[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Arial][FONT=Arial]I’m trying to remove the fan blade on the blower. [/FONT]I suspect it is held by a pressure fitting (and possibly a spring clip) and I am guessing that I just have to pry the blade up off the motor shaft, but if it is something else, I am afraid that will break the blade and cause more damage.

[FONT=‘Times New Roman’][FONT=Arial][COLOR=#000000]At first I thought it might be treaded, but I tried locking the motor and turning the blade (both left and right) with no luck. It may be stuck and I have no way to tell. [/COLOR][/FONT][/FONT]
On that type of fan, if you try tp pry it, it will break and need replacement anyway.
Whirlpool suggests a hole saw and a pliers to get the remainder off the shaft.
Why are you needing to take the fan off?
