Hi All!

I have a Westinghouse 6 blade (please see attached picture). I am new at trying to tinker oil, etc. I replaced the old wick, cleaned the oil cup, and replenished with fresh oil. I found that I could unscrew the rotating pull in the back as well as another gear peace which I think helps drive the rotation mechanism. Where and how much oil should I apply? The second question relates to the propellor shaft. It has a bit of play and when I start the fan it rattles a bit but then sounds smooth. Is this normal?

Thanks for your input,

Todd
