When the blower is going at full throttle, the metal box rattles and it's starting to bother me, anyone has a fix?

I have to do the fan on my Drolet 1400i a couple times per year to keep it quiet. Unplug the fan and remove the whole box (pick up and pull back to unclip it...if it is the same as my 1400i, and I think it is) anyways, take it outside and blow it out with compressed air...hopefully you have, or have access to a compressor...you may be surprised how much gunk is built up in there...I've seen some that were REALLY bad...not idea how they put up with all the noise long enough for things to get to that point!
