Learned something new today

Had to break down and fix the reg. buck so the fan would work as our PE summit won't be installed until oct 17th. Took the fan housing and blades off the fan to look for the spot where I could oil the bearings. Found a birds mouth on the back of the fan motor , added oil and viola no more squeaky fan. Why I didn't see that in the first place couldn't say. But there it is

By the way I also lit the first fire of our season and we are feeling the heat. Love it

When the blower stopped working on my old buck was when I discovered it was a slammer install. I found chunks of creosote in the motor housing.
