Excessive heat Overload
Holding brake not released
Heavy pollution
Reduce load
Check the holding brake controller
Clean the motor
Encoder does not operate or
only operates sporadically
Encoder damaged due to axial movement
of the motor shaft (maximum axial load
exceeded)
Verify that the permissible axial force is not
exceeded.
