RE: Thanks to all! How much motor "heat" can I expect?

I'm currently test-running my newly cleaned-and-lubricated Lenco motor....I found another brand of grease, that's supposed to be a little more all-round than the Shell Alvania EP(LF)2...the Shell brand had a dark-brown color, while the new grease is more transparent. I can't find the Mobile 1 brand here in Umeå, Sweden. Does anyone know how hot this Lenco motor can get? In other words, how much heat is "safe"? When do I risk burning the coils?

I'm concerned with this, because I read that the Lenco motor draws more current with increased mechanical loads....so I guess lubrication is pretty important, here.
