Before we start,  make sure to get a copy of the owner’s manual which you can download at www.sonnysdirect.com and review all the safety information related to this procedure.


   Gather the tools and supplies you’ll need which are:

  •   Safety Glasses
  •   8-foot step ladder
  •   Grease Gun loaded with electric motor grease

Once you have everything ready the first thing you need to do is: 

  1. The electric motor needs to be greased once a year with electrical motor grease such as Mobil Polyrex Em.
  2. The motor needs only 1-2 pumps of grease into the front and rear bearing grease fittings.


Note Most new motors that Sonnys provides are non-serviceable and do not require grease yearly.
