◆ Cooling Fan Replacement Procedure
Replace cooling fans by using the following procedure. The general steps are given here. For details, contact your

WARNING! Electrical Shock Hazard. Do not connect or disconnect wiring while the power for the main circuit and controls is on.
Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury. Before starting inspection, disconnect the power supply to all

shutting off the power, wait for at least the amount of time specified on the drive before touching any components.
