The left side main shaft bearing on cr940 running hot to touch. Is this normal or not. Greased bearing but no change. Everything looks ok. ( this is driven shaft just off of engine gearbox with 4 band belt. Does anyone have a cr940-970 that can check temp by touch on their machine? Thanks for the help.

Checked with IR therm. and running at 200-208 deg F. measuring on the bearing housing. This is in chest high drilled beans w 30' head and power level at 95-115%. Does seem to be normal, but am keeping an eye on it and have new bearings in case of problems.
