Hi folks,

I can not work more, becasue of the problems with motor. It does not work.

I have this one https://www.mrosupply.com/motors/ac-motors/general-purpose-motors/1311213_00118es3ed56cfl_weg/

All technical specifications are the same too.

Who can advice how to test it and repair.

Re: advice about the motor change *LINK*

You do not provide much information for others to assist.

The motor in the link is a 3 phase motor, so likely you have an inverter or VFD to convert single phase power to 3 phase for the motor.

If you have an inverter does it display and error message?

What testing tools do you have available? Have you tested that power is going to the inverter and from the inverter to the motor?

The site has a number of threads on inverter problems. The link is a recent example.
