How to remove vornado fan cover

on

To remove the cover of a Vornado fan, you typically need to follow these steps. Please note that the specific instructions may vary slightly depending on the model of your Vornado fan, so consult your fan's user manual for model-specific guidance if available.

Materials you may need:

  1. Screwdriver (Phillips or flathead, depending on the screws)

  2. User manual (for reference)

Steps to remove the Vornado fan cover:

  1. Unplug the fan: Before attempting to remove the cover, make sure the fan is unplugged from the electrical outlet for safety.

  2. Identify the screws: Examine the fan's cover to locate the screws or fasteners that are holding it in place. These screws are usually found along the perimeter of the front grille or on the rear panel of the fan.

  3. Remove the screws: Use a screwdriver that matches the type of screws used (Phillips or flathead) to remove the screws one by one. Turn each screw counterclockwise (lefty-loosey) to loosen and remove it. Keep the screws in a safe place for reassembly.

  4. Gently pry apart the grille: After removing all the screws, carefully pry apart the front grille or cover from the main body of the fan. Some grilles may have clips or latches that hold them in place, so be gentle but firm in your approach.

  5. Inspect and clean: Once the grille is removed, you can inspect and clean the blades, motor, and other components as needed. Regular cleaning helps maintain the fan's performance.

  6. Reassemble: To put the cover back on, align it properly with the fan's body and secure it by reinserting and tightening the screws. Make sure all screws are snug but not overtightened to avoid damaging the grille.

  7. Plug in the fan: After reassembly, plug the fan back into the electrical outlet and test it to ensure it's functioning correctly.

It's important to follow these steps carefully to avoid damaging the fan or its components during the cover removal process. If you encounter any difficulties or are unsure about any aspect of removing the cover, consult the user manual that came with your Vornado fan or contact Vornado customer support for guidance.
