safety precautions

EnglishB1 B2Safety PrecautionsThe following explanations are for things that must be observed in order to preventharm to people and damage to property.■ Misuses that could result in harm or damage are shown as follows, classifiedaccording to the degree of potential harm or damage.Danger Indicates great possibility of death or serious injury.Caution Indicates the possibility of injury or property damage.Safety precaution in transportation and opening package.CautionDo not drop or topple products. Preventing damagesConfirm top and bottom of product before opening package. Preventing injury, damagesPlease follow instructions of cargo handling label. Preventing injury, damagesSafety precaution in installationDangerDo not install the product where vibration or shock exceedsproduct specifications. Cause of damagesPlease do not install in environments where foreign matter such asdust, metal powder, oil mist etc. exists. Cause of fire, damagesDo not install products in environments where liquids such aswater, oil and grinding fluid may adhere.Cause of electric shock,damagesDo not install near combustibles. And do not store and install incorrosive gas or flammable gas atmosphere. Cause of fire, damagesDo not put your hands in the brushless amplifier. Cause of burns, damagesor electric shocks.Do not install near the heating element. Cause of fire, damagesInstall in an environment with pollution degree 2 or pollutiondegree 1.Preventing fire, electricshock or damages.Install on incombustible materials such as metal. Preventing fireConfirm the direction of rotation before installing in the machine. Preventing injuryInstall an external emergency stop device to shut down the mainpower source in any emergency. Preventing injury, fire.When used in a clean room or the like, take measures againstsmoke and dust.Preventing harm caused bysmoke and dustInstall an overcurrent protection device, an earth leakage circuitbreaker, and an overheat prevention device.Preventing fire, injury,electric shock or damages.Be sure to ground the ground wire (terminal) with the specified method. Preventing electric shock.Please install it firmly to prevent fire and injury in case ofearthquake.Preventing fire, injury, electricshock damages or breakage.When installing in the vicinity of the vibration source, use avibration isolator on the mounting surface.Preventing damages,breakage.Safety precaution in installation (continued)CautionDo not use the product except for specified combination ofbrushless motor and brushless amplifier. Cause of damages, breakage.Do not use / store in direct sunlight. Cause of damages, breakage.Do not place obstacles that block ventilation around the brushlessamplifier. Cause of damages.Appropriate installation according to product weight shall beperformed.Preventing damages,breakage.Before attaching the motor to the mechanical system, confirm theoperation with the motor fixed. Preventing injury.Before turning on the power supply, confirm that the input supplyvoltage is within the rated range.Preventing fire, injury,electric shock.Please follow the instructions for installation method andinstallation direction. Preventing damages.Brushless motors and brushless amplifiers generate heat duringoperation. Even considering this amount of heat, set the ambienttemperature measured at the specified point within the allowableambient temperature range.Preventing damages.Do not drop or topple products. Preventing damages.Safety precaution in wiringDangerDo not scratch the cable, apply excessive force, place heavyobjects, or pinch it.Cause of fire, electric shockdamages or breakage.Do not use cables when immersed in water or oil. Cause of fire, electric shock.Do not wire with wet hands. Cause of fire, electric shock.Do not connect commercial power directly to brushless motorcables (U, V, W).Cause of fire, damages orbreakage.When inserting the electric wire into a metal duct etc., theallowable electric current of the electric wire is lowered due to thetemperature rise, so the electric wire is selected after studying thecurrent reduction coefficient.Preventing fire, electricshock or damages.Wiring has to be carried out by the qualified and authorisedspecialist.Preventing fire, injury,electric shock, or breakage.Connect cables reliably. Insulate the conductive part with aninsulator. And fix the cable so that any stress is not applied to theconnection part such as the connector or terminal block.Preventing fire, electricshock.Conductive material such as electric wire scraps should not getinside the product.Preventing fire, electricshock.Turn off the power when wiring or disconnecting wiring. Preventing electric shock,damages.Wire the motor wires (U, V, W) and the CS signal wires correctly. Preventing injury,damages, or breakage.CautionCommercial power supply should be used for power supply ofbrushless amplifier. Preventing damages.When connecting the grounding terminal of the extension cable,use a terminal block or an insulation sleeve for insulation. Preventing electric shock.
