General safety in installation, start-up and maintenance
These instructions are for all personnel who do work on the drive.
WARNING!
Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or damage to the
equipment can occur.
• Keep the drive in its package until you install it. After unpacking, protect the drive
from dust, debris and moisture.
• Use the required personal protective equipment: safety shoes with metal toe cap,
safety glasses, protective gloves and long sleeves, etc. Some parts have sharp
edges.
• Lift a heavy drive with a lifting device. Use the designated lifting points. See the
dimension drawings.
• Incorrect lifting can cause danger or damage. Obey the local laws and regulations
applicable to lifting, such as requirements for planning the lift, for capacity and
condition of lifting equipment, and for training of personnel.
• Attach the drive cabinet to the floor to prevent it from toppling over. The cabinet
has a high center of gravity. When you pull out heavy components or power
modules, there is a risk of overturning. Attach the cabinet also to the wall when
necessary.
• Be careful when handling a tall module. The module overturns easily because it is
heavy and has a high center of gravity. Whenever possible, secure the module with
chains. Do not leave an unsupported module unattended especially on a sloping
floor.
