Motor Bearing Lubrication
Motor bearings are factory-lubricated for normal life. In the case of a double-shielded
bearing, the grease provided is that which is in the bearing. To regrease motors without
grease fittings:
1.
Remove the bearing brackets.
2. If the original bearing is to be relubricated, remove the shield opposite the rotor.
a. Do not replace.
b. Flush old grease from bearing with suitable solvent.
3. Lubricate the bearing and add grease to the bearing chamber. The chamber should
be three-quarters full of grease. (An alternate method is to replace the old bearing
with a new double-shield pre lubricated bearing.)
Note: Lubricate the bearing according to the motor manufacturer’s recommendations
and use the manufacturer-recommended grease.
4. Reassemble the motor.
Fan Motor Inspection
Inspect fan motors periodically for excessive vibration or
temperature.
