Maintenance Tips

• Keep It Clean:
  Regularly wipe down the motor housing to prevent dust buildup. Ensure cooling vents and fan covers remain clear for proper ventilation.

• Lubrication:
  Follow manufacturer-recommended intervals to lubricate bearings (typically every 12–18 months for moderate use). Use only specified grease types.

• Check Connections:
  Inspect power terminals and ensure all electrical connections are tight and corrosion-free to prevent overheating.

• Monitor Temperature & Vibration:
  Abnormal heat or vibration could indicate alignment issues, unbalanced loads, or bearing wear. Address promptly to avoid damage.

• Inspect Mounting & Alignment:
  Ensure the motor is securely mounted and aligned properly with connected equipment to reduce strain and increase lifespan.

• Test Insulation Resistance:
  Periodically perform insulation resistance tests to detect early signs of winding deterioration or moisture ingress.

• Use Proper Voltage:
  Confirm the motor is operating within the rated 230/460V voltage range. Incorrect voltage can shorten motor life.

• Store Properly When Not in Use:
  If storing, keep the motor in a dry, vibration-free area. Rotate the shaft periodically to maintain bearing health.
