It's likely the bushings the fan and motor spin in are running dry. There is no belt in there. You can try to desassemble the fan and lube the bushings, but it doesn't come apart easilly. I had the same trouble, and was able to get the thing lubed to the extent that it no longer made an awful sound.

My memory is a little fuzzy, but I think I just hit it with some 3 in 1 oil. It was disappointing that I couldn't get the unit disassembled for a proper clean and lube, but that didn't seem possible. It's not intended to be taken apart. In any event, mine went from making an unbearable screech to working as new, so I'd encourage you to dive in and do what you can do.
