PARTS OF THE CONDENSING UNIT:
BLADE ASSEMBLY:
 |
This is a very soft aluminum material and will bend
very easily and thus become unusable. Take great care when handling it especially during removal of it or the motor. |
Air loads onto each blade as it turns and thereby creates pressure.
If just one blade is different from the whole, then the load is off-balance and the wobble will appear in varying
degrees depending on the difference of the shape of the one blade. Think of
the tires and wheels on the car. Out of balance wobble and bounce is very similar.
If the blades are out of balance the bearings in the motor will wear
excessively and will shorten the life of that motor considerably.
So when you
move the top cover or touch the blades, be very careful not to bend them.
A replacement blade assembly is cheaper than a motor. Between $30 and $50 is
normal. So replace it if it wobbles already or if you bend it.
Do so by first
sanding the shaft of the motor it is bolted onto. Clean this shaft very well
and then oil the shaft and locking assembly with a light penetrating oil. Use
an adjustable wrench (one without teeth) on the flat side (between the blade
hub and the motor) of the shaft to hold it firmly. Then wiggle off the blade
assembly. Hopefully it will not require more drastic measures. Don't ever
beat on the end of the shaft or deface it on the end with wrenches or you
will really have difficulty sliding the blade assembly off it. Remember too,
with the new one as you replace it, don't bend it by pushing on or pulling on
the blades. Clean and sand the shaft until the new blade slide on easily.
Hair line cracks from metal stress sometimes appear on a blade (usually
starting at a rivet-point). If you see one of these, replace the assembly
immediately. It will eventually break loose and will damage the coils and/or
other parts.
