I'll have to pull it out and see whats going on.

I climbed up into the attic last night and found out what the problem was. The armature of the motor was rubbing on the stator. I simply loosed up the bolts on the end and re-adjusted it. It didn't even look like it moved, but it was working fine after the adjustment.
Thus marks the first day of using the attic heat fan. I could have been using it a few day and or even a week earlier (~September 1). Its been in the 40s at night and up to the low 70s during the day. So, the house is having a bit of a hard time staying warm. It'll be interesting to see how long it'll be usable.
