Electric Vibrator Repair
If the electric vibrator needs repair, contact Italvibras USA at 815-872-1350 for instructions. Most
electric motor repair shops are not trained to repair our industrial electric vibrators. We
recommend that they be returned to the service center located in Princeton, IL. Attempting to
repair the electric vibrator or replace the bearings will void the warranty.
Electric Vibrator Maintenance
Every quarter, we recommend a thorough inspection of the electric vibrator. After lockout/tag
out, do the following:
1.) Inspect the cord for any visible damage or wear. Replace the cord if there are any
signs of damage or wear. This holds true for both the power supply cord and the
thermistor circuit cord.
2.) Remove the wiring box cover and inspect for any foreign matter or liquid.
Vacuum any foreign matter. If wet, remove electric vibrator from service and
have the ground insulation tested by a trained, qualified and licensed technician.
3.) Before replacing the wiring box cover, make sure the electrical connections are
tight (do not over-tighten) and inspect the cover O-ring and rubber compression
block. If the O-ring or rubber compression block is damaged or if they have lost
their compression set, replace them.
4.) Remove each weight cover and inspect for foreign matter. Vacuum if necessary.
Replace O-rings if they are damaged or if they have lost their compression set.
5.) Check the mounting bolt torque.
6.) Replace any broken parts.
