4. General precautions
Always follow the precautions below. Incorrect handling could result in faults, injuries or electric shocks, etc.
(1) Transportation and installation
CAUTION
Correctly transport the products according to the mass.
Use motor’s suspension bolts to transport the motor itself. Do not use it to transport the motor after
installation onto the machine.
Do not stack the products exceeding the indicated limit.
Do not hold the cables, shaft or detector when transporting the motor.
Do not transport the controller or drive unit by suspending or holding the connected wires or cables.
Do not hold the front cover when transporting the unit, or the front cover could come off, causing the
unit to drop.
Install on a non-combustible place where the unit’s or motor’s mass can be withstood according to
the instruction manual.
The motor does not have a complete water-proof (oil-proof) structure. Do not allow oil or water to
contact or enter the motor. Prevent the cutting chips from being accumulated on the motor as they
easily soak up oil.
When installing the motor facing upwards, take measures on the machine side so that gear oil, etc.,
will not enter the motor shaft.
Do not remove the detector from the motor. (The detector installation screw is treated with sealing.)
Do not allow foreign matters, especially, conductive foreign matters such as screws or metal chips,
or combustible foreign matters such as oil, to enter the controller, drive unit or motor. Failure to
observe this could result in rupture or damage.
Do not get on the product or place heavy objects on it.
Provide prescribed distance between the controller/drive unit and inner surface of the control
panel/other devices.
Do not install or operate the controller, drive unit or motor that is damaged or has missing parts.
Take care not to cut hands, etc. with the heat radiating fins or metal edges.
Do not block the intake/outtake ports of the motor with the cooling fan.
Install the controller’s display section and operation board section on the spot where cutting oil will
not reach.
