This is often overlooked. Find a way to raise the magnets, even if just a little bit. I have mine on a hose washer. It happened to be the same size as the fan hub so that made centering easier but I was using a bar magnet so the middle didn't matter. If my magnet touched the metal shaft sticking through the fan it stopped it dead.I believe there is a magnet inside the fan, which makes it spin. Maybe they're counteracting eachother?
