Fixing a Seized Safeway Desk Fan | Full Strip Down, Clean & Restore

In this video, I take you through the full process of restoring a seized Safeway desk fan.
Over time, the original grease on the shaft and bushings had hardened, causing the fan to seize.
I strip the fan down completely, clean off the old grease using isopropyl alcohol (IPA), and carefully remove buildup from the shaft and bushings.

Using Q-tips and tissue paper, I clean the bush housings and fan components.
The finger guard and fan blade also get a thorough scrub.
Once clean, I re-lubricate the felt pads and bushings with Singer light machine oil to restore smooth operation.
The fan is then reassembled and tested—running quietly and smoothly once again.

If you have an old fan that's struggling to spin, this repair guide might help bring it back to life!
