Rolling bearing faults
Damage to rolling bearings can be difficult to detect in some cases. If in doubt, replace the rolling
bearing. Use other bearing designs only after consulting the manufacturer.

Remedial measures
Establish the cause and realign the parts.
Disconnect the rotor or coupling and rebalance.
If the machine has two shaft ends, and a transmission element is only
fitted to one end, secure the fitted key at the other end to prevent it
from being thrown out. If the rotor has balance type "H" (standard
type), the fitted key must be cut back to roughly half of its length.
Consult the manufacturing plant.
Align the machine set; check the coupling.
Rebalance the coupled machine.
Investigate the coupled machine.
Fix the gearing.
Stabilize the foundation following consultation.
Establish the cause of the changes and eliminate them if necessary;
realign the machine.
Remedial measures
Align the machine more accurately.
Reduce the drive belt tension.
Clean or replace the bearing. Check the seals.
Use a suitable high-temperature grease.
Grease the bearings as instructed.
Contact the service center.
