Figure 8.3 Drive Installation Space (Side-by-Side Mounting)
Note:
• If the dimensions of the drives differ when using a side-by-side installation, then line up the tops of all the drives. This makes it easier
to replace the cooling fan later.
• If mounting an enclosed wall-mounted type (UL Type 1) drive using a side-by-side installation, completely remove the top protective
cover for the drive. Refer to “Attach the Top Protective Cover” to remove the top protective cover.

◆ Using the Hanging Brackets to Move the Drive
Use the hanging brackets attached to the drive to temporarily lift the drive when you install the drive to a control
panel or wall or when you replace the drive. Do not let the drive stay vertically or horizontally suspended or move
the drive over a long distance while it is suspended.
Before you install the drive, make sure that you read these precautions:
WARNING
Crush Hazard. Before you hang the drive vertically, use screws to correctly attach the drive front cover and
other drive components. If you do not secure the front cover, it can fall and cause minor injury.
WARNING
Crush Hazard. When you use a crane or hoist to lift the drive during installation or removal, prevent more than
1.96 m/s
2
(0.2 G) vibration or impact. Too much vibration or impact can cause serious injury or death from falling equipment.
WARNING
Crush Hazard. When you lift the drive during installation or removal, do not try to turn the drive over and do
not ignore the hanging drive. If you move a hanging drive too much or if you ignore it, the drive can fall and cause serious injury
or death.
WARNING
Crush Hazard. When you install the drive, do not hold the front cover. Install the drive with holding the
heatsink. If you hold the front cover, the cover will come off and the drive will fall, then it can cause injury.
