Faults and remedies

Fault

Possible cause

Remedy

Rough running

When coupled, machine runs 

unevenly or with strong vibration, 

with no fault when uncoupled

Fault in power transmission 

components or in driven equipment

Check power transmission, drive 

components and alignment

Settling of foundation

Restore correct foundation level, 

realign machine set

Transmission or driven equipment 

badly balanced

Rebalance

Machine runs roughly when 

uncoupled

Bearing damage

Holding-down bolts loose

Refer to bearing faults below

Tighten and lock

Post-mounted coupling adversely 

affecting rotor balance

Rebalance rotor with coupling

Damage to rolling bearings

Overheating immediately after 

starting or regreasing 

Too much grease filled

Fill and press in only the prescribed 

amount of grease (See rating plate). 

Overheating automatically disappears 

after some time

Overheating after long period of 

operation

Bearing cover seals rubbing

Remachine bearing cover, replace 

damaged seals

Scraping, rubbing or knocking 

noises in bearing

Change bearing (cause to be 

determined by specialists)

Whistling sounds in grease 

lubricated bearings

Bearing is dry

Inject grease

Damage on bearing cage

Replace bearing

Formation of indentations when 

machine stationary

Vibrations being transferred to 

bearings from external source

Isolate motor from external vibration or 

keep rotor turning continuously

Formation of indentations when 

machine in operation

Electric current flowing through the 

bearing
