To convert from the old style motor-to-fan coupling to the new style, view the fan hub picture below. Next to the motor shaft are two raised tenons on either side. Cut these off with a hacksaw so the surface is flat. You can now use the new style coupling. These couplings will work with any of the gearboxes or fans.
