First, the motor is burned out

The motor is the driving force of the whole device. Once something goes wrong, it will not only affect production but also cost a lot to maintain, so farmers may as well use the power box to start the motor to protect the motor. Keep the area around the machine clean to avoid dust on the motor bearings. Do not use the device when the voltage is seriously low.
