Default OT motor speed question


wrote in message
ups.com...
the motor has been replaced with a new one with a different speed - the
hp would be irrelevent. check the plate on the motor to see if the
speeds match the old one - or contcat the motor manufacturers - give
them the model nos.. etc - they should be able to tell you if there is
any difference in speeds or if you have the wrong motor. in nay case
get the tech back out.


Gentlemen, read the post. It's a treadmill motor with no intrinsic speed,
rather it's controlled by something else which was not replaced.

This means the must have been some change in the mechanics, or the
controller, calibrated to the old, needs to be recalibrated to the new, with
its higher draw.
