General Inspection Inspect the motor at regular intervals, approximately every 500 hours of operation,
or every 3 months, whichever occurs first. Keep the motor clean and the ventilation
openings clear. The following steps should be performed at each inspection:
WARNING: Do not touch electrical connections before you first ensure that power
has been disconnected. Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury. Only quali-
fied personnel should attempt the installation, operation and maintenance of this
equipment.
1. Check that the motor is clean. Check that the interior and exterior of the motor
is free of dirt, oil, grease, water, etc. Oily vapor, paper pulp, textile lint, etc. can
accumulate and block motor ventilation. If the motor is not properly ventilated
overheating can occur and cause early motor failure.
2. Check all electrical connectors to be sure that they are tight.
Lubrication & Bearings Bearing grease will lose its lubricating ability over time, not suddenly. The lubricating
ability of a grease (over time) depends primarily on the type of grease, the size of the
bearing, the speed at which the bearing operates and the severity of the operating
conditions. Good results can be obtained if the following recommendations are used in
your maintenance program.
Type of Grease A high grade ball or roller bearing grease should be used. Recommended greases
standard service conditions are: Shell Dolium R (Factory installed) or Chevron SRI
