    I figured it out. Ill add the pictures somewhere else, so look here for them. But they slid hoizontally into position when you separate the bottom layer, slip it onto the cap where the picture shows. Ill explain better at the picture.

    • There is a rattling noise after a few years, 5 years in my case. The upshot is to remove the bottom cap and add 2 washers around the center stem. This will push teh whole assembly tighter together.

    • Concurrently, I also identified where those two plastic pieces go.

    • There are 6 exterior screw you need to remove AND they are bigger than conventional sizes so they are easy to strip! Use the cheap set (in pic on next page) I bought for $2 to get the right fit.

    • WHen you get the cap off see the very center screw? Take it out and put on 2 washers (1/2" outside diameter, 1/4" inside diameter). Wy 2 washers and not 1? ! washer is not enough to fill the gap causing the loose fit and therefore the rattling noise.

    • So not much more to say. 2 washers into the hole.

    • These pieces that some of us had leftover below on the cover cap. So go back to step 1, remove remove the 4 screws in the intermediate stage (not the bottom 6 screws). SLIGHTLY lift up the cap and slide the plastic part horizontally along the cap into place. The push the cap back down and tighten the 4 screws back into place.

    • Unscrew 8 screws, remove the bottom cap. find the previous repair of 2 metal washer and take them out. Add a black rubber gasket at the bottom of that stack and put them back on top. It works but not fully. There is one more critical noise fix left ; the thin metal arm behind the plastic barrier is making the noise and I cannot reach it easily.

    • After opening the bottom cap, where I previously trying in 2 metal washers, I put a tiny black grubber gasket under the washers to deaden the noise. MOST IMPORTANTLY, I find a rattle coming from the metal arm UNDER THE plastic barrier cover. I cannot get in there easily!!

    • I bend a tweezers so I can curve the gasket into place from the other side of the plastic barrier, clamp a black gasket into the tweezers with a rubber band, cut the gasket so it can be placed around the rattling screw from the side. No I use lighting and glasses to see the tiny workspace.

    • I put gorrilla glue on the gasket , hoping it will stay in place and then I push it into the gap between the metal arm and its holding screw. I use a curved pointed plastic all to push teh gasket off the clamped tweezers and onto the arm-mount-screw to leave it in the right place.

    • The noise is gone. I have put 2 gaskets into the fan. Super silent. This fix took years to formulate. I tried about 4x over 3 years. Thanks for reading, I hope you appreciate that I stuck with it.

    • 2022 Update: I had to take these out because the fan stopped rotating correctly. The noise, however, is gone and the fan operates silently again.

    • When I raise the temperature, the fan goes off instantly. If I put the temperature back down to 32, the fan works perfectly. If anyone has an answer where you can buy the right thermostat, let me know. email jim.porson@gmail.com

    • If I cannot just buy the whole thermostat, I may look inside to find the solenoid (or heat fuse?), which controls the heat.

Sonuç

If your fan came off the rails, reassemble your device, follow stages 1-3. Then tighten center to eliminate whiny/rattle noise in steps 4-5. Lastly the tiny leftover pieces find a home in step 6!
