1.2 WARNING

WARNING
- Be safely dressed when handling a motor.
Wear safety shoes or gloves when handling a motor as you may get hurt on any edge or protrusion on it or electric shocks.
- Use a crane or lift to move a motor from one place to another.
A motor is heavy. If you lift the motor by hand, you may get a backache, or you may be seriously injured when you drop the motor. A suitable crane or lift must be used to move the motor. (For the weight of motors, refer to Chapter II-2 “SPECIFICATIONS.”) When moving a motor using a crane or lift, use a hanging bolt if the motor has a corresponding tapped hole, or textile rope if it has no tapped hole. If a motor is attached with a machine or any other heavy stuff, do not use a hanging bolt to move the motor as the hanging bolt and/or motor may get broken.
- Before starting to connect a motor to electric wires, make sure they are isolated from an electric power source.
A failure to observe this caution is vary dangerous because you may get electric shocks.
- Be sure to secure power wires.
If operation is performed with a terminal loose, the terminal block may become abnormally hot, possibly causing a fire. Also, the terminal may become disconnected, causing a ground fault or short­circuit, and possibly giving you electric shocks. See the section in this manual that gives the tightening torque for attaching power wires and short-bars to the terminal block.
JDOWLING
- Be sure to ground a motor frame.
To avoid electric shocks, be sure to connect the grounding terminal in the terminal box to the grounding terminal of the machine.
- Do not ground a motor power wire terminal or short-circuit it to another power wire terminal.
A failure to observe this caution may cause electric shocks or a burned wiring. * Some motors require a special connection such as a winding
JR AUTOMATION TECHNOLOGIES INC*
switching. Refer to their respective motor specification manuals for details.
- Do not supply the power to the motor while any terminal is exposed.
A failure to observe this caution is very dangerous because you may get electric shocks if your body or any conductive stuff touches an exposed terminal.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS B-65372EN/01
WARNING
- Do not bring any dangerous stuff near a motor.
Motors are connected to a power line, and may get hot. If a flammable is placed near a motor, it may be ignited, catch fire, or explode.
- Do not get close to a rotary section of a motor when it is rotating.
You may get your clothes or fingers caught in a rotary section, and may be injured. Before starting a motor, ensure that there is no stuff that can fly away (such as a key) on the motor.
- Do not touch a motor with a wet hand.
A failure to observe this caution is vary dangerous because you may get electric shocks.
- Before touching a motor, shut off the power to it.
Even if a motor is not rotating, there may be a voltage across the terminals of the motor. Especially before touching a power supply connection, take sufficient precautions. Otherwise you may get electric shocks.
- Do not touch any terminal of a motor for a while (at least 5 minutes) after the power to the motor is shut off.
High voltage remains across power line terminals of a motor for a while after the power to the motor is shut off. So, do not touch any terminal or connect it to any other equipment. Otherwise, you may get electric shocks or the motor and/or equipment may get damaged.
- To drive a motor, use a specified amplifier and parameters.
An incorrect combination of a motor, amplifier, and parameters may cause the motor to behave unexpectedly. This is dangerous, and the motor may get damaged.
- Before driving a motor, be sure to secure it.
If a motor is drove without being secured, it may roll over during acceleration or deceleration, injuring the user.

1.3 CAUTION

CAUTION
- Do not touch a motor when it is running or immediately after it stops.
A motor may get hot when it is running. Do not touch the motor before it gets cool enough. Otherwise, you may get burned.
- Be careful not get your hair or cloths caught in a fan.
Be careful especially for a fan used to generate an inward air flow. Be careful also for a fan even when the motor is stopped, because it continues to rotate while the amplifier is turned on.
- FANUC motors are designed for use with machines. Do not use them for any other purpose.
If a FANUC motor is used for an unintended purpose, it may cause an unexpected symptom or trouble. If you want to use a motor for an unintended purpose, previously consult with FANUC.
- Ensure that a base or frame on which a motor is mounted is strong enough.
Motors are heavy. If a base or frame on which a motor is mounted is not strong enough, it is impossible to achieve the required precision.
- Ensure that motors and related components are mounted securely.
If a motor or its component slips out of place or comes off when the motor is running, it is very dangerous.
- Be sure to connect motor cables correctly.
An incorrect connection of a cable cause abnormal heat generation, equipment malfunction, or failure. Always use a cable with an appropriate current carrying capacity (or thickness). For how to connect cables to motors, refer to their respective specification manuals.
- Ensure that motors are cooled if they are those that require forcible cooling.
If a motor that requires forcible cooling is not cooled normally, it may cause a failure or trouble. For a fan-cooled motor, ensure that it is not clogged or blocked with dust and dirt. For a liquid-cooled motor, ensure that the amount of the liquid is appropriate and that the liquid piping is not clogged. For both types, perform regular cleaning and inspection.
JDOWLING
JR AUTOMATION TECHNOLOGIES INC*
- When attaching a component having inertia, such as a pulley, to a motor, ensure that any imbalance between the motor and component is minimized.
If there is a large imbalance, the motor may vibrates abnormally, resulting in the motor being broken.

