proform 630 ds treadmill motor question - green-bananas - 04-12-2015

hi,
I'm trying to repair my wife's proform 630 ds treadmill. It will operate for about 10 minutes. But then it begins to smell like something is burning or melting. I took the cover to the motor off. The motor feels hot to the touch. I suspect the motor bearings are worn out which is probably why it will run for a few minutes.

Is there a way to test the motor? maybe use a voltmeter and see what the voltage drop is after it heats up?

The motor is almost 200. I'd like to make sure it is that before I buy one.

thank you
