Good motor practices

[Micah Chetrit]

Hello,
Even though I am a senior, and graduating, I'd like to know what people think good motor practices are. Such as how do you store them? Clean them? Do people need to break them in? Other interesting tips? I'm interested in both large and small AC and DC motors. I know obvious stuff like don't stall them or overheat them, ect, but what about less obvious things?

Thanks!