1.4 NOTE

NOTE
- Do not step or sit on a motor.
If you step or sit on a motor, it may get deformed or broken. Do not put a motor on another unless they are in packages.
- When storing a motor, put it in a dry (non-condensing) place at room temperature (0 to 40 °°°°C).
If a motor is stored in a humid or hot place, its components may get damaged or deteriorated. In addition, keep a motor in such a position that its shaft is held horizontal and its terminal box is at the top.
- Do not remove a nameplate from a motor.
If a nameplate comes off, be careful not to lose it. If the nameplate is lost, the motor becomes unidentifiable, resulting in maintenance becoming impossible. For a nameplate for a built-in spindle motor, keep the nameplate with the spindle.
- Do not apply shocks to a motor or cause scratches to it.
If a motor is subjected to shocks or is scratched, its components may be adversely affected, resulting in normal operation being impaired. Be very careful when handling plastic portions, sensors, and windings, because they are very liable to break. Especially, avoid lifting a motor by pulling its plastic portion, winding, or power cable.
- Do not conduct dielectric strength or insulation test for a sensor.
Such a test can damage elements in the sensor.
- When testing the winding or insulation resistance of a motor, satisfy the conditions stipulated in IEC34.
Testing a motor under a condition severer than those specified in IEC34 may damage the motor.
- Do not disassemble a motor.
Disassembling a motor may cause a failure or trouble in it. If disassembly is in need because of maintenance or repair, please contact a service representative of FANUC.
- Do not modify a motor.
Do not modify a motor unless directed by FANUC. Modifying a
JR AUTOMATION TECHNOLOGIES INC*
motor may cause a failure or trouble in it.
JDOWLING
- Use a motor under an appropriate environmental condition.
Using a motor in an adverse environment may cause a failure or trouble in it. Refer to their respective specification manuals for details of the operating and environmental conditions for motors.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS B-65372EN/01
NOTE
- Do not apply a commercial power source voltage directly to a motor.
Applying a commercial power source voltage directly to a motor may result in its windings being burned. Be sure to use a specified amplifier for supplying voltage to the motor.
- For a motor with a terminal box, make a conduit hole for the terminal box in a specified position.
When making a conduit hole, be careful not to break or damage unspecified portions. Refer to an applicable specification manual.
- Before using a motor, measure its winding and insulation resistances, and make sure they are normal.
Especially for a motor that has been stored for a prolonged period of time, conduct these checks. A motor may deteriorate depending on the condition under which it is stored or the time during which it is stored. For the winding resistances of motors, refer to their respective specification manuals, or ask FANUC. For insulation resistances, see the following table.
- To use a motor as long as possible, perform periodic maintenance and inspection for it, and check its winding and insulation resistances.
Note that extremely severe inspections (such as dielectric strength tests) of a motor may damage its windings. For the winding resistances of motors, refer to their respective specification manuals, or ask FANUC. For insulation resistances, see the following table.
MOTOR INSULATION RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT
Measure an insulation resistance between each winding and motor frame using an insulation resistance meter (500 VDC). Judge the measurements according to the following table.

6 Dynamic balance
During high-speed operation, a small imbalance may cause a large vibration, resulting in an unusual sound, premature bearing damage, or some other abnormality. Therefore, reduce the amount of the imbalance with the dynamic balance of the other rotation shafts, as well as the pulley mounted on the output shaft of the motor, as much as possible.
Balance correction
With the αCi series, a shaft with no key is used as standard to facilitate the balance correction of a pulley and coupling attached to the shaft. Use a completely symmetric pulley or coupling, and use a backlash-less tightening part such as a SPANN ELEMENTE to secure a pulley or coupling to the shaft. When attaching a pulley to a shaft, for example, adjust the periphery vibration to within 20 µm. This basically eliminates the need for balance correction. To further reduce the vibration level, make a field balance correction, for example, by tightening a screw into the tapped hole for balance correction provided on a component such as a pulley.
NOTE
When a shaft with a key is required, contact your FANUC sales representative.

