1This guide is applicable to the global product types. There is a separate guide for the North American product types.Safety instructionsWARNING! Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or damage to the equipment can occur. Ifyou are not a qualified electrical professional, do not do electrical installation or maintenance work.• Do not do work on the drive, motor cable, motor, or control cables when the drive is connected to the input power.Before you start the work, isolate the drive from all dangerous voltage sources and make sure that it is safe to start thework. Always wait for 5 minutes after disconnecting the input power to let the intermediate circuit capacitorsdischarge.• Do not do work on the drive when a rotating permanent magnet motor is connected to it. A rotating permanentmagnet motor energizes the drive, including its input and output terminals.• Frames R1…R2, IP21(UL Type 1): Do not lift thedrive by holding it from thecover. The cover can comeloose and cause the drive tofall.• Frames R5…R9: Do not tilt thedrive. The drive is heavy andhas a high center of gravity. Itcan topple accidentally.• Frames R5…R9: Lift the drivewith a lifting device. Use thelifting eyes of the drive.1. Unpack the deliveryKeep the drive in its package until you are ready to install it. After unpacking, protect the drive from dust, debris andmoisture. Make sure that these items are included:• cable box (frames R1…R2 and R5…R9, IP21 [UL Type 1])• drive• mounting template• control panel• quick installation and start-up guide• multilingual residual voltage warning stickers• hardware and firmware manuals, if ordered• options in separate packages, if ordered.Make sure that there are no signs of damage to the items.2. Reform the capacitorsIf the drive has not been powered up for a year or more, you must reform the DC link capacitors. Refer toCapacitorreforming instructions (3BFE64059629 [English]).Documentation in other languages Ecodesign information (EU 2019/1781) About this document3AXD50000527052 Rev A EN2021-04-30© 2021 ABB.
