Dismantling a Dyson tower fan can seem daunting, but with the right approach, it’s surprisingly straightforward. This guide provides a step-by-step process on how to disassemble your Dyson tower fan for cleaning, repair, or storage.
Understanding Your Dyson Tower Fan Model
Before you begin, identify your specific Dyson tower fan model. Different models may have slight variations in their construction, so consulting your user manual is highly recommended. Knowing your model will help you understand the specific clips, screws, and other components involved.
Gathering the Necessary Tools
You won’t need any specialized tools for this task. Generally, a small Phillips head screwdriver and a flathead screwdriver (or a similar prying tool) are sufficient. Having a small container to keep screws and small parts organized is also helpful.
Step-by-Step Disassembly Guide
-
Unplug the fan: Safety first! Always disconnect the power supply before starting any disassembly.
-
Remove the base: Most Dyson tower fans have a detachable base. Look for release buttons or screws underneath the base and carefully detach it from the main body of the fan.
-
Locate the hidden screws: Often, screws securing the fan’s outer casing are hidden beneath labels or rubber feet. Carefully peel back any stickers or remove the rubber feet to reveal these screws.
-
Unscrew the outer casing: Using your Phillips head screwdriver, remove the screws you’ve located. Keep them safe in your container.
-
Separate the casing halves: Gently pry open the two halves of the outer casing. Be careful not to force it, as there may be clips holding them together. Use a flathead screwdriver or a similar prying tool to carefully release these clips.
-
Access the internal components: With the casing open, you should have access to the internal components, including the motor and the fan blades.
Dyson Tower Fan Base Removal
-
Removing the fan blades (if necessary): If you need to access the fan blades for cleaning or replacement, consult your user manual for specific instructions. Some models have easily removable blades, while others may require further disassembly.
-
Disassembling the motor assembly (if necessary): If you need to access the motor, proceed with caution. Disconnect any wiring connectors carefully. Documenting the wiring connections with photos before disconnecting them can be incredibly helpful for reassembly.

Reassembling Your Dyson Tower Fan
Reassembly is essentially the reverse of the disassembly process. Refer to your photos and notes taken during disassembly to ensure all components are correctly positioned and reconnected.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
- Fan not oscillating: Check if the oscillation button is engaged and that the oscillation mechanism isn’t obstructed.
- Reduced airflow: Clean the fan blades and check for any blockages in the airflow path.
Conclusion
Disassembling a Dyson tower fan can be accomplished with a little patience and attention to detail. By following these steps and referring to your user manual, you can successfully disassemble your fan for cleaning, repair, or storage. Remember to always unplug the fan before starting any work.
