Lifting the Drive 
Use a safe and suitable lifting procedure when moving the drive. Never lift the drive by its terminal connections. Prepare a clear, flat surface to receive 
the drive before attempting to move it. Do not damage any terminal connections when putting the drive down.

Remove the shipping plate before wiring the power terminals.

the bracket fixings MUST be re-fitted. Refer to Appendix E: “Technical Specifications” - Termination Tightening Torques (Frame H). 
•  A shipping plate is fitted to the base to enable the drive to be set-on-end by a forklift. Remove the plate before wiring the power terminals.
