Description of graphic symbols
Indicates "prohibited" actions that must not be performed.
Indicates "compulsory" actions that must be performed.
yDo not use the motor in explosive or corrosive environments, in
the presence of ammable gases, locations subjected to splashing
water, or near combustibles. This may cause re or injury.
yDo not forcibly bend, pull or pinch the motor lead wires or cable.
Doing so may result in re.
yDo not disassemble or modify the motor. This may cause injury.
yBe sure to insulate the connection terminals of the capacitor and
external resistor. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.
yDo not touch the connection terminals of the motor or capacitor
immediately (within 30 seconds) after the power is turned o. The
residual voltage may cause electric shock.
yAssign qualied personnel the task of installing, wiring, operating/
controlling, inspecting and troubleshooting the motor. Failure to
do so my result in re or injury.
Thank you for purchasing an Oriental Motor product. This Operating Manual
describes product handling procedures and safety precautions.
yPlease read it thoroughly to ensure safe operation.
yAlways keep the manual where it is readily available.
yTurn o the power in the event of a power failure. Or the motor
may suddenly start when the power is restored and may cause
injury or damage to equipment.
yTake measures to keep the moving parts in position for vertical
operations such as elevator applications. Failure to do so may result
in injury or damage to equipment.
yInstall the motor in an enclosure. Failure to do so may result in
injury.
yConnect the motor securely in accordance with the connection
example. Failure to do so may result in re.
yFor a power supply for DC excitation, use a DC power supply with
reinforced insulation on its primary and secondary sides. Failure to
do so may result in electric shock.
yDo not use the motor beyond its specications. This may cause
injury or damage to equipment.
yDo not touch the motor and external resistor during operation or
immediately after stopping. This may cause a skin burn(s).
yDo not carry the motor by holding the motor output shaft, motor
lead wires or cable. Doing so may cause injury.
yDo not use the motor near ammable objects. Doing so may result
in re or a skin burn(s).
yDo not leave anything around the motor that would obstruct
ventilation. Doing so may result in damage to equipment.
yDo not touch the rotating part (output shaft) during operation.
Doing so may cause injury.
yProvide a cover over the rotating parts (output shaft) of the motor.
Failure to do so may result in injury.
yProvide an emergency stop device or emergency stop circuit
external to the equipment so that the entire equipment will
operate safely in the event of a system failure or malfunction.
Failure to do so may result in injury.
yImmediately when trouble has occurred, stop running and turn o
the driver power. Failure to do so may result in re or injury.
yThe motor surface temperature may exceed 70 °C
(158 °F) even under normal operating conditions.
If the operator is allowed to approach the running
motor, attach a warning label as shown below in a
conspicuous position. Failure to do so may result in
skin burn(s).
Warning label
Precautions for use
•Do not give any constraint to the motor shaft.
If the motor shaft is constrained with a load torque exceeding the motor
torque, the motor cannot be started and a vibrating condition will occur,
resulting in a signicant decrease in motor life. Be sure to use a load torque
that is less than the motor torque.
•Grease leakage
On rare occasions, a small amount of grease may ooze out from the geared
motor. If there is concern over possible environmental damage resulting from
the leakage of grease, check for grease stains during regular inspections.
Alternatively, install an oil pan or other device to prevent leakage from
causing further damage. Oil leakage may lead to problems in the customer's
equipment or products.

Operate the motor by making sure the sum of the acceleration/deceleration
torque at the starting/stopping of the motor and the load (friction) torque
doesn’t exceed the allowable torque. Operating the motor in excess of the
allowable torque may result in a damaged gear part.