NOTE
1 A foot mounting type motor has no oil seal. When an oil seal is
required, add #0002 to the drawing number of the motor. Example)
Model αC12/6000i (foot mounting type, with no key, rearward exhaust) A06B-1438-B200 A06B-1438-B200#0002 (with oil seal)
2 When the oil seal is not exposed to lubricant, remove the coil
spring of the oil seal to decrease the friction between the lip and shaft. There is no problem with dry dust sealing. If the motor is turned at high speed with the contact section between the oil seal and shaft being dry, the contact section can make an abnormal sound (interfering sound), or the lip can be damaged.

terminal box and open the hole. This time, pay attention not to break the other place except hole. (In some models, it is not necessary to make a hole.)
(2) Thread the cable through a conduit. Connect the conduit
with the connector. (*1)
(3) Tighten the connector at the cable hole of the terminal box
using a nut. (*2, *3)
(4) Connect each terminal appropriately in the terminal box
with screws.
When a hole once made is not used, purchase the following rubber bushing and mount it at the hole.

4.3 WHEN A MOTOR IS CONNECTED TO A SPINDLE VIA A
BELT
CAUTION
1 Mounting the pulley
The gap between the inner surface of the motor pulley and
output shaft should be 10µm to 15µm.
If the gap is large when the high-speed rotation (4500 min
fretting produced at the gap causes a large vibration, resulting in damage to the motor bearing.
As the vibration is intensified, fretting occurs in the gap
mentioned above, and the pulley and shaft can stick to each other.
To secure a pulley, use a friction-tightening part such as a
SPANN ELEMENTE or clamping sleeve.
NOTE
The SPANN ELEMENTE RfN8006 is manufactured by RINGFEDER. The clamping sleeve DSM is manufactured by SPIETH.

2 After attaching a pulley to the motor, adjust the vibration of the
belt groove to within 20 µm (T.I.R).
3 Before the belt is looped, FANUC recommends that the dynamic
balance (field balance) be corrected.
4 Limit the radial load applied to the motor output shaft by the
tension of the belt to the allowable value described in the manual for each series. If the allowable value is exceeded, the bearing or shaft may fail prematurely.
5 The tension of the belt is reduced as a result of abrasion during
the initial several hours of operation. To transfer torque normally after this reduction in tension, the initial tension before operation should be set to a value 1.3 times the actually required tension T.
Recommended belts:
Ribace manufactured by BANDO. Ribstar manufactured by MITSUBOSHI.

4.4 WHEN A MOTOR IS DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO A
SPINDLE VIA A COUPLING
CAUTION
1 Use a coupling which can absorb thermal expansion in the axial
direction of the motor mating shaft so that no load is applied in the motor axial direction. (Examples)
Diaphragm coupling (EAGLE INDUSTRY CO., LTD.)
Oldham's coupling
Leaf spring coupling
2 Set the torsional rigidity of the coupling to an appropriate high
value. If the torsional rigidity is low, vibration may be produced during orientation.
3 It is important to perform centering and obtain parallelism to
avoid having to recourse to the flexibility of the coupling. At high speeds, any eccentricity may cause the bearing to fail prematurely.
4 Check all machines before shipping to confirm that the vibration
acceleration is 0.5 G or less when measured using the method described in CAUTION 5 of Section 4.1.

Method of connection
<4>
<2>
Conductor
8 to 9mm
ConductorSheath
<3>
Screwdriver
<1>
Spring
Conductive plate
Peel-off length of a wire sheath
By using an appropriate tool, peel off each wire sheath by 8 to 9 mm.
Screwdriver
Use a flat-blade screwdriver with a blade size of 3.5 × 0.5 mm. (210-120J (standard type), 210-350J (short type) manufactured by WAGO)
Connection procedure
<1> Insert the tip of the screwdriver into the screwdriver insertion
slot (small rectangular hole) until the tip touches the spring. Next, while tilting the screwdriver toward the inside of the terminal block, push the screwdriver until it butts the conductive plate. In this state, the spring is opened completely, and the screwdriver is held in the terminal block. Ensure that the screwdriver is secured. Otherwise, the next step (wire insertion) cannot be conducted easily.
<2> Check the peel-off length (8 to 9 mm), then insert the wire into
the wire insertion slot (large rectangular hole) until it stops, by sliding the wire along the outer side of the hole slowly so that the conductor does not become loose. Be careful not to push a thin wire excessively.
<3> While holding down the inserted wire by one hand, extract the
screwdriver. The spring is closed to make a connection.
<4> By slightly pulling the wire, check that the wire is connected
firmly. The wire need not be pulled intensely.
Cautions
Only one wire must be connected to one spring.
A wire, which may be a stranded wire or single conductor, can

NOTE
1 When using a belt, adjust the tension so the
allowable loads indicated above are not exceeded. If an excessive load is applied, consider the use of a support bearing on the machine side to maintain the long-term reliability of the motor. (If an excessive load is applied, it is possible that an abnormal sound may occur.)
2 When the belt tension is maximized at a point
outside the output shaft end, the allowable loads are less than those at the output shaft end.
3 Never apply a thrust load.
