Really love these old fans They are from an era when things were made to last. I've been collecting fans for years and many have the oscillating and speed adjustment features.I use my fans in every room.I really enjoy watching them operate.They move tons of air are quiet, and trouble free.Keep them oiled clean them periodically and they will run forever.Great information video, any other tips are appreciated also.

I recently rewired and installed new felt on the base on this Emerson and it still runs beautifully. Emerson definitely made some good looking and good running fans.

An Emerson 29646 oscillating fan I inherited from my father has “NP 196” on the right lower corner of the identification plate. The 29646 was produced between 1922-1936. Since the +20 rule applies to Emerson fans made after 1929, I will assume this fan was made 1922-1928.

If a person doesn't know anything about safety on a fan, they sure do not need to be tearing it apart & messing with the wiring in the first place! 125 volts 250 Volts is nothing for a unexperienced/ ordinary person to mess with!

I’ve been collecting fans since I was a kid you won’t believe how many times I go to buy one and the seller wants to plug it in so I can see if it works before I buy it I tell them no every time not worth the drive if it burns up right before I buy it

I have a Hunter Century C-16 built in Fulton New York that's been passed down from father to son for three generations now and I'm trying to restore it. It works but needs some repairs. This will probably sound like a dumb question but is there a trick to get the cage off without the fan blades? I've tried the 4 screws that connect the cage to the brackets but they aren't budging,the nuts on the opposing sides from the screws won't either. So is it something simple that I'm overlooking or just old stubborn hardware? I'd really appreciate any info you may have.

I’m sure there’s a video about fans naming the parts. Maybe one that would troubleshoot something my fan got hot and now the blade won’t spin so I’m assuming it’s a motor but all I know is the gears wires if anybody out there could tell me about a video I’d appreciate it
