The module heatsink fins pick up dust from the cooling air. The drive runs into
overtemperature warnings and faults if the heatsink is not clean.

Cleaning the interior of the heatsink
WARNING! Obey the safety instructions in chapter Safety instructions . If
you ignore them, injury or death, or damage to the equipment can occur.
WARNING! Use a vacuum cleaner with antistatic hose and nozzle. Using a
normal vacuum cleaner creates static discharges which can damage circuit
boards.

18 before you start the work.
2. Make sure that the drive is disconnected from the power line and all other precautions
described under Grounding on page 20 have been taken into consideration.

4. Remove the handle plate.
5. Vacuum the interior of the heatsink from the opening.
6. Blow clean compressed air (not humid or oily) upwards from the opening and, at the
same time, vacuum from the top of the drive module.
