Symptom
Probable Cause
Recommended Action
Bearing is 
excessively hot
First start after relubrication (grease distribution) Allow machine to cool down and restart.
Over-lubrication
Clean surface of grease and purge.
Over tensioned belts 
Adjust belt tension.
No lubricant 
Apply lubricant. Check bearings for damage.
Misaligned bearing 
Correct alignment. Check shaft level.
Motor fails to start
Blown fuse or open circuit breaker
Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker.
Overload trip 
Check and reset overload.
Improper wiring or connections 
Check wiring with diagram supplied on unit.
Improper current supply 
Compare actual supply power with motor nameplate 
recommendations. Contact power company for adjustments.
Mechanical failure 
Check that motor and drive rotate freely. Check bearing lubricant.
Motor stalls
Open phase 
Check line for an open phase.
Overloaded motor 
Reduce load or replace with larger motor.
Low line voltage 
Check across AC line. Correct voltage if possible.
Excessive vibration
Poor alignment 
Align bearing set screws (see Figure 49). Loosen and retighten 
bearing set screws.
Bolts not removed. 
Remove bolts (see the “Isolator Adjustment” section on page 24).
Over tensioned belts 
Adjust belt tension.
Misaligned drive 
Align drive.
Motor runs and then 
dies down 
Partial loss of line voltage 
Check for loose connections. Determine adequacy of main power 
supply.
Starter shorts when motor warms up 
Replace starter.
Motor does not come 
up to speed
Low voltage at motor terminals 
Check across AC line and correct voltage loss if possible.
Line wiring to motor too small 
Replace with larger sized wiring.
Motor overheats
Overloaded motor 
Reduce load or replace with a larger motor.
Motor fan is clogged with dirt preventing proper 
ventilation 
Remove fan cover, clean fan and replace cover.
Excessive motor 
noise
Motor mounting bolts loose 
Tighten motor mounting bolts.
Rigid coupling connections 
Replace with flexible connections.
Worn motor bearings 
Replace bearings and seals.
Fan rubbing on fan cover 
Remove interference in motor fan housing.
Rapid motor bearing 
wear
Excessive overhung load due to overtensioned 
drive 
Check belt tension and overhung load.
Excessive overhung load due to a small diameter 
motor sheave 
Replace sheave with larger one.
Loose fan belt
Motor is poorly positioned 
Adjust belt tension.
Worn or damaged belt 
Replace belt or belt set. Check sheave alignment.
Worn sheaves

 WARNING
Hazardous Service 
Procedures!
The maintenance and 
troubleshooting procedures 
recommended in this section of the 
manual could result in exposure to 
electrical, mechanical or other 
potential safety hazards. Always 
refer to the safety warnings provided 
throughout this manual concerning 
these procedures. When possible, 
disconnect all electrical power
including remote disconnects before 
servicing. Follow proper lockout/
tagout procedures to ensure the 
power can not be inadvertently 
energized. When necessary to work 
with live electrical components, 
have a qualified licensed electrician 
or other individual who has been 
trained in handling live electrical 
components perform these tasks. 
Failure to follow all of the 
recommended safety warnings 
provided, could result in death or
