GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
RETAIN FOR FUTURE USE
1. Importance of the operating instructions
These operating instructions are intended to provide general
information and safety guidelines. It is the responsibility of
the buyer, machine builder, installer and user of the NORD
product to make sure that all the proper safetynotes and op-
erating instructions have been reviewed and understood. If
the contents of this instruction or any applicable operating
instructions are not understood, please consult NORD.
WARNING
Electric motors, gearmotors, electrical brakes, variable
frequency drives, and gear reducers contain potentially
dangerous high-voltage, rotating-components and
surfaces that may become hot during operation. All work
involved in the transport, connection, commissioning and
maintenance of any NORD product must be carried out by
qualifi ed and responsible technicians.
2. Inspect incoming freight
Before accepting shipment from the freight company,
thoroughly inspect the NORD equipment for any shipping
and handling damage. If any goods called for in the bill of
lading or express receipt are damaged, or if the quantity is
short, do not accept until the freight express agent makes an
appropriate notation on your freight bill or express receipt. If
any concealed loss or damage is discovered later, notify your
freight carrier or express agent at once, and request a formal
review of your claim.
Claims for loss or damage in shipment must not be deducted
from the NORD invoice, nor should payment of the NORD
invoice be withheld awaiting adjustment of such claims, as
the carrier guarantees safe delivery. NORD will try to assist in
collecting claims for loss or damage during shipment; how-
ever, this willingness on our part does not remove the trans-
portation company’s responsibility in reimbursing you for col-
lection of claims or replacement of material.
3. Obtaining detailed operating instructions
One can receive the detailed installation and maintenance
instructions by entering a serial number (or NORD order
number) at the appropriate location on the NORD web site.
i. Record the serial number from your gearmotor, gear
reducer, or motor nameplate, or record the serial number
found on your order confi rmation.
ii. Go to www.nord.com/docs to download the appropriate
operating instructions.
