Maintenance Tips

• Regular Inspections: Examine the motor every 500 hours or quarterly. Ensure ventilation openings and the exterior of the motor are free of dirt, oil, grease, water, etc., which can accumulate and block motor ventilation.

• Lubrication & Bearings: If the motor is not labeled "Permanently Lubricated," apply appropriate grease to the bearings, ensuring compatibility with existing grease and avoiding over-greasing.

• Electrical Connections: Check all electrical connectors to be sure that they are tight and free from corrosion.

• Insulation Resistance: Use a "Megger" periodically to ensure that the integrity of the winding insulation has been maintained. Record the Megger readings. If winding resistance to ground is less than 1.5 Meg-ohms, consult the local authorized service shop before reenergizing the motor.

• Cleaning: Keep the motor and surrounding area free of dust and debris to prevent clogging the air vents.

• Performance Monitoring: Regularly check motor performance to detect any decrease in efficiency or power.
