General instructions
Caution
Uncontrolled drive motion may cause personal injury and material damage.
•
Switch off the
power supplies
prior to any assembly, installation or maintenance
work and prevent them from being restarted accidentally.
Caution
If a drive is mounted in a sloping or vertical position, loads may fall and cause personal
injury.
•
Check whether external safety measures are necessary (e.g. toothed latches or
moveable bolts).
This will prevent the work load from sliding suddenly if there is a voltage failure.
Note
When mounting the controller on the machine:
•
Observe the IP protection class of the controller and the connectors/cables.
Also observe the operating instruction(s) for the drive and the instructions provided with
any additional components (e.g. assembly instructions for the cables concerning bending
radii or suitability for use with energy chains).
