Safety precautions

The precautions described below are intended to prevent danger or
injury to the user and other personnel through safe, correct use of the
product. Use the product only after carefully reading and fully
understanding these instructions.

Note

Handling the product without observing the
instructions that accompany a “Warning” symbol may
result in serious injury or death.

Handling the product without observing the
instructions that accompany a “Caution” symbol may
result in injury or property damage.

The items under this heading contain important
handling instructions that the user should observe to
ensure safe use of the product.

 Do not use the product in explosive or corrosive environments,

in the presence of flammable gases, in water, or near
combustibles. Doing so may result in fire, electric shock or
injury.

 Assign qualified personnel the task of installing, wiring,

operating/controlling, inspecting and troubleshooting the
product. Failure to do so may result in fire, electric shock or
injury.

 Do not transport, install the product, perform connections or

inspections when the power is on. Always turn the power off
before carrying out these operations. Failure to do so may
result in electric shock.

 Turn off the power in the event the overheat protection device

(thermal protector) is triggered. Failure to do so may result in
injury or damage to equipment, since the motor will start
abruptly when the overheat protection device (thermal
protector) is automatically reset.

 To prevent the risk of electric shock, use the motor for class I

equipment only.
Motore zur Verwendung in Geräten der Schutzklasse I.

 When installing the motor, ground the motor using a protective

grounding wire. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.

Erden Sie den Motor bei der Installation mit einem
Schutzerdungskabel. Nichtbeachtung dieses Hinweises könnte einen
elektrischen Schlag verursachen.

 If the product is used in a place where it may come in contact

with water during operation, provide an earth leakage breaker.
Failure to do so may result in electric shock.

 Keep the input-power voltage within the specification to avoid

fire and electric shock.

 Connect the cables securely according to the wiring diagram in

order to prevent fire and electric shock.

 Do not forcibly bend, pull or pinch the cables. Doing so may

result in fire and electric shock.

 Be sure to insulate the connection terminal of the capacitor.

Failure to do so may result in electric shock.

 Turn off the power in the event of a power failure, or the motor

will suddenly start when the power is restored and may cause
injury or damage to equipment.

 Do not touch the connection terminal of the capacitor

immediately after the power is turned off (for a period of 30
seconds). The residual voltage may cause electric shock.

 Do not disassemble or modify the motor. This may cause

electric shock or injury.

 Do not use the motor beyond its specifications, or electric

shock, injury or damage to equipment may result.

 Do not touch the motor during operation or immediately after

stopping. The surface is hot and may cause a burn.

 Do not hold the motor output shaft or motor cable. This may

cause injury.

 Keep the area around the motor free of combustible materials

in order to prevent fire or a burn.

1

To prevent the risk of damage to equipment, leave nothing



around the motor that would obstruct ventilation.

 To prevent bodily injury, do not touch the rotating parts (output

shaft) of the motor during operation.

 When an abnormality is noted, turn off the power immediately,

or fire, electric shock or injury may occur.

 The motor’s surface temperature may exceed

70 °C, even under normal operating conditions.
If a motor is accessible during operation, post
the warning label shown in the figure in a
conspicuous position to prevent the risk of

Warning label

burns.

 To dispose of the motor, disassemble it into parts and

components as much as possible and dispose of individual
parts/components as industrial waste.
