Brady Folsted Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Looking for tips and tricks on removing the blades off this very large Emerson pedestal fan. I already removed two set screws and soaked it in wd-40 but she's stuck on there pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Adams Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Make sure there is not another set screw. A bunch (most) of those K60s put two set screws in one hole. You take the two 90 degees apart out & think you have it, surprise, one more in the same hole. After that I wedge two screwdrivers between the blade hub & motor, then slowly work back & forth. Never failed me yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brady Folsted Posted May 1 Author Share Posted May 1 Stan Adams, I did get the blade off. Only two set screws thankfully. I appreciate your feedback and the follow up email. Thank you very much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
