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 open-
ings 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 qualified
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 mainte-
nance program.
Type of Grease
A high grade ball or roller bearing grease should be used. Recommended greases stan-
dard service conditions are:
Shell Dolium R (Factory installed) or Chevron SRI
