Care & Maintenance
Environments with high ambient temperatures require closer attention to care and use. In order to
achieve optimal motor performance consider the following:
• Clean Power–The use of a reliable, consistent power supply will help minimize voltage uctuations
that can be harmful to the motor.
• Ambient Temperature–As the ambient temperature rises, so does the need for cooling. When used
in high ambient temperature conditions, operators should run the motor under no load for 10 to 15
seconds periodically during the shift to enable ambient air to pass through the motor and cool the
internal parts. Frequency and duration of cooling periods are dependent on the ambient temperature.
If using in conjunction with Elliott ELC110220, this practice will not adversely affect the performance
of the controller.
• Cooling Motors–In the event that conditions are so extreme that the cooling recommendation above is
not sufcient, operators should consider implementing a multiple motor system where motors are run
for a short period of time then allowed to rest while a secondary motor is put into service. Alternating
motors in this manner will allow the motor to cool and avoid damage due to overheating.
• Internal Operation Temperature–The operating temperature of the internal components must not
reach 284 degrees Fahrenheit (140 degrees Celsius).
To ensure years of reliable operation, follow these simple care and maintenance suggestions:
• Keep the motor clean and free of dirt and other contaminants.
• Do not allow contaminants inside the motor housing.
• When the brush lengths are .25” (6.35mm) or less, brushes need to be replaced. (See instructions
below.) Brushes should be replaced by a maintenance technician. They must be run in by a 20 minute
idle run of the tool. Also, the condition of the commutator must be checked. In case of irregular color-
ing of the individual blades and surface crashes, send the tool to an authorized service center.
