PG-X3 Crimp Terminals
Yaskawa recommends using CRIMPFOX 6 by Phoenix Contact or equivalent crimp terminals with the specifications listed
in Table 7.10 for wiring to ensure proper connections.
Note: Properly trim wire ends so loose wire ends do not extend from the crimp terminals.

Replacing the Drive Covers and Digital Operator and Checking for Proper Motor Rotation
1.
Route the option wiring.
Depending on the drive model, some drives may require routing the wiring through the side of the front cover to the
outside
to provide adequate space for the wiring. In these cases, using diagonal cutting pliers, cut out the perforated
openings on the left side of the drive front cover. Sharp edges along the cut out should be smoothed down with a file
or sand paper to prevent any damage to the wires.
Route the communication wiring inside the enclosure for drives that do not require routing through the front cover.
Refer to Table 7.11 and Figure 7.13 to determine the proper wire routing by drive model.
