Hi there,

I performed the suggested maintenance on my two Maxspect XF250 Gyres. They are working great in terms of flow, but one is now blowing upwards and the other is blowing downwards. Prior to maintenance, they both blew straight which is what I prefer. I played around with the outer plastic grates a bit but can't seem to get them to blow straight again. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Scott

Here is a helpful video for you. It sounds like you might have either switched the propellers around or possibly the cages. Easily done! I’ve done that myself! LOL

HERE is a helpful link.
