Electrical items that have had power applied to them may not be returned. Motors that have been modified may not be returned. (Modified means, but not limited to, cutting the shaft, cutting the wires or plug, cutting through bolts, etc.) Please do not write all over the factory box as that makes the item unsellable to anyone else. The customer is responsible for any shipping cost incurred on duplicate orders that they have placed. Our orders are automated and as such we do not always catch these errors.

Note: Most motor failures are caused by improper voltage being applied to the motor (not wired correctly) or too small of horsepower for the application. All of the motors we sell have a connection diagram on the motor name plate. Be sure to read it carefully. If you are unsure what needs to be done, then you should call a qualified electrician. Most motors that have been returned to us that are supposedly defective, where the purchaser claims the motor does not operate properly, we have found upon our inspection that the motor is not defective but has not been installed correctly, either through improper wiring , the wire size or length is not correct, or circuit is not large enough for the motor amperage.
