PTC Heating Fan. Some PTC Heating Fans are not easy to disassemble after the screws are unscrewed because of the different ways of clasping, so we cannot break them strongly, otherwise, it is easy to break the hoop or hurt ourselves. After the front mesh has been removed, the next target is the fan blade. The front section of the fan blade has a protruding plastic swivel nut which can be turned by hand, but notes that the direction of rotation of this nut is opposite to that of a normal nut, so turn it clockwise to loosen it. Once the nut has been loosened, the fan blade can be easily removed and a large part of the disassembly work is now complete. Behind the fan blade, there is another half of the hoop, which is also locked by the nut, but this nut is easy to unscrew by applying a little force in the direction of the normal nut. The other half of the hoop can then be removed without any problems.

Cleaning section

The cleaning method depends on the degree of dirtiness of the PTC Heating Fan, which is a matter of judgment, but the general rule is that all parts are dry before installation and that no water enters the motor. If the fan blades and mesh hoops are clean and only a little dusty, simply use a basin to clean the fan with water, wipe off all parts including the body with a damp rag, and then dry the parts with a dry rag. When wiping the motor, wring out the damp rag as much as possible. If the parts are dirty, brush them with detergent and dry them with a dry rag. Do not use oil-based degreasers such as petrol, as they can corrode the paint and plastic and damage the appearance and even the life of the PTC Heating Fan. Once cleaned and thoroughly dried, the PTC Heating Fan is ready for use by installing each part in turn, making sure that the clips are correctly aligned when installing the mesh hoop, otherwise the screws will not fit.

Maintenance

The main maintenance of the PTC Heating Fan is to lubricate the motor to prolong its life. Use a screwdriver to unscrew the motor casing to expose the motor part. The next step is to check if the shaft and gears need to be oiled. The nylon gears need regular maintenance, otherwise, they will break down easily. If you need to oil the gears, just put a drop of sewing machine oil on them.
