Safety instructions
General safety instructions
These safety instructions are intended for all personnel who work on the drive. For complete safety in-
structions, see the drive hardware manuals.
Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or damage to the equipment can occur.
If you are not a qualified electrical professional, do not do installation or maintenance work.
WARNING!
Make sure that the drive and all adjoining equipment are properly grounded.
Do not do any maintenance on powered drive.
After disconnecting the input power, always wait for 5 minutes to let the intermedi-
ate circuit capacitors discharge before you start working on the drive, motor or mo-
tor cable.
Measure that the installation is de-energized. Use a quality voltage tester. Before and
after you measure the installation, verify the operation of the voltage tester on a
known voltage source.
WARNING!
If the demo unit is operated within the transportation enclosure, note that the motors
and drives have less air available for cooling, which may result in overheating.
WARNING!
The democase is intended for demo purposes only. Using democase as a part of any pro-
cess or application other than the intended demo use is strictly prohibited. Never remove
the cover of the motor shaft or connect a load to it.
WARNING!
The democase (demo drive inside transportation case) is a heavy item, see the weights in
the Technical data section. Follow the lifting instructions found inside the democase. Lift-
ing the democase requires two persons. Do not lift the democase alone!
General guidelines for safe lifting
Get as close to the load as possible.
Keep your elbows and arms close to your body.
Keep your back straight during the lift by tightening the stomach muscles, bending at the
knees, keeping the load close and centered in front of you, and looking up and ahead.
Get a good grip and do not twist while lifting.
Do not jerk; use a smooth motion while lifting.
If the load is too heavy to allow this, find someone to help you with the lift.
Do not lift more than 25 kg or 50 pounds.
