I just bought a floor model of a jet midi (looks like its never been used) and a 60 degree live center from craft supplies USA and the 60 degree live center gets too hot to touch after a few minutes of turning. I am going to call them and make sure its rated for 4K rpm's but I've talked to them about it already and they say it shouldnt be happening. I also felt the underside of the motor tonight and it was a bit too hot to touch as well. Could I be making the belt too tight and causing too much heat in the motor and center at the same time ? Is the motor normally supposed to be too hot to touch comfortably ? Is it possible its already going out ?
Any help would be great !
