My Henry 2KD-Classic has developed a noisy blower. Overly so, that is,
with a cyclical noise, about 4 times/second. I have a spare one in much
newer condition. Any tips on replacing it? I'd rather not take off any
more sheet metal than necessary to make the swap. I'll re-lube the
existing one first, just in case, but this is a mechanical. cyclical
drone and doesn't sound like lubrication will make the difference.
Cleaning may be an issue since the blower has never really been out and
fully cleaned. It seems to me there is access via the input circuit
access panel on the bottom, to reach the squirrel cage, so maybe I can
clean it that way. It almost sounds like an out of balance issue.
Any experiences you can share would be appreciated. (And I thought
removing/repairing the blower in the Alpha 89 was a bear :-)
73, Mark
