Hi Sam,
You will need to take out the whole element and send if for a complete overhaul - which includes repairing of the screw profiles, changing the bearings, etc, etc.
2600 hours is very little running hours for a screw element in a stationary compressor - usually they last for about 40.000 running hours.
The most common causes are:
- running in reverse direction - it will usually last only a few minutes
- severe overheating - usually due to blocked oil channels
Sorry I can't be of much more help here.
Good luck!
Cas
