The electric fan should be placed on a stable surface, free of obstructions within its oscillation range, and the power cord should be protected from tripping hazards.
When using the timer switch, the timer knob should be turned clockwise, never counterclockwise, to avoid damaging the timer.
If the electric fan makes strange noises, emits a burning smell, or smokes while running, immediately turn off the power and have it repaired.
The electric fan should be lubricated regularly. Before each use or when storing, add a few drops of sewing machine oil to the front and rear bearings. The gears in the oscillation mechanism should be cleaned every three years, and the grease in the gearbox should be replaced.
When cleaning and maintaining the fan, always disconnect the power first. Regularly wipe the body with a soft cloth and clean the dust accumulated on the mesh and blades. Some models feature a detachable design for easy cleaning of the mesh and blades.
Some modern floor fans feature a foldable or modular design for easy disassembly and storage, saving storage space.
The electric fan should be protected from moisture, sunlight, and dust. During the off-season, it should be properly packaged and stored in a well-ventilated and dry place.
