■ Bolt torques
Endshields and lid should be secured with the bolt
sizes and torque’s detailed in the table below.

■ Maintenance
R
outine cleaning of the FC motor
Remove the fan cover and ensure that all air inlet holes
are completely free. Clean any dirt and obstructions
from behind the fan and along the ribs of the frame,
and between the motor and inverter part.
P
eriodic maintenance of motor part.
a. Remove the inverter part, the fan cover and
the fan which is keyed to the shaft extension.
Loosen and remove bearing cover screws and
endshield bolts/studs.The endshields should
then be eased off their spigots.
b. The rotor can now be carefully withdrawn from
the stator, taking care not to damage the stator
bore and both stator and rotor windings.
c. Having dismantled the motor, maintenance can be
carried out to remove all dirt. For this purpose,
the use of an air line supplying dry compressed
air under comparatively low pressure is best, as
a high velocity air-stream can force dirt into the
spaces between the windings and insulation, etc.
Grease-removing solvents can cause damage
to impregnating varnish or insulation
d. The FC-motor should be re-assembled in the
reverse order from dismantling, remember
ing
to ease endshields onto bearings and spigots.
DO NOT USE FORCE.
e. Before starting, check that the rotor rev
olves freely.
Ensure that the electrical connections are correct.
f. Refit any pulley, coupling, sprocket etc. which
has been removed, being particular
ly careful to
ensure correct alignment with the driven part,
as misalignment will lead to ultimate bearing
trouble and shaft breakage.
g. When replacing screws and bolts, care should be
taken to use only those with the requisite quality and
tensile strength recommen
ded by the manufacturer.
These must also be of identical thread form and
screw/bolt length (see the table above).
