Try getting you hoover attachement upto the inlet area for the fan, and having a clean around. Chances are you've dust in your bearings (ooh, sounds painful!)

Otherwise, you can get cans of compressed air to jet in, although I just give mine a regular blow. Matron.
Just how many double entendres can I squeeze in here ! Anyway, hope there's something useful for you in this postDoing my best as a contrarian investor...property, banking...let's see how it goes
