  Fiber optic cables 
 
WARNING! Handle the fiber optic cables with care. When unplugging 
optic cables, always grab the connector, not the cable itself. Do not 
touch the ends of the fibers with bare hands as the fiber is extremely 
sensitive to dirt. The minimum allowed bend radius is 35 mm (1.4 in.). 
 
Mechanical installation 
 
  These notes are intended for all who install the drive. Handle the unit 
carefully to avoid damage and injury.   
 
 
•  DCS800 sizes D4...D7: The drive is heavy. Do not lift it alone. Do 
not lift the unit by the front cover. Place units D4 and D5 only on its 
back.   
 
DCS800 sizes D5...D7: The drive is heavy. Lift the drive by the lift-
ing lugs only. Do not tilt the unit. The unit will overturn from a tilt of 
about 6 degrees. 
  •  Make sure that dust from drilling does not enter the drive when in-
stalling. Electrically conductive dust inside the unit may cause 
damage or lead to malfunction. 
  •  Ensure sufficient cooling. 
  •  Do not fasten the drive by riveting or welding. 
 
Operation 
 
  These warnings are intended for all who plan the operation of the drive 
or operate the drive. Ignoring the instructions can cause physical injury 
or death or damage the equipment. 
 
 
•  Before adjusting the drive and putting it into service, make sure 
that the motor and all driven equipment are suitable for operation 
throughout the speed range provided by the drive. The drive can 
be adjusted to operate the motor at speeds above and below the 
base speed. 
  •  Do not activate automatic fault reset functions of the Standard Ap-
plication Program if dangerous situations can occur. When acti-
vated, these functions will reset the drive and resume operation af-
ter a fault. 
  •  Do not control the motor with the disconnecting device (discon-
necting mains); instead, use the control panel keys 
 and  , or 
commands via the I/O board of the drive.
